Site Management Platform: Location into Live Rules and Alerts
How Enouvo built a site management platform for Australian civil infrastructure projects: every plant item, person and vehicle on one live map, a Rule Engine that turns location, speed and dwell into automatic events and instant SMS, email or push alerts, and time-machine playback of any minute of the working day.
The Challenge
Delivery moved fast and visibility was left behind. Plant, vehicles and crews were scattered across motorway, metro and rail sites with no single, real-time view of where anything was or whether it was working. Site rules about who can be where, how fast and for how long sat in supervisors' heads and paper forms, applied inconsistently and impossible to audit. Overspeed, incursions and missed cycles were pieced together after the fact, never raised automatically the moment they happened.
The Solution
Enouvo built a web platform that puts every project on one live map. Three kinds of resource get tracked: plant, people on foot, and people in vehicles, where a driver and their vehicle move as one combined resource, located from the in-cab unit or the mobile app, with live status, speed and signal.
- Live tracking and playback: assets move along the real road and work-area network with live trails, and a time machine replays exactly where every asset was, minute by minute, on any working day.
- Geofencing: work areas, haul roads, stockpiles and exclusion zones drawn on the map. This is the spatial input every rule reasons over.
- The Rule Engine: the core of the platform. It composes who (a driver-in-vehicle, plant or person), where (any geofenced area), how (speed band, enter or exit) and how long (dwell) into rules that fire events automatically. When a driver enters the tip zone at 0–5 km/h and stays under five minutes, the engine logs a "Dump" event and no one keys it in.
- Events and notifications: every rule-fired event, including overspeed, dwell, and area entries and exits, is logged with resource, rule, location and time, filterable and exportable for compliance review, with SMS, email or push to the right people the moment it fires.
- Reporting on the map: saved charts for utilisation, events and rule activity, pinned live over the map or shared with the team, so the insight sits where the work is rather than in a separate tool.
- Administration: onboard plant and OBD devices, define geofence layers and rule engines, configure notifications, and manage users, roles and project access from one settings surface.
How We Delivered
A phased rollout across roughly 17–19 weeks of core delivery: two weeks of discovery with site workshops covering rules, safety needs and data sources; three weeks designing the UX, geofence model and Rule Engine; an 8–10 week build of tracking, playback, the Rule Engine and reporting with fortnightly demos; then a four-week pilot on one live site with field hardware and crew training before portfolio-wide rollout.
Results
- One live map of everything: every plant item, person and vehicle visible across every site and supplier, with minute-by-minute playback.
- Rules turn movement into events: site rules moved out of supervisors' heads into an engine that captures the full event trail automatically, from enter and load to depart, arrive and dump, audit-ready with no paperwork.
- The right person, notified instantly: rule-fired alerts reach crews and supervisors by SMS, email or push the moment something matters, replacing end-of-day reconciliation.
