Case Study: Obrascón Huarte Lain improves fleet maintenance and prevents breakdowns with Trackunit

Eliminating the Guessing Game Maintenance and Service

Obrascón Huarte Lain (OHL) faced a significant challenge in managing the maintenance and service of its large, mixed fleet of heavy equipment operating on global job sites. Without telematics, the process was a guessing game; the company was unsure if machines were being serviced on time or at all, with some service going unreported or skipped entirely. OHL needed to pull accurate maintenance reports, diagnose breakdowns in their plans, and uncover patterns in equipment failures.

The vendor, Trackunit, provided a telematics solution that created clarity and eliminated guesswork. OHL gained the ability to generate up-to-date reports on machine health, which allowed them to uncover undiagnosed problems and review machinery for serviceability. This resulted in OHL extending the life of its equipment, saving significant time and money across its operations.
