What actually makes this different

Three things car software gets wrong

A serial is the identity, not a VIN Plant does not arrive with a VIN in a tidy seventeen character format. If the system cannot hold a serial or PIN as the unit's identity, the machine has no record and neither does its history.

Parts and service carry the year Margin on the machine is thin and the money is in parts, attachments and service. If parts, stock and the job card sit in different systems, you are guessing at the only profitable half of the business.

The machine outlives the deal A loader is on your books for fifteen years and three owners. The service history is the asset, and it has to survive staff turnover to be worth anything at resale.

The unit lifecycle

From the yard to the bench and back again

01 Acquire Machine in Serial or PIN, supplier and true cost against the unit.

02 Prep A real job card Pre delivery checks, parts and labour land back on unit cost.

03 Sell Machine and attachments Sell more than one unit on the one deal, with accessories alongside. One invoice, one delivery.

04 Service Scheduled and breakdown Retail, warranty, internal and recon jobs on one screen. Hours recorded against the unit.

05 Repeat Full history Service reminders, and a history that follows the machine rather than the customer.

Straight answer

What we do not do

Servicing is scheduled by date, not by machine hours. Hours are recorded against the job and kept on the unit record, but they do not trigger the next booking. Worth knowing before you see the demo rather than during it.

Job management Retail, warranty, internal and recon jobs on one screen. Parts and stock Min and max levels, and parts that land on the right job. Technician productivity Hours booked against jobs, and what that says about the bench. Service reminders The next service raised against the machine, not a spreadsheet.

Questions equipment dealers ask

Straight answers, before the demo

Does it work for heavy and construction equipment, not just cars?

Yes, and the difference is the identity of the unit. Plant does not arrive with a VIN in a tidy seventeen character format, so a machine is held on its serial or PIN, with the supplier and what you actually paid against it. Attachments can be their own units on the same deal, each with its own serial and service record, and one invoice covers the lot.

Is there a CRM, or is it only the workshop?

Customers, units and jobs are one system rather than three. Every machine is on a customer record with what was sold, what was serviced and what is due, and service reminders are raised against the machine. It is a dealership system rather than a sales pipeline tool bolted to a workshop.

How do I know what a machine really cost me before I discount it?

Pre delivery checks, parts and labour land back on the unit cost, so the figure you are looking at includes the work you did to get it ready, not just the purchase invoice. Parts and service are where the margin is on plant, and both sit on the same record as the sale.

Does it schedule the next service on machine hours?

No. Hours are recorded against the job and kept on the unit record, so the history is there, but servicing is scheduled by date and service reminders are raised against the unit.
