CASE STUDY: MGC Logistics (AR-WASTESCAN)

Automated Site Bin Tracking & ESG Waste Compliance

MGC Logistics needed an accurate way to monitor waste generated by individual subcontractors across multi storey construction sites. GJBS engineered AR-WasteScan, combining weatherproof barcoded waste bins, rugged handheld scanners, and cloud reporting to capture exact waste type, contractor attribution, and net weight at the point of collection.

BUILT FOR HARSH SITE CONDITIONS

Why UK Contractors & Utilities Choose GJBS Over Generic SaaS

Smartphone QR stickers rub off inside a week on wet UK building sites, and generic asset apps cannot enforce statutory LOLER lockouts or integrate weighscales. GJBS engineers survivable hardware plus software systems built for real site compounds.

Audit Ready HSE, LOLER & PUWER Governance

Give Health & Safety managers instant proof that every sling, shackle, excavator attachment, harness, and electrical tool on site holds a valid thorough examination or PAT/calibration certificate.

Parent Child Kit Boxes & Gang Containers

Group multiple tools inside a tagged gang box, flight case, or welfare container. Issue the parent container in one scan while automatically flagging if a single item is missing on return.

Independent IP67/IP68 Rugged Scanners

We supply drop tested, rain proof Android barcode and UHF RFID handhelds across leading industrial brands, configured so site storemen can scan with wet or gloved hands.

Bespoke Modules for Unique Site Challenges

Whether you need subcontractor waste charging (AR-WasteScan), cable drum tracking, or temporary works register integration, our in-house UK developers tailor workflows to your framework requirements.

SITE SAFETY, PLANT CUSTODY & ESG GOVERNANCE

Core GJBS Workflows for Principal Contractors, Civil Engineers & Utilities

Multisite contractors and utility frameworks operate across mud, rain, basements, and shared compounds where unreturned plant, expired LOLER certificates, and mixed skips erode margin.

CRIBS, VANS & LOLER / PUWER

AR-Tool Tracker Plant & Kit Custody

Issue small plant, lifting gear, calibrated gas detectors, and power tools against operative badges or PINs while flagging overdue LOLER, PUWER, or PAT inspections automatically.

CONSTRUCTION & INFRASTRUCTURE FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions: Site Tool & Plant Tracking

How do you attach RFID tags to grinders, breakers, chainsaws, and steel lifting gear without them breaking?

We match the attachment method to each tool family: miniature ceramic on-metal UHF tags bonded into recessed housings with industrial two part epoxy on power tools; riveted polycarbonate hard tags on steel plant and skips; and heavy duty armoured RFID cable ties on lifting slings, chains, and fall arrest harnesses.

Can AR-Tool Tracker block an operative from signing out an uncalibrated or out of test LOLER item?

Yes. When an item passes its LOLER, PUWER, PAT, or calibration expiry date, or is logged as defective, AR-Tool Tracker automatically sets a quarantine status and alerts the storeman visually and audibly on the handheld scanner if anyone attempts to book it out to a van or site.

How does AR-WasteScan help UK principal contractors reduce skip costs and hit ESG targets?

By barcoding or RFID tagging internal site bins allocated to each trade subcontractor and weighing them before tipping into compactors or skips, principal contractors gain indisputable data on waste tonnage by stream (timber, plasterboard, metal, general) and can recharge excess waste fairly while proving BREEAM/ESG diversion metrics.

Can site managers check equipment using regular site smartphones as well as rugged depot RFID guns?

Yes. Depot tool cribs and mobile auditors typically use pistol grip UHF RFID sleds for rapid bulk scanning, while site supervisors and engineers can also scan 1D/2D barcodes, QR codes, and NFC tags on compatible Android site smartphones.

How quickly can a multi depot UK contractor roll out AR-Tool Tracker?

Most contractors launch their main plant/tool depot first within a few weeks, importing existing plant spreadsheets and tagging core high value kit, before rolling vans and regional site compounds online depot by depot without disrupting live contracts.

Does GJBS site tracking work inside concrete basements, tunnels, and rural utility compounds without signal?

Yes. GJBS mobile Android applications store tool issues, van audits, safety checks, and waste bin PIN allocations locally on the rugged terminal whenever Wi-Fi or 4G/5G signal drops, synchronising automatically with the cloud or central SQL server once connectivity resumes.

Can fire doors, safety checkpoints, and scaffold tags be inspected using NFC taps?

Yes. Weatherproof 13.56 MHz NFC checkpoint discs mounted onto fire doors, scaffold towers, temporary electrics, or plant allow site supervisors and external inspectors to tap physically with an NFC enabled phone or rugged terminal, proving presence at the asset and preventing tick box paperwork.
