FAQ
How do I pick the best GPS tracking device for my business vehicles and assets?
Selecting the right GPS tracking solution usually comes down to two key factors: How relevant the devices and software features are to your business, and the reliability and reputation of the company behind the solution.
With BrickHouse Security, you’ll be working with a GPS partner that has helped tens of thousands of businesses deploy the best solutions for their specific needs. You’ll also be working with a business that has earned a 4.6-out-of-5-star rating across tens of thousands of customer reviews.
Can your trackers hold up under harsh conditions?
Absolutely. BrickHouse Security offers GPS solutions designed to deliver real-time telematics data from vehicles and non-powered assets operating in dirt, mud, severe cold, and other harsh conditions.
The GPS trackers we’d offer your utility company, for example, are rated IP67, which means both “waterproof” and offering “complete protection against dust over extended time periods.”
What assets should our utility business be tracking?
You’ll want to track all expensive assets that you 1) regularly send into the field and 2) need to be able to locate quickly.
The obvious example is your vehicle fleet. If you regularly send crews into the field in trucks, you’ll want to track those vehicles at all times. But you’ll also want to independently monitor the expensive equipment your crews take with them to their work sites. Considering your vehicle might be carrying or towing equipment, machinery, and tools worth more than the vehicle itself, you’ll want to know exactly where that equipment is at all times as well.
Note: There’s another operational benefit to GPS tracking your costly equipment – tanks, pump systems, directional drilling equipment, etc. If you have an urgent need to move some of this machinery to a specific location, you’ll need to know exactly where all of your company’s pump systems are, in real-time, so you can contact the right crews and send them to collect the nearest available unit.
With the right GPS tracking solution, you’ll be able to pull this information up instantly through an intuitive dashboard – so you can deliver the necessary equipment to the jobsite as quickly as possible.
Do I have to sign a service contract with BrickHouse Security?
Short answer: Nope.

How much does BrickHouse GPS cost?
Because we have so many GPS tracking solutions – including several options for automotive companies – we can’t answer the cost question with a single number.
But you can get a sense of how much – how little, actually – our GPS solutions will cost your business by going to our Best GPS Trackers page and reviewing the prices there.
Can GPS tracking help reduce fuel costs?
Yes, by optimizing routes and reducing idle time, GPS tracking helps lower fuel consumption. Monitoring driver behavior (e.g., speed, harsh braking) also helps promote fuel-efficient driving habits.
How does GPS tracking help prevent theft?
Real-time asset tracking allows utility companies to monitor the location of vehicles and equipment. Geofencing alerts can be set up to notify managers if assets are moved outside of designated areas, helping prevent theft and improving recovery chances.
Is GPS tracking useful for compliance and reporting?
The key benefits include:
Optimized Routing: Ensure vehicles and crews take the most efficient routes to job sites, reducing fuel costs and response times. Asset Monitoring: Keep track of valuable tools and equipment in real-time to prevent theft and misplacement. Improved Safety: Monitor the location of crews working in hazardous conditions and respond quickly to emergencies. Maintenance Scheduling: Track usage and condition of vehicles and equipment to schedule timely maintenance.
What is GPS tracking used for in the utilities industry?
GPS tracking is used to monitor the location and movement of utility vehicles, equipment, and crews. It helps manage field operations, ensuring efficient use of resources, quick response to outages, and enhanced safety for workers.
What types of assets can be tracked in the utilities sector?
Utility companies can track a wide range of assets, including service vehicles, trailers, generators, and other essential equipment. GPS tracking can also be used to monitor high-value tools used by field crews.
Can GPS tracking be used to manage multiple locations?
Yes, GPS tracking platforms allow utility companies to monitor assets and crews across multiple locations from a single interface. This centralized view helps manage operations more effectively, even when teams are spread across large geographic areas.
