CRANE RENTAL GOES DIGITAL, THANKS TO MYCRANE MyCrane is a digital platform designed to disrupt and simplify the process of crane rental procurement. Launched in mid-2021, MyCrane allows users to submit details of their lifting requirements in order to receive personalised quotes from a range of registered crane providers. MYCRANE ALSO OFFERS A NUMBER of other tools for the crane industry, including a marketplace and support services such as engineering and legal consultancy. The site has been developed by entrepreneur and industry professional Andrei Geikalo, a former commercial director at Mammoet Russia. “MyCrane was born out of the desire to change the existing outdated and inconvenient methods of procuring crane services, and to make life easier for those who require lifting services,” said Geikalo. “At present, crane rental is a manual, old-fashioned process that takes far too much time. In launching the service, we have combined the latest digital technology with our long industry experience. I have personally been involved in countless heavy cargo and lifting projects, so I know only too well how useful our service will prove to be. “With MyCrane, there are no more phone calls or unclear quotations to decipher – just easy-to-understand quotes delivered direct to your inbox. And when you need to change your quote, simply amend your online request at the MyCrane website and our equipment providers will be back in touch.” MyCrane, which took over two years to develop, removes the need for users to contact multiple equipment providers. Instead, users are requested to complete an online request form, which has been carefully designed to ensure they receive directly comparable quotations.
