Better Planning
GoCodes depreciation and utilization data gives operations managers the numbers they need for capital replacement planning. Know which assets cost more to maintain than replace.
The Asset Tracking Problem Every Utility Faces
Utility operations run on physical equipment. Trucks, meters, transformers, hand tools, generators, PPE. When crews can’t find what they need, service calls get delayed and costs rise.
Equipment Scattered Across Service Territories
Crews operate from substations, warehouses, and trucks spread across hundreds of square miles. Nobody has a real-time view of what’s where.
Spreadsheets Can't Handle Field Reality
Excel breaks down when 50+ field workers check tools in and out daily. Records drift out of sync within days.
Enterprise EAM Is Overkill for Most Utilities
SAP, IBM Maximo, and Infor EAM cost $100K+ per year. They take 6 to 12 months to deploy. Most mid-sized utilities need equipment visibility, not a six-figure platform.
Maintenance Gets Skipped Until Equipment Fails
Without automated reminders, preventive maintenance falls through the cracks. Equipment fails in the field during outage restoration when you need it most.
Storm Response Wastes Hours Locating Equipment
When storms hit, dispatchers scramble to find available generators, bucket trucks, and portable lighting. Phone calls replace systems.
No Accountability for Who Has What
Tools walk off job sites. Meters go missing. Testing equipment disappears from trucks. Nobody knows who had it last.
Better Oversight
GoCodes gives you real-time asset visibility, crew accountability, and preventive maintenance automation. All accessible from your teams’ smartphones
How GoCodes Tracks Utility Equipment Across Service Territories
Scan QR codes with any smartphone
Every asset gets a rugged QR code label designed for utility environments.
- Metal tags for transformers, switchgear, and outdoor cabinets
- Poly labels for hand tools, meters, and testing equipment
- Anodized aluminum tags for vehicles and trailers (20+ year lifespan)
Field crews scan equipment using the free GoCodes’ mobile app on any iPhone or Android. No barcode scanners. No dedicated hardware.
Check-in/check-out creates crew accountability
Every equipment movement generates an audit trail.
- Who loaded the cable fault locator onto truck 14
- When the portable generator left the substation yard
- Which crew checked out the $18,000 recloser tester
- Where your bucket truck was last scanned
Crews scan equipment out when loading trucks. Scan back in after completing service calls. GPS location, timestamp, and employee ID captured on every scan.
Real-time GPS tracking for fleet and high-value equipment
- Track service trucks, bucket trucks, and fleet vehicles 24/7
- Get theft alerts when equipment moves outside fenced yards
- Locate portable generators across the service territory
- Monitor trailer positions at staging areas during storm response
Preventive maintenance that prevents field failures
- Service fleet vehicles every 5,000 miles or 90 days
- Schedule transformer oil analysis every 12 months
- Re-certify hot sticks and PPE on annual OSHA requirements
- Calibrate testing equipment on manufacturer schedules
ROI insight: A properly maintained bucket truck lasts 15+ years. Neglected hydraulic systems fail at 8 years. Maintenance tracking defers $180,000+ replacement costs.
Dashboards give operations managers equipment visibility
- Which tools and vehicles are checked out to each crew
- What equipment sits unused at the central warehouse
- Which service areas are over-equipped vs. under-equipped
- Asset utilization rates across your fleet and tool inventory
