Make plant pay its way

Heavy plant is expensive to own and idle plant is pure loss. Machines move between sites, hire charges must be allocated to projects, breakdowns stop work, and without utilisation data you cannot tell which assets earn and which drain.

This module manages plant as a costed resource: location and hire charge per site, maintenance and breakdown, and utilisation — so equipment cost lands on the right project and idle assets are put to work.

It connects directly to the rest of your Construction ERP, and can be extended with AI or mobile apps for field teams.

Equipment & Plant — frequently asked questions

Does it allocate hire charges to projects?

Yes. Internal hire charges are allocated to the sites and projects using each machine, so plant cost lands where the work is done.

Can it schedule maintenance?

It can. Maintenance is scheduled and breakdowns are logged, reducing costly downtime and keeping machines available.

Does it measure utilisation?

It does. Utilisation and idle time are tracked per machine, so you can put under-used assets back to work and see which plant actually earns.

Is plant cost booked to projects?

Yes. Hire, fuel and operating cost are booked to the site using the equipment, keeping project costing complete.
