Construction sites are a hub for theft. Hence knowing your options regarding construction site monitoring is a must today
In 2022 construction site theft increased by nearly 50%. One third of every construction site and building project experienced some kind of theft, vandalism or worse.
Think about that for a moment…
Although the cost to builders, project managers and property owners was over 1 billion dollars annually. In some cases theft totalled half a million to one million dollars on one site alone.
With rising costs in materials and machinery hire and tools. It’s no wonder more companies are using security camera monitoring services
As of now there is a major study currently underway to find the latest numbers on construction site theft and vandalism. Including all states including NSW. However preliminary numbers have indicated that these numbers are costing billions to the construction industry and insurance companies.
Most Sydney building companies are now taking proactive action and employing construction site security monitoring solutions
Our construction site monitoring services provide a dedicated security camera system on your job site. Usually installed on your private power pole or another specified location by our clients. We also provide mobile patrol security or construction site security guard hire.
As far as mobile site CCTV cameras we don’t need an active NBN or internet connection. Just temporary power which we can run from a temporary power source. If no power source is available we use solar solutions
The average cost of a monitoring system is between $1800-$4000 depending on how many cameras are installed. As well as the type of cameras you choose to hire or purchase
The benefits of using a security system to monitor your construction site far outweighs the cost.
There are many other benefits many construction companies do not think about. But for the moment let’s take a look at some major brands builders and contractors use in Sydney.
Monitoring Contractors
Managing contractors on site no longer requires project managers, builders or foreman to be onsite throughout the build
Remotely managing a site can be accomplished if you are busy organising materials, paperwork and approvals
Monitoring the progress of a tradie is easier than ever. With our advanced digital security cameras and CCTV options. You can now clearly follow a contractors progress and productivity throughout the day. Check on sites when you need to. And no longer having to worry when your offsite is a tremendous asset to many builders and project managers
Construction Site Monitoring of Material Delivery
Managing material delivery and ensuring the safe delivery of these materials is another asset when engaging construction site monitoring systems.
Delivery drivers schedules can be tricky and organising whole days and time slots. And just to wait for a particular delivery can really affect a busy construction companies productivity. As well as take away valuable time from being able to tackle other tasks
Monitoring Multiple Construction Sites?
Monitor more than one site with ease by simply installing a dedicated CCTV security monitoring system on site.
Construction sites require time and travelling between multiple sites can be tough.
Don’t get bogged down on one site and neglect other construction projects and builds.
Setting up a security monitoring system on any construction site is easy. We provide complete access to your iPhone, android or tablet and PC. Giving you complete control over who comes in and out of your site through out the day and night.
Through our experience successful builders and construction companies deploy security monitoring systems. Why? Because they are serious about growth and taking their construction services to the next level.
Construction Site Monitoring Distance
The distance between two construction sites makes a major impact. Especially in making sure they are effectively managed and completed according to schedule.
Travelling across the city or even country to manage multiple sites costs money and time.
Tolls, petrol prices and wear in tear on vehicles all add up to an ever increasing bottom line.
When construction companies are successful in landing a project, many factors such as distance management. A well as the cost of continuously travelling to and from each site must be factored in.
Construction site security monitoring systems reduce those costs dramatically. So it is just another reason to either install a CCTV security system on site. Or employ a security measure such as a security night patrol or security guard
With so many construction site security monitoring options now available, it’s no wonder why this service has almost become a standard for most builders in Sydney over the last few years.
