Penton’s EquipmentWatch has relaunched its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform at EquipmentWatch.com. It includes broad equipment coverage across the construction, lift/access, agricultural and commercial truck markets, for everyone involved in the equipment lifecycle.

The new platform builds on what is already the most expansive database of historical equipment information with new insights into relative asset utilization, transparent pricing data, value and rental rate trending along with an overall improved interface. New workflow tools have also been introduced to speed the cost recovery process between contractors and project owners, mitigate risk and improve portfolio management for the finance community, and easily allow for the import and export of data for use in other software systems.

“Decisions in the equipment industry are being increasingly driven by data and intelligence. The proper use of data can be the deciding factor in winning the job or getting the most value out of an asset through its economic life,” says Garrett Schemmel, vice president & market leader, EquipmentWatch. “We’re excited to see the competitive edge our platform can deliver to our thousands of customers.”

Notable features and capabilities of the new platform include:
