Customized platform for ConTech startup by ROQ
German construction sites have hardly been digitized to date - Flexcavo aimes to change this
German construction sites have hardly been digitized to date. Documenting or recording costs is cumbersome and companies often lack an overview of their own construction machinery fleet.
As a result, construction machines usually have a high downtime. The ConTech startup (Construction Technology) Flexcavo has developed the digital platform FlexcavoOS, which enables construction companies to digitally manage their fleet.
With FlexcavoOS, higher utilization of the machine fleet is achieved, which increases the profitability of the fleet.
An important component of FlexcavoOS is the rental of construction machinery:
Customers can rent wheel loaders, excavators, vibratory plates and co. in real time
Customers can pick up construction machinery or have it delivered
Flexcavo handles the entire rental process, including payment, additional services and return.
How Flexcavo benefits from the ROQ platform
FlexcavoOS enables customers to rent construction equipment easily and in real time. Payment and user management functions are available for rental and return. Additional services such as insurance and CO2 compensation are also included in the offer. Flexcavo was able to focus on the complex rental logic from day one. For the standard functions, Flexcavo took advantage of the proven ROQ tech stack and didn't have to build everything from scratch.
Why the ROQ platform?
