Business Situation

Why BMS needed a rental solution

The team at BMS was looking at ways to ensure that they were at the top of their game and equipped to tailor rental products according to the changing customer demands. They were seeking a solution that would automatically update every stage in the rental process and the status of each task in real-time. They also needed a new mobility solution that would seamlessly sync and integrate with their ERP, as their existing mobility solution could not do so earlier.

The key pain areas that BMS was trying to address:

  • Mobility: BMS had their mobility solution in place, which did not sync with their ERP, and resulted in confusion of work allocation, general task management, and calculation of work hours.
  • Real-time updates: They needed a solution that would update in real-time automatically without requiring manual intervention to show the status of every task.
  • Monitoring daily operations: Monitoring tasks based on their status in the rental stage was complicated, as over 400 assets were being rented out daily.
  • Process automation: The communication breakdowns and paperwork involved at every stage resulted in various challenges, including delayed billing and payments.
  • Equipment performance overview: With various assets being rented out across diverse markets, overseeing operations and offering flexible rental packages posed significant challenges.

Why BMS chose To-Increase’s DynaRent Solution Suite

The team at BMS realized that their business demands and challenges were quite specific in nature and required a product that would address them effectively. To-Increase's DynaRent solution offered them the means to manage various rental scenarios and processes while enjoying maximum fleet utilization. They could remove unnecessary steps, educate their users, and coordinate with them across the globe. Also, with their deep knowledge of the business, the rental specialists at To-Increase could extend support to BMS in their future growth.

“The biggest change in the ten years that we have been working with DynaRent is, introducing a mobility solution to send out information directly to our crane drivers and get it back into our ERP system. … The consultants really know the rental business and therefore can support us in our future growth.”

– Søren Pedersen, CFO, BMS
