Case Study: Light Tower Rentals achieves DOT inspection compliance and efficiency gains with eMaint

Light Tower Rentals Passes DOT Inspections and Maximizes Efficiency through GPS Integration

Light Tower Rentals, a well-site equipment rental company headquartered in Odessa, Texas, grew from a single operation to 14 locations with about 8,700 assets, primarily industrial generators. As growth outpaced their informal whiteboard-based maintenance process, the company needed an affordable, web-based, easy-to-use system to track assets and standardize maintenance across all sites.

They implemented eMaint CMMS with GPS units on engine assets and phased rollouts, plus MX Mobile for field technicians. GPS-driven runtime data now triggers automatic preventive maintenance, SOPs and LOTO procedures are attached to PMs, and dashboards and reports provide company-wide visibility. The result: improved labor efficiency and productivity, better safety and DOT inspection readiness, and clearer cost/hours tracking to support repair-versus-replace decisions.
