How Wade Works LLC uses expert fleet tracking to keep the energy sector running

Energy producers rely on seamless operations to eliminate costly downtime

In the energy sector, downtime comes with a hefty price tag. A single hour of downtime can cost oil and gas producers $220,000—making reliable operations non-negotiable.

The high costs associated with downtime mean energy producers put a huge emphasis on predictive maintenance. In fact, 82% of producers highlight it as a strategic objective. Energy infrastructure providers have a key role to play in keeping equipment in top working order to reduce client downtime.

Wade Works LLC knew they needed a top-tier tracking solution to monitor and maintain their remotely deployed fleet. By partnering with One Step GPS, they gained the tools they needed to best support their customers' operations—and solidified their reputation as a best-in-class energy services provider.

As Wade Works LLC looked to replace its previous GPS system, the company searched for a fleet tracking service tailored to the unique needs of energy infrastructure fleets. To ensure uninterrupted operations, they needed a solution offering durable devices, cutting-edge tracking abilities, and sophisticated maintenance tools.

Here are a few features that made One Step GPS stand out among competitors—and how Wade Works LLC uses them to unlock success.

1. Durable, dependable devices

Wade Works LLC operates in the remote Bakken area, known for its rugged terrain and extreme weather conditions. Snow and ice, flooding, dust and debris, and scorching heat all come with the territory—to track each of their assets without skipping a beat, the company requires devices that can withstand the area's environment.

With the help of One Step GPS' dedicated team, Wade Works LLC was able to tailor their device options to the Bakken region's climate. In addition to our popular plug-in and hardwired trackers, we offer a range of options to suit every energy services fleet, including:

Rugged hardwired trackers. The ideal choice to withstand the harshest environments, this tracker is dust- and waterproof.

Battery-powered trackers. This tracker is the perfect choice for assets without a built-in power source. Our batteries provide years of reliable tracking service, lasting up to a decade.

Solar-powered trackers. For remotely deployed assets, this option provides seamless tracking without the hassle of battery changes.

Each One Step GPS device works maintenance-free for years after a simple installation process that takes just minutes or less, keeping your fleet focused on what matters.

2. Precise, real-time monitoring

Operating in the remote Bakken region often takes Wade Works LLC's assets off the beaten path—but with One Step GPS' superior desktop, mobile, and tablet apps, they're always just a click or tap away. Here's how our fleet tracking platform helps bridge the gap to give Wade Works LLC a clear view of their fleet anytime, anywhere.

Precise, real-time GPS location. One Step GPS devices are accurate to within about 8 feet and update location data every 1 to 30 seconds, meaning managers never have to guess about the location of their remotely deployed assets. Companies can easily select and locate the exact asset they need to track in real-time via map and list views.
Roaming SIM cards. One Step GPS devices use roaming SIM cards, which are indispensable for fleets operating in areas with limited infrastructure. They maximize connectivity and speed by automatically connecting with the strongest provider or cell network currently available.
Live, customizable alerts. Create custom alerts to help you keep track of your assets no matter where a job takes your fleet. The One Step GPS platform allows you to set operating hours and geofences to alert you to assets leaving and entering job sites, after-hours use, departure from approved routes, and operation outside defined areas. Alerts can be received via app, email, or text by as many people who need to stay informed—at no additional charge.

3. Automated maintenance tools

To provide the uninterrupted service their clients expect, optimal fleet maintenance is essential for Wade Works LLC. One Step GPS offers a range of automated maintenance tools that help the company keep their assets in top health—even from afar. Here's how:

Real-time diagnostics. Access live diagnostic information 24/7 from One Step GPS' integrated dashboard to detect problems before they result in breakdowns and downtime.
Automated maintenance scheduling and reminders. Keep on top of asset health by scheduling preventive maintenance procedures like oil changes, brake and tire inspections, and air filter replacements. Set up automated service reminders based on mileage driven, diagnostic codes, engine hours, and more.
Driving behavior alerts. Behaviors like idling and harsh driving can increase vehicle wear and tear. With One Step GPS live alerts, you can put a stop to these before they harm your fleet's health.
