Besides the lifting services search, MYCRANE offers a number of 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 in the heavy lift and project cargo sector. "MYCRANE was born from the desire to change the existing outdated and inconvenient methods of procuring crane services, and to make life easier for people requiring lifting services," he says.
"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 services will be.”
“With MYCRANE, there are no more phone calls or unclear quotations to decipher - just easy-to-understand quotes delivered directly 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," he informs.
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.
The platform is suitable for cranes between 6- and 750-ton capacities. Crawler, mobile, and tower cranes can all be requested on the site. The team is also working on adding new crane types, such as fast assemble tower cranes, gantry cranes, mini cranes, and others.
MYCRANE service, which is headquartered in Dubai, UAE (company name MYCRANE DMCC), operates on a franchise model. Enquiries are welcome from industry professionals interested in operating the MYCRANE service in their home country.
MYCRANE is already operational in Russia and will soon be launched in key international markets including the United States, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Germany, the Netherlands, South Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, and India.
Besides a lifting services search, there are plans to introduce an Online Marketplace to advertise used equipment, rigging equipment, spare parts and auxiliaries, and job vacancies, while a news portal will allow users to stay up-to-date with the latest industry developments.
In time, additional features will be offered, such as engineering and design services and legal support. Geikalo concludes: "We believe MYCRANE will set a new standard for the lifting business - making crane rental easier, quicker and more transparent."
