About The Customer
Tenna's customers are primarily construction companies that need to manage and track their assets and fleets in the field. These companies require full visibility into everything from the condition of heavy equipment to all of their vehicle locations. Tenna's platform provides a centralized solution for owning, operating, and maintaining construction fleet management. With the implementation of PubNub, Tenna's customers can now monitor important details like the location of fleet vehicles and smaller assets like tools, materials, and inventory remotely, without ever needing to step onto the construction site. This real-time visibility allows customers to make more informed decisions about equipment allocation, improving efficiency and reducing operational costs.
The Challenge
Tenna, a construction technology platform based in Edison, NJ, specializes in equipment fleet operations. Their innovative app bridges the gap between on-site projects, equipment facilities, and office operations by providing construction companies with a solution to manage and track assets and fleets in the field using real-time data. However, Tenna faced a significant challenge in providing real-time geolocation tracking, a crucial feature of their platform. Initially, they attempted to build an in-house system, but soon realized they needed a more reliable solution that could provide real-time geolocation data to their customers. They also needed a solution that could easily integrate into their existing tech stack and scale with their growth plans.
The Solution
Tenna turned to PubNub, a real-time data solution recommended by one of their engineers. PubNub’s SDKs allowed Tenna to easily and quickly implement real-time geolocation tracking. With PubNub, Tenna can now confidently power all of their real-time data at scale to support unlimited growth. The real-time location tracking data enables Tenna to develop and power features that are crucial for their users. This ability to roll out a variety of new, reliable, and scalable features wouldn't have been possible without a reliable backend solution. PubNub’s easy coding and SDKs have made development easier for Tenna’s team, saving significant development time.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of PubNub has brought significant operational benefits to Tenna and its customers. Tenna can now offer their customers increased visibility into asset tracking. The platform's real-time geolocation maps show the location and details of assets from anywhere, allowing users to monitor important details remotely. This has improved customer satisfaction and reduced operational costs. Additionally, Tenna’s customers can now see where an asset or vehicle is located on a map and watch it move in real time, which is crucial in preventing theft and identifying when vehicles or equipment are idling. This real-time mapping and knowledge of where assets are at all times allows Tenna’s customers to gain essential insights into their fleet and quickly make more informed decisions, reducing asset delays and curbing overall operational costs. Furthermore, Tenna’s real-time location tracking powered by PubNub has improved efficiency in their dispatch facilities, making allocating, dispatching, and scheduling resources much easier for Tenna’s customers.
