Plant hire software in Northern Ireland
UpRate helps plant hire company owners and hire desk managers keep customers, hire contracts, plant, labour and invoices connected. Start with the agreed job, review the resource allocation and carry the work into the office handoff. Choose the modules your team needs rather than managing each stage in a disconnected spreadsheet.
FREE entry covers customers and hire contracts. Scheduling and invoicing require the appropriate paid package.

Built around the hire desk.
Keep the job together
Customer, site and hire contract details give the office a common starting point. Amend the record rather than relying on a separate spreadsheet.
Allocate people and plant
Resource Manager brings asset and labour assignments onto the schedule, with timesheets kept alongside the work.
Carry details into invoicing
Invoice Manager keeps the contract connected to invoice preparation, so accounts can review the job behind the charges.
A Belfast replacement-plant booking
Illustrative workflow: A Belfast site requests replacement plant and the desk needs to coordinate the agreed hire.
Confirm the agreed hire
Open the customer’s contract and confirm the site, task and dates before selecting a replacement.
Review the allocation
Have the responsible people check equipment suitability externally, then review the plant and labour allocation.
Keep the work connected
Keep the amended contract connected to the assignment and recorded work for the office handoff.
A practical check for Northern Ireland
A replacement is not just a different asset name on the booking. HSENI publishes Northern Ireland work-equipment guidance and a Northern Ireland PUWER overview; responsible people must confirm suitability and safe-use arrangements for the actual task. Do not use an unchanged Great Britain legal paragraph as if it settled every Northern Ireland question. Ask the site contact what has changed, who is accepting the replacement and whether the work period or labour arrangement also changes. Keep the agreed job and site details with the contract before amending the allocation. UpRate does not validate equipment compliance, inspect machinery or check qualifications. This workflow is for Northern Ireland, not a claim about Republic of Ireland law.
