Bespoke software, built for how your business actually runs.
Not an off-the-shelf tool. Warming Neon scopes the process with you, builds the software that fits it, and connects it to what you already run: Sage, spreadsheets, whatever's holding things together now.
This is a demonstration of Neon Plant & Tool Hire, a system still in development. The modules built so far are live and new ones are still being added.
See it running, not described.
Below is Neon Plant & Tool Hire, a demonstration system for a plant and tool hire business. Left is what the customer does. Right is what's happening underneath at the same moment. Hover or tap a point to look closer, and follow the trace across to see how the two sides connect.
Browse the fleet, see real availability
Live stock against live bookings: the customer only ever sees what can actually be hired for their dates.
Every enquiry checked before a date is offered
Current hires, reservations and service windows all resolved against each other, no double-booking, no offering kit that's due a service mid-hire.
Ordered in a couple of taps
Guided checkout, dates, delivery or collection, done. Least friction between wanting the kit and booking it.
Customer record created or updated
The order creates or refreshes the CRM record: hire history, VAT status and discount eligibility ready for next time.
Delivery or collection, confirmed on the spot
Driver diaries, lorry capacity and equipment availability resolved automatically before a slot is offered.
Slot checked against driver hours and maintenance
Delivery is only offered once driver capacity and the asset's service window both clear, modelled on real fleet tools like Tachomaster and Paragon.
The customer just uses the kit
Extension requests and swap-outs handled in the same flow if they need them, no phoning round to ask.
Every hire day pays the machine off
Each asset carries its own ROI countdown and service schedule, the system knows when this machine pays for itself and when it's next due a spanner.
Return processed, invoice raised automatically
The invoice arrives the moment the hire closes, nothing sat in a tray waiting for Friday.
Charged by rule, not by memory
VAT, discounts, extended-hire levy, late-return and damage charges applied automatically, and pushed straight into your accounts package.
A reason to come back
A discount code lands when the customer's likely to need kit again, based on their actual hire history, not a blast list.
Utilisation, ROI and payroll update live
Revenue per asset and the ROI countdown move in real time, and driver hours from every job flow straight into payroll.
