Scaffolding
Flatbeds, fixings and proof you were there
Site attendance you can evidence, kit that stops vanishing, and the CLOCS boxes ticked for the big contracts.
Scaffolding fleets live and die on attendance arguments: the contractor says the strike crew never showed, the client queries four hours of standing time, and the yard can't say which flatbed has the transoms on it. Meanwhile the tenders that pay properly want CLOCS compliance and camera evidence before you're on the list.
Geofenced sites turn "we were there at 7:30" into a log you forward. Trackers on the wagons — and battery units on gear that leaves the yard — mean Monday morning starts with a map, not a ring-round. Cameras square the CLOCS requirement and settle the third-party scrapes that flatbeds collect in town.
Attendance, evidenced
Arrived 07:28, left 15:45 — the standing-time argument ends with a timestamp.
Vehicle trackingTown scrapes, settled
Flatbeds in tight streets collect claims. Footage within the hour sends most of them away.

Tachograph & DVSAFrom scaffolding firms like yours
Can we prove the crew was on site, not just the truck?
The vehicle log is the backbone — arrival, departure, duration. Pair it with your sign-in sheets and the attendance argument is over before it starts.
Do our vans need tachographs?
Depends on weight and use — over 2.5t on international work, over 3.5t generally.
Gear keeps walking out of the yard. Can trackers help?
Battery trackers hide in beams, trailers and gin wheels' crates — out-of-hours movement pings your phone while the kit is still on the road.
Is CLOCS worth it for a firm our size?
If you want main-contractor work in cities, increasingly it isn't optional. The camera-and-tracking spec you'd fit anyway covers most of it — so get the badge and bid.
How fast can a 12-wagon fleet go live?
Inside the standard 7–10 days, fitted in your yard around the job list. Wagons don't miss shifts.
