Next‑Generation Fleet Performance Starts with Op‑Ready Reports for JEMS
Op-Ready Reports for JEMS S/SE/LE and BG are now available. Op-Ready adds operational readiness and event notification capabilities to JEMS assets, helping fleets identify certain performance event conditions that can impact productivity and reliability.
By combining data from telematics and Altec equipment to identify events that could impact job readiness, Op-Ready addresses issues today to prevent downtime tomorrow.
What Are Op-Ready Reports for JEMS?
Jobsite Energy Management System (JEMS) eliminates unnecessary engine idling at the jobsite by using lithium-ion batteries to power the electric power-takeoff (ePTO), auxiliary chassis applications and jobsite tools.
Op-Ready helps fleets focus on productivity and reliability by tracking chassis, unit and JEMS data, then transmitting the events that require attention.
Op-Ready Reports are customizable, so you can focus on what matters for your fleet. You can configure reports to summarize the entire fleet, a subgroup of assets or a single unit. Report recipients are configurable, too, so the right people see the correct information at the right time to keep equipment up and running.
What Productivity Challenges Do Fleet Managers Face?
Unplanned downtime remains a consistent challenge for fleet managers working to keep equipment up and running. Unnecessary idling at the jobsite can also inhibit productivity and increase costs. On a normal day on the jobsite, trucks sit and idle for hours, which burns through fuel and adds wear and tear to engines. Idling at the jobsite for just one hour is the equivalent of driving 33 miles.* Accurate jobsite performance data is a piece of the puzzle to increase productivity, but fleet managers must be able to implement actionable insights from this information.
How Op-Ready Reports for JEMS and Altec Insights Work Together to Increase Productivity
The Altec Insights for JEMS page helps you get more out of your JEMS fleet and includes the following features:
- Track fuel savings and identify missed opportunities for savings
- Compare anti-idle hours with total jobsite hours by individual asset or fleet
- Receive quarterly and annual reports with clear utilization insights
- View a list with metrics to identify high- and low-performing JEMS assets
- Monitor JEMS Vehicle Status near real time
Altec Insights for JEMS also supports remote diagnostics using data directly from the jobsite. You can view Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and Vehicle Status alerts to better understand equipment from wherever you are located. Diagnostic Trouble Codes provide fault information, including severity, potential impact, and cause, as well as a recommendation. This data provides quick remote troubleshooting, helping you potentially avoid unnecessary service calls.
Op-Ready for JEMS fits alongside JEMS and JEMS Insights by adding scheduled event notifications tied to key battery faults, override engagement, and much more. Op-Ready helps fleets build earlier awareness, enabling teams to respond sooner, and supports JEMS battery health and longevity through battery and override event notifications and related guidance within the Insights context.
