The address gets you to the building. Not the rooftop unit.

Send an engineer straight to the exact plant room, panel or entrance — with the permit, isolation and PPE notes right on the pin. A link and QR that opens turn-by-turn in any map app. No wandering the wards or hunting the right dock.

The callout starts at the gate. The job is on the roof.

A site has one address and a dozen ways in. Every minute an engineer spends finding the plant room is a minute off the SLA — and a call to the office to ask.

Hunting for the right entrance

Which door, which floor, which unit — a first-visit site can swallow half an hour before any spanner turns.

Callbacks to the office

“Where’s the isolator? Who has the key?” — the same questions, every new engineer, every site.

SLA time bleeding away

Wasted arrival time is wasted labour — and a missed response window on a contract.

Before & after

The same callout, with and without the pin.

Same site, same engineer, same fault. The only difference is whether they arrived at the asset — or at the gate with a phone to their ear.

Without Loc8ID

An address and a site contact

  • Engineer arrives at the gate and hunts for the right door, floor and plant room.
  • A callback to the office: “Where’s the isolator? Who holds the key?”
  • Permit and PPE requirements surface only once they’re already on site.
  • Half an hour of the SLA gone before a single spanner turns.
  • Every new engineer relearns the same site from scratch.

With Loc8ID

A pin on the asset itself

  • Navigation lands on AHU-4 on the roof — to the metre, in the engineer’s own map app.
  • Isolation point, permit source and PPE notes ride on the pin.
  • The contractor entrance and goods lift are pinned, not described over the phone.
  • Arrival time is spent on the fault, not the maze — the SLA holds.
  • The site is mapped once and every engineer reuses it.
How it works

Map a site once. Every engineer arrives at the asset.

1

Pin the assets & access

The rooftop unit, the panel, the plant room, the contractor entrance — each dropped on the real thing, to the metre. Group them as one site.

2

Add the working notes

“Permit from Estates · isolator is the red panel · PPE hi-vis + ear defenders · goods lift then Level R stair.”

3

Send it — or wire it in

One tap opens navigation on the engineer’s phone. Or auto-attach the site link to a work order straight from your scheduling / FSM software via the API.

Two ways it works

Whether you run the schedule or turn up with the toolbox

Scheduling & ops

  • Attach the exact site + asset link to every work order — from your FSM software via the API.
  • See when an engineer opened the link, so you know they’re on their way in.
  • One-time expiring links for a contractor’s single visit.
  • First-time-fix goes up; travel-time disputes go down.

Engineers & techs

  • Arrive at the asset on the first visit — the roof unit, the panel, the plant room.
  • Isolation points, permits and PPE notes are right on the pin.
  • Build your own library of tricky sites and reuse them.
  • One tap opens your own map app — no new app to learn.

Built for the way a callout actually runs

Precise to the asset

Not “the site” — the unit, the panel, the plant room.

Permits & isolation notes

The safety-critical detail lives right on the pin.

A QR for the asset log

Stick it on the plant; the next visit finds it instantly.

Wire it into your FSM

Auto-attach a site link to the work order via the API.

Know it was opened

Analytics show when an engineer accessed the link.

One-time contractor access

Expiring links for a single scheduled visit.
