Crane hire
Crane hire software that tracks every component
Idalia is operations software for crane hire companies. Track tower, crawler, and mobile cranes down to each section and counterweight, allocate them to projects against lift dates, and plan the transport from the yard to site.
Track every crane, component, and assembly
Keep one record for each crane and for each part that moves on its own, such as tower sections and counterweights. See where each item is, what condition it is in, and where it goes next.
- Components and assemblies linked to each crane
- Manage at an SKU or unique item level
- Mass, dimensions, status, location, and useful life
- Full asset history and audit trail

Tower Section Type 1
Tower section inventory
Allocate cranes to lift dates
Reserve cranes, tower sections, and consumables on the project. The office and the site see the same committed stock before anything leaves the yard.
- Reserve quantities on a project with allocation orders
- Match gear to lift dates and work on the timeline
- See allocated stock separate from yard availability
Asset allocations
See shortfalls before lift day
Idalia forecasts stock from the project schedule and the allocations. See where tower sections or counterweights run low at each yard and site before you commit crews and cranes.
- Quantity on hand by yard, warehouse, and site
- Forecast draws on project schedules and allocations
- Compare locations over six weeks or six months

Plan transport by load and mass
Plan each run from the yard to site against the project calendar. Each load lists the assets, the mass, and the vehicle, and it is linked to the project and the allocation.
- Sequence loads against the project calendar
- Generate daily run sheets
- Run Chain of Responsibility workflows
- Capture proof of delivery with photos and signatures

Prestarts and site forms
Operators complete crane and plant prestarts on their phone. Each completed prestart is attached to the asset, and a failed check can flag the crane and notify the supervisor.
