How does Incus5 help contractors see owned and rented equipment together?

Incus5 provides a unified view of your entire equipment footprint in one platform — owned assets tracked via OEM telematics (Cat, Deere, Volvo, Komatsu, etc.), rented assets visible through rental company data feeds and ERP integration, and unconnected assets (trailers, small tools, attachments) tracked via manual entry or Bluetooth tags.

Can Incus5 track equipment costs by specific projects?

Yes. Incus5 ties fuel consumption, operating hours, rental rates, and maintenance costs to specific projects and job sites — so you know exactly what each project is consuming. This includes fuel cost per project, per asset, per day, rental spend tracked against utilization, and project-level profitability insights that feed your bidding accuracy.

How does Incus5 handle maintenance scheduling for mixed fleets?

Incus5 tracks actual engine hours, DTCs, and operational patterns to schedule maintenance based on real usage — not arbitrary calendar dates. PM scheduling is driven by real engine hours, DTCs from every OEM are unified in one alert feed, and service history is tied to each asset for resale value and compliance documentation.

Construction

The Problem

Your Assets Are Scattered. Your Visibility Shouldn't Be.

Construction contractors face a fundamentally different fleet challenge than rental companies. You don't own all your equipment. You don't control all the data sources. And your job sites change constantly. Here's what that actually costs you.

Multiple Rental Vendors, Zero Consolidated View

You rent from multiple vendors, each with their own portal. You're paying for all of it but can't see any of it in one place — so you're making project decisions with incomplete data.

Renting Equipment You Already Own

A site manager rents a machine because nobody knew you had one sitting idle 30 miles away. This happens more often than anyone admits — and you're paying twice.

Maintenance That Falls Through the Cracks

Mixed fleets across changing job sites make service scheduling a nightmare. Calendar-based PMs don't work when machines move between operators weekly. The result: unplanned downtime and project delays.

No Way to Know If Rented Equipment Is Actually Working

You're paying thousands per month for rented machines but have no idea if they ran 6 hours a day or sat idle for two weeks. You can't verify utilization or challenge billing.

How Incus5 Solves It

One Platform for Every Job Site, Every Asset, Every Decision.

Incus5 gives contractors something no single vendor can: a unified view of owned equipment, rented machines, and operational data — across every project, every site, and every OEM.

See Owned and Rented Equipment Side by Side

For the first time, you can see your entire equipment footprint in one view — owned assets with full telematics, rented machines with whatever data is available, and untracked assets through ERP sync. No more guessing what's where.

Rented assets visible through rental company data feeds and ERP integration
Unconnected assets (trailers, small tools, attachments) tracked via manual entry or Bluetooth tags

Track Equipment Costs by Project — Not Just by Asset

Every piece of equipment on your site has a cost. Incus5 ties fuel consumption, operating hours, rental rates, and maintenance costs to specific projects and job sites — so you know exactly what each project is consuming.

Fuel cost per project, per asset, per day
Rental spend tracked against utilization — stop paying for machines that sit
Project-level profitability insights that feed your bidding accuracy

Keep Every Machine Running with Data-Driven Maintenance

Calendar-based PM schedules don't work when machines move between sites and operators change weekly. Incus5 tracks actual engine hours, DTCs, and operational patterns to schedule maintenance based on real usage — not arbitrary dates.

PM scheduling driven by real engine hours, not calendar guesses
DTCs from every OEM unified in one alert feed — no more checking six portals
Service history tied to each asset for resale value and compliance documentation

Ask Your Fleet Anything — Across Every Source

Compass AI understands your owned assets, rented equipment, project assignments, and operational data. Ask a question in plain English and get answers that span your entire operation — not just one portal.

"What's my total equipment cost on the I-35 corridor project this month?"
"Which rented assets have been idle for more than 5 days?"
"Show me all machines overdue for service across Site A and Site B"

What You Might Not See Yet

Hidden Costs Eating Into Your Project Margins

These are the problems that don't show up in your project P&L until it's too late. They're happening on your sites right now.

Renting What You Already Own

You have an excavator sitting at the yard 30 miles away, but the site manager rented one because nobody knew it was available. This happens more often than anyone admits.

Fuel Cost Allocation Blind Spots

You know total fuel spend. But can you attribute it to specific projects, machines, and operators? Without that granularity, your project bids are based on averages, not actuals.

Idle Rental Charges Piling Up

A rented boom lift has been on your site for 3 weeks but was only used for 4 days. You're paying $2,500/month for a machine that earned you nothing. Without utilization tracking on rented assets, these charges pile up silently.

Compliance Documentation Gaps

OSHA, DOT, and project-specific safety requirements demand documented inspection and maintenance records. When records live in six different systems, audits become a scramble.

Inaccurate Project Bids

If you don't know the real equipment cost of your last 10 projects, you're bidding the next one blind. Historical cost data by project, equipment type, and site conditions makes your bids sharper and your margins wider.

Equipment Moving Between Sites Untracked

A loader was supposed to go from Site A to Site B on Monday. It's now Thursday and nobody knows where it is. Without geofencing and movement alerts, asset transfers become a phone-tag exercise.
