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. Read More
About 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. Read More
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. Read More Log in to view content
