Asset management and protection is the most established application for the use of location technology in today's market. Whether you need to track your mobile staff in the field in order to improve efficiency, or wish to protect against theft or misuse of an asset, then Trackaphone is the solution for you.

Trackaphone can track any mobile device on any network with a sim card, and can deliver access to anyone with an internet connection or suitably enabled handheld device, allowing you to map your solution to your organisation, rather than reorganising to accommodate the solution.

There are various methods of locating people and assets - Cell-ID, GPS, A-GPS, E-GPS, Matrix, Galileo, RF beaconing (RFID), and other emerging technologies, each with varying levels of accuracy, reliability and associated costs. GPS is accurate but not always reliable when under cover, Cell-ID is very reliable but lacks accuracy in rural areas. Often a combination of the technologies is the answer, which is why our platforms will support all of these on all mobile networks and multiples thereof to ensure you can choose the solution that is best for you.

Trackaphone is wholly independent from any network, technology or device. This means we are constantly exploiting the best available technologies to offer our customers choice and that Trackerphone does not need to impact on other decisions within your organisation such as mobile data strategy or mobile phone network selection

If you are working to a budget, Trackaphone can be tailored to exploit the devices you have already deployed, such as mobile phones, handheld devices, car phones or even existing GPS systems, to reduce your initial outlay and overall exposure. Some applications, however, will require specialist devices, such as asset theft prevention, lone worker protection, or if you have a GPS requirement you will need a GPS device.

In order to offer maximum flexibilty to our solution, Trackerphone can also deliver the People Locator platform on all mobile devices allowing managers to locate their staff even when they are away from a PC. This adds a powerful feature to delivering a solution that is managed in house.

The People Locator is a desktop application that enables you to locate and manage your organisation's mobiles. When you request the location of a mobile phone, Trackaphone retrieves the position from the mobile's network, and shows you the location on a map.

The People Locator gives you the ability to automate your location requests or 'pings' so you can review them later, or just to ping groups of mobiles at any time.

With our Advance service we can locate your people down to individual households, record all live events, generate emails, SMS and conference calls linked directly to the activated device and provide a full audit trail of events. We can set up schedules to automatically contact the right people at the right time whether it be on-duty personnel, or out of hours alarm response centres. All this functionality can be activated by the end user by: a touch of a button; failure to perform an expected action; or even automatically if they collapse. The platform also displays a detailed profile of the individual during the event. This is totally flexible and the actions can be altered to suit your organisation.
