Historically speaking, Australia and New Zealand are still young countries, and therefore, in a constant state of growth and expansion. Across all trade and civil industries, cranes are an essential utility for most aspects of civil, commercial and residential construction, maintenance, and demolition.

The crane industry is thriving across Australian and New Zealand, meaning there is plenty of work for crane hire professionals, from commercial and industrial construction and residential developments to civil engineering and the mining industry.

Even during a global pandemic, the construction industry has continued to operate, meaning crane hire businesses have to stay on the pulse when booking jobs and organising their time, staff and equipment.

In the past, you may have been required to utilise several different job management software programs to help you manage the various aspects of your business.

Examples of some areas of a crane hire business that may be dependent on software programs could include:

  • Quoting and bookings
  • Staff management and wages
  • Job scheduling
  • Equipment and stock management and tracing
  • Invoicing and payments
  • Customer relationship management
  • Advertising, marketing and social media
  • Business development and more

 

In a busy high-risk industry business, like crane hire, managing all the different aspects can be challenging. 

Just Get It Done job management software, or JGID for short, is an innovative and intuitive job management system for crane hire businesses and other high-risk industries that allows you to easily manage all aspects of your business in one convenient place.

So what makes JGID different from other generic job management software programs? Read on to learn more about JGID’s many impressive and customisable features.

Having this much control over your scheduling means fewer mistakes, more productivity, less stress, and saved time.

Timesheets and staff management

Keeping track of your staff and wages can be a job all by itself. However, with JGID, your wages and staff hours can be fully automated, allowing your crew to check into work onsite and log their hours in real-time.

This not only streamlines your timesheets and staff management, but it can also save significantly on staff commute times and company car or fleet costs by allowing your staff to clock in via their smartphones. This removes the need to start at the office or yard before heading to the worksite.

The best part about JGID working across all devices and platforms is the ability to run your business from anywhere you have an internet connection, giving you freedom of movement and complete autonomy.

Finalising payments on site can be done quickly and painlessly on-site on the final day of pack up by allowing complete remote payments by credit or debit card on any smart device. 

Your customer invoice can be emailed, and payment taken immediately, meaning you can both continue onto your next job without outstanding or overdue payments needing to be chased up at the end of the month.
