Bucket trucks, digger derricks, service vans and trailers work at height, on live infrastructure, often a long way from the depot. Gearbox tracks the daily check, the aerial device inspections and the service schedule on one record per unit, so the crew leaves in a truck that is fit for the job.
A bucket truck carries a chassis service schedule, an aerial device inspection schedule and a dielectric test, each on its own clock. Miss one and the truck should not go up. Gearbox holds all of them on the same record, feeding one status, so the yard can see at a glance which units are cleared to work.
Crews run the checklist on their phone, with the aerial device, outriggers and chassis items on the same list. A failed item is photographed, raised as a fault and in front of the workshop before the truck is on the road.
Periodic aerial device inspections, dielectric tests and the annual safety inspection each run on their own due dates against the unit, with reminders at the lead time you set. The compliance dashboard shows every inspection due across the fleet in the next 7, 14 and 30 days.
A bucket truck idles for hours while the boom works and may not move far in a day. Gearbox alerts on hours, miles or days, whichever comes first, with readings from your telematics, so the chassis and the hydraulics are serviced on the work they have done.
Chassis, aerial device and attachments on the same asset, with every inspection, service and repair in one history.
A checklist per unit type on the crew's phone, with photos on anything that fails and offline when there is no signal.
A failed item becomes a fault report and then a work order, with repeat faults visible on the unit.
Licences, medicals and training tracked per person, with reminders before anything expires.
Stock held per site with reorder levels, and tire work tracked as its own job so tire spend lands on the right truck.
Odometers and hours arrive from your telematics, and purchase orders flow to your accounting system.
