Equipment tracking services are a vital thought for plant machinery, agricultural instrumentation, and totally high value assets. For instance, theft is becoming an increasing draw back for businesses, but that is not entirely due to higher insurance premiums, but the disruption and value of lost opportunities caused by expecting the instrumentation to get replaced. To clarify, in its 2020 Rural Crime Report, rural insurer NFU Mutual revealed that rural crime cost the UK £54m in 2019, an increase of almost 9% on the previous year and agricultural vehicle theft claims to NFU Mutual rose by nearly 25% to £9.3m in 2019.

Of cause, that’s where Project Taken fits in.

Project Taken is an equipment service that allows you to monitor where all of your assets are 24/7. Our app has many built in functions from location, speed and much more.

If the inevitable ever happens and your asset gets stolen with Project Taken we can send some of our 250 former police, military and close protection background team members all around the UK (excluding N.I) to hunt down your valuable asset. This is a game changer in the fight against theft as the thieves wont even know they are been hunted.

Our service can be seen on Sky ones ‘The Heist’ and Channel 4s ‘The Hunted’ and ‘The Hunted Celebrity’

Since the start of COVID-19 there has been a 50% jump in theft from construction sites, 92% of all building sites have been affected by petty crime and a unbelievable 21% of sites are robbed on a weekly basis.

In 2021 theft and vandalism cost the construction industry alone £800 million. This does not take in to account any theft of agricultural machinery.

As it stands the recovery rate of stolen construction vehicles is only 9% we believe its time for this to change.

65.2% of people surveyed claimed tracking plant vehicles was effective but an astounding 23.4% admitted they have never tried such a device.
