SAP IOT
Digital Project Management Platform with BIM 5D
The construction industry is frequently viewed as lethargic to change, but change is happening. More companies are learning to use SAP IoT technologies to eliminate common workplace nuisances and streamline workflows. Productivity, maintenance, security, and safety are the leading drivers of IoT adoption in construction. By leveraging the SAP Internet of Things, devices and sensors collect job site data in a more affordable, efficient, and reliable way. This data has now become a critical business asset, as informed decisions in construction can only be truly data-driven.
Solution Features of Highbar SAP IoT
With SAP IoT, construction companies gain real-time visibility into their operations, ensuring every asset is tracked and optimized.
Highbar’s IoT-enabled solutions bring the power of SAP and IoT together for construction enterprises:
- Geofencing – Setting specific vehicle travel zones
- Complete monitoring of equipment with historical tracking
- Real-time data of equipment (location, fuel level, current speed) is powered by SAP IoT sensors and analytics.
- Current status updates: moving, idle, parked, disconnected, GPS lost, battery low
- Full fuel tracking with ultrasonic waves
- Fuel alerts (refill, consumption, theft/pilferage)
- Event-based alerts like geo-fence breach, overdriving, or speeding
- Service records such as insurance, oil change, equipment servicing, and tyre change
- Driver information with behaviour monitoring
- Site/location-based groupings for easy management
- Detailed reports (movement, trips, idling, stoppages, utilization, refills, pilferage)
- Centralized cloud storage
- Access via mobile apps
- SD card for offline data storage
- Battery backup provision
- Optional Wi-Fi & Bluetooth connectivity
Alerts and Notifications
By leveraging SAP IoT, they can provide actionable alerts and notifications to avoid downtime and maximize efficiency.
Highbar’s SAP IoT solution also enables real-time alerts that keep projects running smoothly:
- Speed Alerts – Notify when a vehicle exceeds predefined speed limits
- Geofencing Alerts – Trigger notifications when vehicles enter/exit defined zones
- Working & Idle Time Alerts – Reports on active vs idle usage of equipment
- Maintenance Alerts – Reminders for servicing to prevent downtime
- Ignition Alerts – Track engine ON/OFF activity
- Temperature Alerts – Warnings when thresholds are crossed
- Fuel Consumption Alerts – Real-time notifications of fuel usage patterns
Why SAP IoT Matters in Construction
With the power of SAP and IoT construction companies can minimize downtime, enhance safety, reduce operating expenses, and improve value-based decision-making. SAP Internet of Things contributes better data to each decision point—fuel use, driver behaviours, or machine idle time becomes decision-based views to get better project delivery. The integration of SAP IoT helps companies build a connected job site, transforming traditional workflows into smart, automated processes.
