Dry hire and equipment rental

Dry hire runs on knowing exactly what is out, with whom, since when — and what came back with it. A machine nobody can place is a machine that is not earning.

Buckets, attachments and paperwork follow the machine around, and at the end of it somebody in the office is reconciling what left the yard against what came back.

One board holds what is out on hire and what is standing in the yard, so the answer to "where is it?" is a glance rather than a phone around.

• Every machine in view, with the site and the job it is on
• Hire periods run through the calendar, so what is due back is visible before the customer rings
• Pre-starts logged against the machine while it is out
• Attachments, photos and documents filed against the job, so what went out with the machine is on the record
• Mobile app on the operator's phone for the signing and the photos
