Ask any site manager where a specific drill, laser level or test rig is right now and the honest answer is usually a shrug — it is in a van, on a site, or in the last place someone left it. Tool theft costs UK trades well over £100 million a year, but the quieter cost is the kit that is not stolen at all: just lost, duplicated, or sitting idle on the wrong site while someone buys another one.
What Localizit does
Localizit is the group's asset-tracking platform. Tag tools and equipment with low-cost Bluetooth (BLE) tags, and every scan from the mobile app updates a live register: what the asset is, where it was last seen, and who had it. Check kit out to people, vans or sites; see what is due back, what is overdue and what has gone quiet. No more spreadsheet that was accurate the day it was made and never again.
Built for the way sites actually work
The system is designed around a simple truth: nobody on a busy site will do data entry. Scanning a tag takes a second, walking past kit with the app open picks tags up automatically, and the register builds itself from those moments. It suits construction firms, hire desks, facilities teams, engineering workshops — anywhere valuable kit moves between people and places.
Why it sits in the group
Take 2 has supplied barcode, RFID and BLE hardware for asset tracking for years; Localizit closes the loop with the software that makes the hardware useful on day one. Tags, rugged scanning devices and the platform come from one supplier — and for operations that outgrow BLE, the same group provides GPS tracking and LoRaWAN sensing.
