Site access

Browser-Based Plant Management for Site Teams

Give site teams browser-based mobile access to view plant, raise requests, request off-hires and report faults, damage or theft. No app is required.

The problem

Plant management that only works at a desk doesn't work on site

The people who know the ground truth about plant (it arrived, it's finished, it's broken, it's gone) are on site, in boots, nowhere near the system. So the truth travels by phone call and WhatsApp message to someone at a desk, who retypes it, later, sometimes. Every hop loses detail and adds delay, and the system ends up describing last week.

Meanwhile the site can't see the basics without ringing the office: what's been ordered, what's due, what's on hire.

How Equipbase helps

Site teams manage their plant from the site, on their phone

Equipbase works in a supported modern browser on a phone. Site users can complete common tasks where the work happens: request off-hire, ask for plant and report a fault, damage or theft.

The office stops being a switchboard, the system describes today, and the audit trail starts at the source.

Capabilities

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is there an app to install?

Equipbase runs in the phone's browser, so there's nothing to install or update. Site users just need their login.

What can site users see?

What a user can see depends on their role and current access configuration. Ask us to demonstrate the access model for your intended office, site and client users.

Can site users order plant directly from suppliers?

No. Sites request, the office orders. That keeps ordering fast for the site while suppliers, rates and budgets stay controlled centrally.

Does mobile access cost extra per site user?

Pricing is tailored to your company, users, contracts and workflows. Request a demo and we'll provide a proposal based on your requirements.
