Transforming construction: AI for zero downtime
Trackunit generates real-time data insights to the construction sector. Following the rapid progress of widespread Gen AI technology, Trackunit has leveraged its own rich data lake to drive internal efficiency and enhance its products, helping customers optimize machine utilisation, improve safety and ultimately reduce downtime across the global construction ecosystem.
Trackunit serves as a prime example of how our data-rich workflow software businesses are capitalizing on their structural data advantage through AI, systematically extending the customer proposition. Hg’s Data & AI team has been delighted to support them on this journey, from setting up their data foundations, to the final steps of implementing composite AI.
In 2024, after over five years of focused execution, Trackunit launched IrisX - the first open and scalable industry cloud platform for construction to collaborate, integrate and build useful solutions.

Vertical AI - Accessing Trackunit’s Data Lake
Trackunit’s transformational AI capabilities are powered by a vast data lake, populated with real time operational data, aggregated, cleaned, harmonized and enriched by business data.
With a scalable serverless architecture that powers actionable insights across trillions of data points, customers can build applications with product SDKs to use internally or market to an industry leading ecosystem.
Solving a complex challenge
“Together, we will eliminate downtime to build the most useful industry for the world”
In construction, no two job sites are the same. Each is a unique combination of processes, stakeholders and assets, spun from scratch in a different configuration each and every time, operating in a real-world environment that is often dangerous, unpredictable and changes daily. This complexity increases downtime, risk and cost.
Across a $13 trillion industry, we are at an inflection point where technology can solve complexity by unifying the industry and foster shared value through a secure and scalable platform.
Driving industry transformation - IrisX
The business’s solutions allow users to collect and analyze machine data in real-time to deliver actionable, proactive, and predictive information, empowering customers with data-driven foresight. This ranges from operator safety and machine health to business optimization.
With deep access to an already scaled platform that has been continuously developed and updated since 2018, Trackunit’s IrisX solution integrates multiple AI capabilities based on open-source and proprietary models, powering drastically faster and more accurate data analysis to streamline operations.
IrisX enables advanced workflow automations to improve business processes at scale. By combining AI capabilities with a customer’s entire IT infrastructure, it powers new automations, such as using real-time data from a machine returning from a rental to automatically create a maintenance ticket in its owner’s service cloud.
IrisX in action
For equipment manufacturers, IrisX can empower data driven insights to improve inventory forecasting and analytics, leverage upcoming services to proactively stock spare parts and launch aftermarket sales campaigns and facilitate upsell of extended warranties and derive further sales of genuine parts.
For rental companies, Trackunit's IrisX tool offers unparalleled LLM-driven insights that would otherwise require extensive deep-dive analysis. With IrisX, rental companies can quickly identify their most underutilised lots and machines. This powerful tool processes millions of data points in seconds, providing actionable insights that enhance operational efficiency and asset utilization.
