HIBOO has announced a major expansion of its customer portfolio with the agreement of a three-year deal with Blackwood Plant Hire.

The Paris-headquartered software management firm specialises in data and decarbonisation management for industrial fleets, with the partnership with Blackwood Plant Hire seeing it manage data for the firm’s entire fleet to support growth.

Hiboo will provide access to the location of its partner’s vehicles – enabling them to be geo-fenced – their fuel and carbon consumption rates, inactivity rates, fault codes and live real-time data from manufacturers. Hiboo will also offer an additional service to Blackwood’s customers by opening dedicated accounts so they can access their own site data.

Hiboo said, “The Hiboo platform provides a unified, real-time view of equipment usage. It facilitates automated monitoring of the carbon footprint, optimises transport and maintenance, and speeds up decision-making thanks to reliable and shared data.”
