Shift from scheduled maintenance to condition-based decisions. Monitor engine hours, fluid temperatures, battery voltage, and fuel usage to catch developing issues before they escalate.

Reduce unnecessary site visits with remote diagnostics. Access fault codes remotely, assess whether equipment can continue operating safely, and dispatch technicians with the right parts.

Detect costly usage patterns early. Excessive idling wastes fuel and accelerates wear. Prolonged low-load operation causes wet stacking. Overloading stresses structural components and creates safety risks. Identify and correct these behaviors before they become safety or service events.

Create recurring revenue beyond the machine sale. Offer advanced capabilities through paid subscriptions or bundled service packages tied to ongoing equipment performance.

Cut costs with connected data. Surface excessive idling, anticipate parts demand, stage inventory, and give warranty teams the usage records they need to distinguish product issues from wear.

Trigger the right commercial conversation at the right time. Identify when a customer is ready for a larger unit, a maintenance plan, or an ownership conversation, based on data, not estimates.

Strengthen customer relationships over time. Ground every interaction in product performance and service delivery rather than periodic purchase cycles alone.

Rental is a major channel for industrial OEMs, and for some it is also a direct business. Streamline check-in and rental readiness. Replace manual processes with automated workflows that confirm asset location, operational status, and availability before every rental. Real-time ignition events and usage data give your team full visibility across the fleet.

Track every asset throughout the rental period. Know where equipment is, how it’s being used, and whether it’s approaching a service threshold. Engine hours replace manual meter reads, and geofence alerts surface late returns before they become disputes.

Protect assets and enforce contract terms. Remote commands restrict engine start after a contract expires or after curfew. When equipment goes missing, precise location data helps customers, dealers, and law enforcement respond immediately.

Improve margin on every transaction. Faster asset recovery, accurate billing, and better utilization compound across the portfolio. Turn rental data into smarter decisions on fleet mix, replacement timing, and future ownership conversations.

Getting connected equipment data into your applications requires two things: correct configurations for communicating with machines and raw data transformed into a format your applications can consume. Both take specialized knowledge and dedicated resources to build and maintain.

CalAmp handles both. DM, an intuitive device configuration tool centralizes and simplifies configuration of assets with SAE J1939 and Modbus connectivity. Datahub, decodes and enriches raw machine data and delivers standardized JSON directly to your platform.

Free your team to focus on core product development and get to market ahead of the competition.

Build test plans from real deployment data. Identify recurring fault conditions, uncover edge cases, and prioritize design improvements based on how machines actually perform across regions, environments, and use cases.

Refine validation with field evidence. Analyze operating hours, idle time, environmental conditions, and fault code trends to sharpen test plans and optimize future configurations.

Turn the same data into operational intelligence. Improve service readiness, parts forecasting, warranty analysis, and support strategies with visibility into real-world machine performance.
