SMART Manager

Off-Hire Summary

The off-hire section of the app allows you to off-hire a scaffold ready to be dismantled. You cannot dismantle a scaffold that is on-hire without first off-hiring it. You then select whether you wish to complete a full off-hire or in the case of progressive erection/dismantle complete a partial off-hire.

Once fully off hired you can dismantle the scaffold to remove it from the scaffold register. Sometimes this will be on the same day, or later if the scaffold takes longer to dismantle. Find out how to dismantle a scaffold here.

Completing Full Off-hire

Select Full Off-Hire

Same as with the Handover, select off hire on the home screen, then select the site on which you wish to carry out the Off-hire and select Full off hire. Then select the scaffold or scaffolds you wish to off-hire.

Fill-in the appropriate fields

Then complete the appropriate fields date/time, scaffolds, client name, comments and photos and click done to proceed to the signature screen.

Signing the Off-Hire

Here both the customer and the user must tap and sign before the Off-hire can be completed. If the customer isn’t present you can click “sign later” this will save the Off-hire in the in progress section for you to re-open, sign and submit when the customer is present.
