Not an off-the-shelf tool. We scope your process with you, build the software that fits it, and wire it into what you already run — Sage, spreadsheets, whatever's holding things together now.
This is the live build of Neon Plant & Tool Hire, a real system we're putting together. New modules are still being added, so some parts are further along than others.
Below is Neon Plant & Tool Hire — a plant and tool hire business we built end to end. Left is what the customer does. Right is what's happening underneath at the same moment. Hover or tap a point to look closer, and follow the trace across to see how the two sides connect.
Live stock against live bookings — the customer only ever sees what can actually be hired for their dates.
Current hires, reservations and service windows all resolved against each other — no double-booking, no offering kit that's due a service mid-hire.
Guided checkout — dates, delivery or collection, done. Least friction between wanting the kit and booking it.
The order creates or refreshes the CRM record — hire history, VAT status and discount eligibility ready for next time.
Driver diaries, lorry capacity and equipment availability resolved automatically before a slot is offered.
Delivery is only offered once driver capacity and the asset's service window both clear — modelled on real fleet tools like Tachomaster and Paragon.
Extension requests and swap-outs handled in the same flow if they need them — no phoning round to ask.
Each asset carries its own ROI countdown and service schedule — the system knows when this machine pays for itself and when it's next due a spanner.
The invoice arrives the moment the hire closes — nothing sat in a tray waiting for Friday.
VAT, discounts, extended-hire levy, late-return and damage charges applied automatically — and pushed straight into your accounts package.
A discount code lands when the customer's likely to need kit again — based on their actual hire history, not a blast list.
Revenue per asset and the ROI countdown move in real time — and driver hours from every job flow straight into payroll.
Consultation, PRD, feasibility feedback — no obligation, no jargon, no off-the-shelf pitch.
