How to Track Your Fleet and Equipment with FieldFix

Know where your trucks are, when equipment needs service, and never miss maintenance again.

What You'll Need

Steps

1

Sign up for FieldFix

Create your free account at fieldfix.ai

  • Go to fieldfix.ai on your phone or computer
  • Click 'Get Started' or 'Sign Up'
  • Enter your email and create a password
  • Verify your email to activate your account
Tip: FieldFix is built specifically for contractors and field service businesses — it's not just a generic tracker.
2

Add your first vehicle or equipment

Start with your most important vehicle.

  • Click 'Add Equipment' or the + button
  • Enter: Name (e.g., 'Work Truck 1'), type, make, model, year
  • Add current mileage or engine hours
  • Upload a photo if you want (makes it easy to identify)
3

Set up maintenance schedules

Tell FieldFix when things need service so it can remind you.

  • Click on your equipment, then 'Maintenance Schedule'
  • Add common items: oil change (every 5k miles), filter replacement, tire rotation
  • For equipment: teeth replacement, hydraulic service, belt inspection
  • Set the interval (miles, hours, or time)
Tip: Start with the expensive stuff — the maintenance that prevents $5,000 repairs.
4

Enable location tracking (optional)

Know where your vehicles are in real-time.

  • Install the FieldFix app on phones that stay in vehicles
  • Enable location permissions when asked
  • Or purchase a GPS tracker device for always-on tracking
  • View all vehicles on the map in your dashboard
5

Log your first maintenance

Start building your service history.

  • When you do maintenance, open FieldFix
  • Tap the equipment, then 'Log Service'
  • Enter what was done, cost, and current miles/hours
  • Take a photo of the receipt — it's stored with the record

You're Done!

You're now tracking your fleet! You'll get reminders before maintenance is due and have records when it's time to sell.
