on-site

At the location

On-site means at the actual location where something happens or exists, rather than elsewhere: on-site inspections, on-site childcare, an on-site manager.

The term contrasts with remote or off-site arrangements.

A technician who comes on-site visits in person rather than troubleshooting from a distance.

Also spelled onsite.
