Swiss Marco Dätwyler Group relies on Tyrolit’s ‘MoveSmart’
Published 20/11, 2024 at 18:03The Swiss Marco Dätwyler Group (MDG) runs a total of 12 businesses in various areas of the construction industry, ranging from concrete demolition to plumbing and heating installations. A company of its size requires a large inventory of machines, tools and vehicles. In order to manage this inventory optimally, MDG has been relying on MoveSmart from Tyrolit since 2023.
MoveSmart is Tyrolit’s digital platform solution for easy asset management. Whether for stock accounting, planning machine maintenance, or for locating vehicles, MoveSmart is designed to simplify asset management. It is easily accessible at any time via a cell phone or PC. All these advantages, as well as the fact that the platform is highly innovative, prompted the Marco Dätwyler Group to integrate MoveSmart into its companies. “Before MoveSmart, we had to manage dozens of Excel lists, forms and PDFs. The lists were not linked and had to be adapted manually. This was a great administrative effort, which is now considerably simplified with the help of the MoveSmart platform. We can display the inventories of our different companies and branches at a glance, and the internal rental of machines can also be easily documented,” says Regina Dätwyler, head of the MDG Group’s logistics centre.
Personal support on site
Around 5,300 of the Group’s operating resources are already integrated into the MoveSmart platform. The platform and the associated hardware are currently primarily used for asset management, site connections and the generation of inventory lists. “All internal allocations, the documentation of the history of the machines, as well as our spare parts management, are already done via MoveSmart. The personal support and training on how to optimally integrate the platform into our workflow confirms that Tyrolit is the right partner for the asset management of our company. The cooperation works really well and is very professional,” says Markus Käser, strategic purchaser at the MDG Group, enthusiastically.
When asked about tips on how to implement MoveSmart in a company, he and Regina Dätwyler quickly agree stated that they recommend - as in their case - a gradual introduction of MoveSmart, as it is essential to clean up the database before importing it and to involve employees.
