IMC Overview

Machine Catalog

The Ironworks Machine Catalog module (IMC) provides a comprehensive digital catalog for construction professionals and companies seeking to manage their equipment portfolios efficiently. It holds millions of data points about tens of thousands of make-model-year machines:

  • OEM Specifications: Essential details such as machine dimensions, production capacities, regulatory compliance, and safety features. These specs help users understand equipment capabilities and ensure compliance with industry standards.
  • Cost Guidance: Comprehensive charge rate guidance and cost factors, including ownership (custody) and operation costs. This data aids in setting accurate rates and recovering machine employment costs, which is essential for bid success and profitability.
  • Machine Employment Cost Factors: Guidance values for three custody types (rent, lease, own) and three parameters (max, mean, min) aiding in estimating the cost of machine employment under specific conditions.
  • Parts and Maintenance Information: Easily accessible data on parts numbers and maintenance schedules, allowing technicians to streamline repairs and upkeep.

Built with advanced AI, IMC is more than a data repository; it’s a strategic tool that helps users make informed decisions based on extensive, reliable information about construction machinery. IMC is ideal for those who need actionable equipment management data:

  • Cost Estimators can access precise make-model-year specific data needed to build accurate machine employment cost estimates, ensuring competitive pricing and project bids.
  • Equipment Managers can leverage IMC to evaluate equipment lifecycle costs, make decisions on maintenance schedules, measure the performance of equipment maintenance programs, and assess purchase or resale options.
  • Executives can use IMC’s financial data to understand how equipment choices impact broader business strategies, revenue projections, and bidding success.
  • Technicians can quickly access OEM specs, mechanical properties, and parts information.
  • Project Managers can find the right machines for their jobs by comparing candidates’ mechanical properties, production capacity, regulatory compliance, and safety features.
