Digital technology specialist Capja will make its Executive Hire Show debut in February 2027, bringing its range of software solutions for equipment management, digital documentation and compliance to the show's 20th anniversary edition.
The company develops digital tools designed to help businesses manage equipment records, compliance documentation and day-to-day operations, reducing paperwork and improving communication between the office and site.
Founded in 2018, Capja has built a growing customer base across the construction, plant hire and lifting industries, with its technology already being used by some well-known names in the sector.
One of its established products, CapjaDocs, uses QR code technology to provide instant access to important machinery and equipment information. By scanning a code using a smartphone, operators, contractors and site teams can retrieve inspection certificates, operating manuals, training records and other essential documents without searching through paperwork or contacting the office.
The company's AssetCapja platform takes equipment management a step further, combining QR, NFC and RFID tagging with asset tracking, inspection records and automated certificate generation. The system gives businesses greater visibility of their equipment and supports the management of inspection and compliance requirements, including LOLER certification.
Capja also offers digital forms for recording site inspections, equipment checks, timesheets and other operational information, helping businesses replace paper-based processes with electronic records.
Capja is also rapidly advancing CapjaDesk, its next-generation hire management platform, developed specifically for plant and equipment hire businesses. Although still evolving, the software is already being used by customers, with positive feedback highlighting its simplicity and ease of use. Connecting quotations, contracts, a live digital daybook, resource allocation, mobile job information and timesheets, CapjaDesk is designed to make daily hire operations easier to manage. Working closely with customers, Capja continues to introduce new functionality based on real industry requirements.
The company's commitment to innovation has been recognised with two Innovate UK awards, supporting the development of its digital solutions and research into artificial intelligence. Capja has also worked in partnership with the Construction Plant-hire Association (CPA), helping to digitise the association's official daily and weekly crane check books using its CapjaDocs QR code solution. The collaboration demonstrates how Capja is working directly with the industry to develop practical digital tools that address everyday operational requirements.
Capja's customer portfolio includes Southern Cranes & Access, Hird, Walls Construction, City Lifting, Lee Lifting, MobiCrane, D&G Noble and McGovern Crane Hire. The company has also worked with Camfaud Concrete Pumps and Premier Concrete Pumping, demonstrating the range of businesses already benefiting from its technology.
Josh Wallman, Co-founder and Director at Capja, said:
“We've spent years working closely with plant and crane hire companies, understanding their challenges and developing technology that makes their working day easier. With so many of our customers attending the Executive Hire Show, it feels like the natural place for us to be, and we're particularly excited to be part of its 20th anniversary celebrations.
“As we continue to introduce more advanced technology and expand our range of solutions, it's the perfect opportunity to showcase what we've been working on, connect with the industry and demonstrate how simple and effective digital transformation can be.”
Chris Moore, Publishing and Events Director, Executive Hire Show, said:
“We're delighted to welcome Capja to the Executive Hire Show for the first time. Digital technology is playing an increasingly important role in how hire businesses manage their equipment, documentation and day-to-day operations. Capja is a great addition to the exhibitor line-up, bringing practical solutions that can make a real difference to efficiency and compliance. We're looking forward to welcoming the team to Coventry in February.”
Capja's first appearance at the Executive Hire Show comes as digital technology and fleet management solutions become an increasingly important part of the exhibition, with more hire businesses looking at ways to improve efficiency, manage their assets and reduce administration.
The Executive Hire Show takes place on 10 and 11 February 2027 at the CBS Arena, Coventry.
