3 BIG ADVANTAGES OF USING DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY ON THE JOBSITE

 

There are a number of advantages to utilizing construction technology tools on the jobsite. Whether you’re looking to gain increased visibility, accuracy, or flexibility, leading construction technology, like John Deere’s JDLink™ and Worksight™, can give you all three.

Increased Visibility

 

With construction technology tools like John Deere’s JDLink, construction management becomes much easier. With the JDLink Machine Monitoring System, you can view important metrics in real time, like fuel consumption, idle time, payload, and tire pressure. JDLink also allows you to locate your machines throughout a jobsite and enable security remotely, receive customized alerts, and monitor engine hours and maintenance needs. JDLink improves efficiency and profit by offering a full spectrum of data for every machine on the jobsite.

 

Increased Accuracy

 

Thanks to John Deere’s construction technology tool, Worksight, you can get complex contours from its built-in 3D grade control system. With a more in-depth and intimate knowledge of your jobsite’s terrain, you can improve the overall efficiency of your construction management as well as cut costs by:

 

  •  Calculating more accurate estimates
  •  Eliminating placing and replacing stakes
  •  Eliminating the need for operators to exit cabs and check grades
  •  Creating faster task completion times

 

All you have to do is input certain design elevations into the control box of your crawler dozer or motor grader and Worksight adjusts the blade for the exact grade. That means no wasted hours, operator power, or materials.

 

Fortunately for your construction business, construction technology offers a clear view into a world of calculations you might otherwise have to guess about or spend too much time determining. Among other important insights, John Deere’s Worksight helps you reduce unnecessary fuel consumption by showing you time spent idling, match machine sizes to jobs by letting you view engine load and fuel consumption, and improve security by helping you set up virtual fences and authorized hours of use.

 

Increased Flexibility

 

When it comes to construction management, there’s not much room for downtime and plenty of need for optimized time. With John Deere construction technology tools, you can view multiple places and machines at once by monitoring your jobsites from anywhere on your mobile device. Not only does this give you the freedom to be in multiple places at once and boost your construction management operations and reputation, it also yields increased productivity.
