Start Tracking Now🚗 Vehicle Management
Track, manage, and maintain your service vehicles, right inside ToolWorks
ToolWorks now includes a full Vehicle Management module, giving you the tools to track your fleet, manage maintenance costs, and link tools directly to service trucks or vans. Designed to simplify fleet and asset tracking, this feature brings visibility and accountability to every vehicle in your operation.
Key Highlights
🧭 Centralized Vehicle Tracking
Add and manage all your company vehicles in one place. The Vehicles module appears as a standalone section under the main navigation in ToolWorks, where users can:
- Add new vehicles with details like make, model, registration, and VIN
- Assign operators (drivers, technicians, or field staff)
- Track maintenance schedules and service costs
- Monitor which tools are currently assigned to each vehicle
Each vehicle becomes a live, traceable asset, complete with full history and audit trail.
🧰 Designate Vehicles as Tool Carriers
Many businesses use service trucks and vans as mobile tool depots. ToolWorks makes this seamless with the Tool Carrier option.
When enabled, this setting allows you to:
- Assign tools directly to a vehicle
- View all tools currently stored or checked out to that vehicle
- Track transfers between vehicles and job sites
- Maintain accountability for mobile inventory
Tool Carrier vehicles appear in tool assignment lists, allowing fast and transparent tracking of tools in the field.
👷 Assign Vehicle Operators
Assign a specific operator to each vehicle to establish clear accountability. Operators can be any ToolWorks user, drivers, field techs, or service crew members, linked to one or more vehicles.
You can quickly view which vehicles each operator manages, and vice versa, ensuring both tools and vehicles remain properly tracked and maintained.
🔧 Maintenance Tracking & Cost Control
ToolWorks already helps teams manage preventive maintenance schedules and manual mileage/hour logs, and now these extend to vehicles too.
For every vehicle, you can:
- Schedule recurring or one-time maintenance tasks
- Log maintenance activities, including date, cost, and notes
- Track total maintenance spending per vehicle
- Attach photos or service documents for reference
Over time, these insights help you understand total ownership cost and identify high-maintenance vehicles.
🪄 Convert Existing Equipment to Vehicles (Wizard)
To make adoption easy, ToolWorks includes a conversion wizard that lets you turn existing equipment into vehicles.
If your organization previously tracked trucks or vans under the Equipment module, simply run the wizard to migrate those records. The wizard preserves your existing data, adds vehicle-specific fields (like registration, operator, and VIN), and automatically classifies the asset as a vehicle.
No need to start over, your data transitions smoothly.
📊 Built for Scalability and Insight
Whether you manage a handful of service trucks or an entire fleet of hundreds, ToolWorks scales effortlessly. Use filters, search, and sort controls in the Vehicle module to find information quickly, or export data for reporting and analysis.
Upcoming releases will also add Fleet Analytics dashboards for cost and performance insights.
Why It Matters
Vehicle Management connects the dots between tools, vehicles, and maintenance, creating a complete view of your mobile operations.
With ToolWorks, you can:
- Track where every tool is, even on the move
- See which vehicles are assigned to which operators
- Keep maintenance on schedule and control costs
- Eliminate guesswork, spreadsheets, and manual tracking
It’s a smarter, integrated way to manage both your tools and the vehicles that carry them.
