“DynaRent’s a proven solution for us, and more important, it’s extremely flexible. We can count on both the software and the implementation team for a fit that’s right for our company.”

Søren Pedersen, BMS, CFO

Business Situation
The team at BMS was looking at ways to ensure that they were at the
top of their game when it comes to the rental market. Even though BMS
specializes in cranes, man lifts, and other equipment across various
markets, overseeing operations was becoming difficult due to diverse
markets and the demands customers make on them. They had come up
with a mobility solution to coordinate with their field staff. However, this
mobility solution would not sync with their ERP causing extra work.

They were looking for a solution that would update on real-time automatically without requiring time and efforts to update the status of tasks. With more than 400 assets being rented out, the volume of tasks was huge. And monitoring of tasks based on their being received started, in-progress was complicated and required a lot of effort. The paperwork involved at every stage and the communication breakdowns would result in delayed billing and thereby payments.

By using DynaRent, BMS is now better prepared to handle the
various demands that arise in the dynamic rental market

The lines of communications with field staff like crane operators
and drivers are clear and with the mobility factor added, updates are
instantaneously leading to better customer service. The team at BMS
realized with their experience of having used DynaRent, that there
are very few products in the market that could help them deal with
the demands of their business. DynaRent offered them the means to
manage various scenarios and processes. They could then remove
unnecessary steps, educate users, and coordinate with them across
the globe.

The financial benefit of DynaRent AX2012 that the invoiceable hours
can be updated at the earliest reducing the payment cycle. The
overseeing of tasks was also easy with a dashboard that not only
detailed tasks but also showed their status with different colors. They
can benefit from a platform that will support future needs, better
integration, and offer more features and control of utilization. Since the
ERP and mobility aspects are in sync, control is better, and now they
can concentrate on maintenance. With the use of DynaRent, invoicing
was much faster, thereby faster payments, and this resulted in the
better overall planning of finances.
