One of the key improvements is said to be the ability to schedule deliveries in phases. This feature allows rental businesses to better manage large orders by breaking down deliveries into more manageable steps, ensuring that equipment arrives at the right time and in the right sequence.

The software also offers a check-in process for equipment returns. When equipment is brought back, users can categorise items as either in need of cleaning, damaged, or damaged beyond repair. Each category is associated with different charges, ensuring that customers are billed accurately for any issues with the returned equipment.

The software allows businesses to track the availability of equipment in real time and, based on the condition of the returned equipment, the system is updated to move items from ‘available’ to ‘unavailable’ status, automatically adjusting stock levels. 

The software is mobile-friendly, enabling staff to take photos of equipment, record signatures from customers, and complete other tasks whilst on-site.

Nick Thomson, MCS Sales Director, says, “The enhanced check-in process, phased delivery scheduling, and improved yard operations reflect our commitment to digitalising and optimising workflows for rental companies across all sectors. The ability to access the software via a mobile device further demonstrates how far we have come, and we are excited to continue empowering business in the ever-evolving rental industry.”
