Real-Time Control for Scaffolding & Rental Operations

Running scaffolding & equipment rental means handling site surveys, quotes, deliveries, erect/dismantle schedules, inspections, tag compliance, asset tracking, damage notes, swaps, collections, and emergency call-outs — often across multiple sites, tight access windows, and strict safety rules. Teams need live visibility of who’s on-site, which structures or assets are in scope, what parts are issued, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Scaffolding & Equipment Rental — clear statuses, precise assignments, and clean handoffs between sales, dispatch, yard, rigging crews, and GC/site managers.
