Keeping track of all your mixed fleet is essential when managing your operations. With Inventory, you can take the guesswork out of available equipment for upcoming projects. Quickly glance at your equipment class inventory to understand which are ready for work (Available) or not due to maintenance issues or inspections (Unavailable) and being used for projects (On-Rent). Reduce downtime by addressing your unavailable equipment to get your operations back up and running again.

Additionally, with Inventory, you can internally assign (rent) your equipment to your various jobs. For more information, see Internally Rent Your Equipment.

  2. From the left menu of Fleet, select Inventory.

  3. All of your owned assets that have been loaded to T3 and any EquipmentShare rentals you have rented will display.
