Designed with the police, owned by the CEA and adopted across the industry, CESAR is the official scheme of the construction and agricultural machinery industries.

CESAR deters equipment theft, allows police to easily identify machines, and helps recover stolen machinery. It has developed significantly since it was established, thanks to the organisations and people involved in its delivery and support.

The scheme’s existing delivery contract will expire in 2028. In line with good governance and procurement practice, we’re going through a retendering process for the future delivery of the scheme.

In 2026, the 700,000th CESAR registration kit entered the market, demonstrating that the scheme is a well and truly established within the industry. That’s why we’re making every effort to ensure that it stays robust and fit for purpose for the sectors that rely on it.

CEA Chief Executive Viki Bell is at Parliament today, representing the construction equipment sector at an Enginuity roundtable with Saqib Bhatti MBE MP, Shadow Minister for Education, and Baroness Amanda Spielman.

The session will examine the cost of the engineering and manufacturing skills gap, with a particular focus on the experience of SMEs and how the apprenticeship system could work better for employers. Viki will bring the views of CEA members to the discussion, including the need for technical training that reflects real employer demand, practical support for businesses investing in workforce development, and a stronger pipeline of skilled people into the sector.

Skills remain one of the biggest challenges facing construction equipment businesses, so it is important that our industry has a voice as future policy is shaped.

CPF, Construction Plant Finance , introduces flexible funding option for new equipment

Welcome to the CEA Member Insight series, where we take a closer look at products and services relevant to members. In this edition, we look at PlantFlex, CPF’s new funding option for construction equipment.

CPF has launched PlantFlex, a funding option for contractors, plant hire firms and owner-operators buying new equipment. Built around a Business Contract Purchase structure, it gives customers a choice at the end of the agreement rather than committing them to ownership from the outset.
