Opeux for small teams

Plant management software for small operators

Opeux combines a live plant register with hire agreements, recurring billing and service tracking — so every digger, dumper, telehandler and access platform has one record from purchase to disposal.

The problem

Most small plant businesses can't answer simple questions in under a minute: where is asset 042, when was it last serviced, who's it on hire to and what's it earned this month?

How Opeux helps

Opeux Assets and Opeux Hire share one workspace, so each machine carries its location, on-hire status, service history and revenue in one place.

What you get

  • Live plant register with serial and location
  • On-hire vs available status per machine
  • Service and inspection due dates
  • Hire agreements linked to each asset
  • Recurring weekly billing per machine
  • Damage and missing-part history

Start with this if…

  • You re-type the same hire contract every booking
  • You lose track of which kit is out and when it's due back
  • Recurring weekly or monthly rental invoices get forgotten
  • Damage and missing items get noticed too late to bill for
  • You take international bookings and need multi-currency invoicing

What you can manage

  • Hire catalogue with day, week and month rates
  • Live availability calendar across staff and sites
  • Customers, contracts and deposits in one record
  • On-hire vs off-hire status per item
  • Damage notes and condition photos on return
  • Renewals and extensions without re-typing the agreement

Documents you can produce

  • Branded quotes for each hire enquiry
  • E-signable hire agreements with terms and deposits
  • Recurring rental invoices in the customer's currency
  • Off-hire and damage reports on return
  • Statements of account for long-running hires

Billing workflows

  • Recurring weekly or monthly rental invoices
  • Refundable deposits on agreement signature
  • Extra-week and extension billing
  • Damage and replacement charges
  • Polite overdue reminder cadence
  • Multi-currency invoicing for international customers

AI helper examples

  • Draft a hire agreement from a quote in seconds
  • Suggest a polite overdue return reminder
  • Summarise damage notes into a customer-ready report
  • Write a renewal email when a hire is about to lapse
