Automated Point of Rental Maintenance Due Alerts

Every Monday, WebRun opens Point of Rental, checks each asset's engine hours and calendar interval against its preventive maintenance schedule, logs every asset due or overdue to a maintenance tracking sheet in Google Sheets, and posts your shop team a Slack alert ranked by how overdue each item is.

In short

How do I track preventive maintenance due dates across my rental fleet?

WebRun checks Point of Rental every Monday for equipment approaching or past its preventive maintenance interval, comparing hours and calendar time against your schedule. It logs every asset due or overdue to a Google Sheet and posts your shop team a Slack alert ranked by how overdue each one is, so service happens before a breakdown hits the jobsite.

  • Service intervals are checked every week instead of when equipment fails
  • Both engine hours and calendar time are tracked, not just one
  • The shop team gets a prioritized queue instead of a flat asset list

Built for construction equipment rental yards · heavy equipment maintenance teams · rental fleet shop managers · equipment service coordinators

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it book the service appointment for me?

No. WebRun only identifies which assets are due or overdue and logs them to your maintenance sheet. Scheduling the actual service with your shop or a vendor stays a decision for your team.

Does it track hours or just calendar time?

Both. It compares each asset's engine hours and the days since its last service against the interval you have set in Point of Rental, and flags whichever threshold is closer.

What if an asset is out on a long-term rental when it comes due?

WebRun still flags it based on the maintenance schedule. Your team can coordinate the service with the renter or plan it for the asset's next return.

Put this on autopilot.
