CMMS For Earthmoving Fleets
Your fleet runs on hours. Your CMMS should too.
Samurai manages the full maintenance cycle for earthmoving fleets: hour-based service schedules, component tracking, rebuild cycles and rotable management.
No spreadsheet side-systems. No workarounds for software designed for factories. Everything runs in one system, built around how mobile equipment actually operates.
Move beyond spreadsheets and CMMS Not built for your fleet
Your equipment moves between sites, runs on engine hours, cycles through major component rebuilds and swaps serialised parts between machines. Samurai fleet maintenance software is designed around exactly how mobile plant operates, so all of this is handled in one system without workarounds.
Instead of patching gaps with spreadsheets and manual tracking, you get a single, connected platform where maintenance, components and history stay accurate and up to date. Less admin, fewer duplicate records, and a clearer view of what’s happening across your fleet.
Run all maintenance in one system
Service schedules, component tracking, rebuild cycles, cost data and work history all sit in a single platform built for how your fleet actually operates. You’re not stitching together spreadsheets, whiteboards and disconnected tools just to get a basic view of what’s going on.
Every job, service and component change updates the system in real time, giving you one reliable source of truth. No duplicated records, no chasing information, and no end-of-month reconciliation just to understand your fleet performance.
Stop missing services AND Defects
When maintenance is tied to calendar dates instead of actual usage, things slip. Samurai tracks service intervals based on engine hours and real operating conditions, so maintenance happens when it should, not when a spreadsheet says it’s due.
You get early visibility of what’s coming up, what’s overdue and what’s at risk, across every machine. That means fewer missed services, fewer unexpected failures and less reactive work. Instead of firefighting breakdowns, you stay ahead of them with clear, reliable scheduling.
Get rid of spreadsheet side-systems
Most fleets end up running critical processes outside their CMMS because it can’t handle real-world complexity. Samurai replaces those side-systems with a fit-for-purpose CMMS for fleets.
Major components carry their own history, cost and lifecycle, all linked back to the asset. When something changes, the system updates. No manual rework, no version control, and no risk of working off outdated data. Everything stays accurate because it’s captured once, at the source.
Manage complexity without The admin
As fleets grow, maintenance becomes harder to control. More machines, more sites and more moving parts usually means more admin. Samurai fleet maintenance software handles layered service intervals, components and multi-site operations as part of normal workflows, not as exceptions.
Your team doesn’t need to learn a new process every time something changes. The system scales with your fleet, keeping structure and visibility intact without adding overhead, so you can grow without losing control or burying your team in admin.
Samurai CMMS vs Generic CMMS Comparison Table
Most CMMS platforms are built for general maintenance environments, then adapted for mobile equipment later. That usually means workarounds for hour-based servicing, component rebuilds, rotable tracking, contractor work and multi-site fleet operations. Samurai fleet maintenance software is different. It is built around the way earthmoving fleets actually run, with maintenance, downtime, components, forms, costs and work history connected in one system. This comparison shows where generic CMMS tools often fall short, and how Samurai handles the practical realities of managing mobile plant, field crews and growing fleet complexity without adding more admin.
Stop managing your fleet around gaps in your software
When your system doesn’t match how maintenance actually works, gaps get filled with spreadsheets, workarounds and manual tracking. That’s where mistakes happen and problems get picked up too late. Samurai fleet maintenance software removes those gaps with one system built for real fleet operations.

Explore features
| Capability | Generic CMMS | Samurai CMMS |
|---|---|---|
| Best fit | Built for broad maintenance use across facilities, factories, buildings or mixed asset types. | Built for earthmoving, mobile plant and equipment hire fleets. |
| Service scheduling | Often centred around calendar-based maintenance, with limited support for real operating hours. | Hour-based and layered service schedules built around how machines are actually used. |
| Mobile equipment | May need workarounds for machines moving between sites, crews and jobs. | Designed for assets that move across sites, projects and operating conditions. |
| Mobile app | Mobile access may exist, but often feels like a desktop system squeezed onto a phone. | Mobile-first workflows built for fitters, supervisors and crews on site. |
| Crew adoption | Can rely on users entering data after the work is done, which leads to gaps and delays. | Guided workflows capture the right information during the job, not later. |
| Forms | Forms may sit beside the maintenance process instead of driving it. | User-defined mobile forms update asset records, work history and compliance data automatically. |
| Component management | Major components are often tracked manually or treated as notes against the asset. | Components, rebuilds, changeouts and rotables are built into the system. |
| Rotables | Component movement between machines can require spreadsheets or manual updates. | Component history moves with the part when it is swapped, rebuilt or installed elsewhere. |
| Contractor work | External contractor access can create licence issues, admin friction or disconnected records. | Controlled contractor access keeps external work inside the same maintenance record. |
| Downtime visibility | Downtime is often reconstructed later from work orders, notes or phone calls. | Downtime is captured as real site events, giving clearer availability reporting. |
| Life cycle costing | Costs are usually reported after the fact, with limited forward visibility. | Dynamic life cycle costing helps show true asset cost, risk and future spend. |
| Fleet growth | More assets often means more configuration, admin and side systems. | Handles growing fleets without forcing ERP-level complexity or extra admin. |
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Samurai fleet maintenance software supports data upload during setup, so you can bring across asset registers, service histories and component records from your current system or spreadsheets. We’ll work with you to structure the data properly so it’s usable from day one, not just imported and left to clean up later.
Yes. Service intervals are configured per asset or asset type. You can run different schedules across your fleet to match OEM requirements, machine application or your own maintenance strategy, all within the same system.
Samurai fleet maintenance software tracks each component’s life, service history and accumulated cost. That data gives you a clear view of what a component has cost over its life and what it’s likely to cost going forward, so you can make rebuild or replace decisions based on actual numbers, not guesswork.
Yes. Components are tracked independently from the asset, so when they’re swapped between machines, their full history moves with them. You don’t lose lifecycle data or cost visibility, and the system automatically updates where that component is installed.
Yes. Samurai is built for fleets operating across multiple sites. Assets, work orders and schedules are all managed in one system, with role-based access for different crews and contractors. You get one version of the truth across the entire fleet without needing separate systems or manual consolidation.
