Verona, Italy. May 6, 2026: Trackunit’s IrisX has secured another major industry award, with the global contech company recognized at Italy’s SaMoTer trade fair for its ability to “simplify operational flows”, winning the event’s key software application category.
“IrisX is part of the fundamental process of efficiency and cost control in a complex sector such as building construction, simplifying the management flow of operating machines from predictive maintenance to rational use in sectors such as rental,” said Costantino Radis, president of the SaMoTer Innovation Award.
“Companies must continue on this path if they want to remain competitive. They must use tools that simplify operational flows to keep everything under control,” he added, after a gala event held on the evening of May 5 in Verona.
“We’re delighted to be recognized by SaMoTer with this award,” said Federico Rio, senior VP of product at Trackunit. “It signals that IrisX stands out among global competitors as a meaningful step forward in digital construction technology.
That is not just a marketing claim, it’s peer-recognized progress,” added Rio. “It is further validation of IrisX and its role in helping the industry reduce downtime and improve operational performance.”
Launched in the second half of 2024, IrisX brings fragmented IoT and operational data together to unlock actionable insights, automate workflows, and accelerate the development of digital solutions for off-highway construction companies.
The platform integrates telematics, business systems, and OEM data into a single real-time operational view, harmonizing data and reducing silos. It also applies AI-powered analytics to deliver fleet insights, detect patterns, and accelerate time to value across fleets and the wider construction ecosystem.
“The contribution of AI to the construction industry is fundamental,” said Radis. “We are dealing with a huge number of variables and data points that are impossible to manage conventionally.
“AI enables us to manage processes more effectively, allowing greater focus on strategic decisions rather than data handling, while optimizing workflows,” he added.
