Concrete Pump Hire Is High-Value, Safety-Critical, and Complex to Bill
A concrete boom pump costs hundreds of thousands of pounds and carries LOLER inspection obligations, operator certification requirements, and pump-hour-based service intervals. When billing is based on pump hours plus standing time, and pumps regularly overrun hire periods on live pours, the complexity of accurate invoicing overwhelms manual systems quickly.
Concrete Pump Hire From Dispatch to Accurate Invoice
LOLER Certificate Management
Store thorough examination certs per pump with automated expiry alerts — no pump mobilises without current documentation.
Operator Certification Tracking
Log CPCS pump card details and expiry per operator — hire blocked if certification has lapsed.
Pump Hour Metering
Record pump start and stop times per pour — invoiced at your pump hour rate with standing time billed separately.
Pour-Day Scheduling
Book pumps against pour schedules — the system flags conflicts if the same pump is double-assigned on the same day.
