EWP hire management software helps aerial and access businesses manage boom lifts, scissor lifts, telehandlers and other access equipment through the rental lifecycle. Baseplan combines hire management, asset tracking, servicing, parts, financial information and utilisation reporting in an integrated platform.

High-volume EWP hire requires accurate visibility over what equipment is available, allocated, being serviced or already on hire. Baseplan provides planning, allocation, and asset management tools that help aerial access companies coordinate numerous simultaneous rental contracts.

Yes. An integrated rental ERP can manage different aerial and access equipment categories within the same fleet environment while still allowing businesses to apply different workflows based on equipment type, customer or location.

Baseplan’s service functionality supports preventative maintenance, breakdown management, equipment condition management and service scheduling. Maintaining clear digital servicing and inspection records is particularly important for EWP fleets, where Australian WHS guidance places significant emphasis on inspection, maintenance and recordkeeping.

Yes. Utilisation reporting helps an access hire company determine which machines are consistently earning revenue and which are spending too much time idle or unavailable. Baseplan combines real-time utilisation information with financial analysis to help businesses make better fleet decisions.

Better preventative servicing, breakdown tracking and service scheduling can help access hire businesses identify maintenance needs earlier and return equipment to hire more quickly. Connecting servicing with fleet availability also prevents machines from being allocated when they are not ready for customers.

Baseplan provides planning and allocation tools, multi-line ticketing, flexible billing and integrated timesheet capabilities. These features are designed for hire companies that coordinate high volumes of equipment and transactions, rather than for managing each rental through separate manual processes.

Yes. Baseplan allows workflows to be adapted according to customers, equipment categories and geographic locations. This can help Australian EWP businesses maintain consistent core processes while accommodating differing requirements across branches, markets, and fleet types.

Look for strong fleet availability, rental allocation, utilisation reporting, preventative maintenance, inspection records, breakdown management and mobile field service. For growing aerial access businesses, multi-location management and the ability to handle high transaction volumes should also be priorities.
