Basecamp & temporary site operations

Manage basecamps, temporary facilities, teams, and site services from one platform.

MX can manage the operational life of a temporary site — not just track tasks. Intake, NFC wristbands, beds, meals, laundry, issue QR codes, asset records, dashboards, and SITREPs.

↳ Not just task tracking — the whole operational life of a site.

§ 01 · The operational life of a site

Manage the whole site — not just the tasks.

MX can manage the operational life of a temporary site. Stand-up to demobilisation. Not just the work — the people, the services, the assets, the site itself.

01

Stand-up

Site configuration, intake portal, NFC tag issue, asset and trailer registration.

02

Onboard

Personnel intake — ID scan, company, role, certification, NFC wristband or badge issued.

03

Operate

Check-in / check-out, beds, meals, laundry, issue reporting, asset maintenance, SITREPs.

04

Demob

Off-boarding, asset return, site close-out, audit retention.

§ 02 · Intake & identification

Operational in minutes, with no IT involvement.

Drivers, technicians, contractors, vendors, and visitors all hit MX the same way — a controlled intake that captures who they are, what they can do, where they go, and how they will be tracked on-site. From the moment they hold a badge they are operational — no app, no password, no login — and it scans for site access, meals, laundry, and forms.

intake / new arrivalroster upload · 112 rows · 3 duplicates caught
ID scan
Driver's licence or government ID via MX+ camera. Fields auto-populate.
Company & role
Company, email, phone, role. Pre-filled where the vendor is known.
Credentials
Certifications and training records linked. Site-specific safety briefing.
4
NFC issued
Wristband or badge bound to the person, role, and zones permitted. Operational from this moment — nothing to install or log into.
5
Site assignment
Bed, office, vehicle, parking — assigned and printed.

Driver's licence / ID

OCR-assisted capture via the MX+ camera. No re-typing. Fields validated.

NFC wristbands & badges

The badge is the identity — no app, password, or login. Tap for site access, meals, laundry, or to open a form, from the moment it is issued.

Companies & contractors

Vendor records carry their own roles, certifications, and access scope.

Crew rosters in bulk

When a hundred people arrive on day one, the crew roster is uploaded from a spreadsheet and duplicates against people already on record are caught automatically. Each person then picks up the same flow at the badge.

Site movement audit

Every gate, kitchen, laundry, and zone scan logged. Where everyone is, all the time.

§ 03 · Site services

Beds. Meals. Laundry. Issues. Access.

The operational details a basecamp lives or dies by — managed in MX, not on whiteboards and clipboards.

Bed assignment

Beds, bunks, RV pads. Delegate a block to a subcontractor and their manager assigns their own people. Traceable to NFC wristbands, audit retained.

Office assignment

Workspaces, demountable offices, vehicle parking — assigned and recorded.

Meal tracking

Unmanned stations recognise a badge or driving licence — no attendant, no manual tally, even through a network drop. Counts roll up by meal, day, vendor, and role.

Laundry tracking

In, processed, out. Labels printed in real time, bins tracked at collection, a proper disputes path. Per bag, per person, per vendor.

Access control

Physical and digital. NFC at gates and zones. Out-of-scope scans flagged.

Site assets

Trailers, generators, vehicles, equipment — registered, maintained, located. Stock held inside a container or store is held against it, and moves with it when the container is relocated.

Issue reporting

QR codes posted around site. Tap, photo, narrative — goes straight to maintenance.

Maintenance work

Routine and reactive. Linked to assets, photos, audit. Crews on MX+.

§ 04 · Multi-employer sites

Subcontractors manage their own.

A basecamp is rarely one employer. Each company on site has its own scope in MX — its people, training records, fleet and, now, its allocated beds — run by its own manager from the contractor portal, not by the camp manager on everyone's behalf.

Beds

The camp manager hands a company a block in one action, and MX proposes beds that keep its people grouped. The company's manager then assigns, moves and unassigns their own people. Unused beds go back to the pool.

People

A company's people are held under the company. Its manager sees and manages their own crew — not the rest of the site.

Training

Certifications and training records against each person. A course runs as an MX form, and a pass updates the competency record on submission.

Fleet

The vehicles, trailers and plant a company brought to site, held under that company.

↳ Same permission model as the rest of MX. A company sees its own allocation and its own people, and nothing of another's.

§ 05 · SITREPs & dashboards

Command sees the whole site.

MX rolls up the activity of every gate, kitchen, laundry, asset, issue, and crew into the operational dashboards command actually uses — and into SITREP packages ready for the daily brief.

People on site

Live from gate scans, with headcount by zone. Audit-retained.

Anyone outside a zone

Scans outside a person's permitted zones, flagged as they happen.

Bed occupancy

Assigned, available, projected, off-boarded today.

Meals served

Counts by meal, vendor, role. Anomalies surfaced.

Open laundry

Bags in, processing, out — and anything in dispute.

Open & blocked issues

Maintenance, facilities, access, IT — in one view.

Asset condition

Generators, water, sanitation. Inspections + history.

Daily SITREP package

Auto-assembled at 18:00 for the operational brief.
