FAQ
In any construction business, equipment breakdowns happen every now and then. Tools inherently come with an expiry date and depreciate over time. Like most things in life, the better you take care of something, the longer it lasts. If you want to make the best out of your equipment, you should consider employing certain equipment management best practices, such as:
- Regular maintenance to prolong life expectancy.
- Continued depreciation and revenue tracking.
- Discontinuing use of the equipment, or reselling it to salvage value.
A key component of profitable construction & service jobs is real-time visibility and tracking of all of your equipment and tools. By using a dedicated equipment management software you can accurately track costs, mobilize assets, measure utilization, and charge costs to specific job sites or tasks. Tracking equipment makes your construction management process more efficient and ultimately boosts your profits.
