The Challenge
Project Power previously used numerous software solutions to manage its generator and power equipment rental business. This resulted in extremely time-consuming processes and made it difficult to keep track of its large number of equipment assets and components. The company was looking for an integrated system to handle asset management, accounting and customer relationships.
The Solution
Offering everything Project Power needed from its rental software solution, MCS makes quote to invoice along with asset tracking and customer relationship management easier than ever.
Invoicing
This has made our business operate more efficiently. Our team used to complete end-of-month invoice runs manually which could take 2-3 days. MCS rental software allows us to complete end-of-month invoice runs at the click of a button; it is so much more efficient.
Why MCS
We were using multiple software solutions for quoting, asset management and invoicing. We wanted to combine it into one package, and that’s exactly what MCS Rental Software does. MCS is the one-stop shop for rental companies like Project Power. It covers everything we need, including asset tracking and invoicing.
Picking and Check-in
Project Power uses the picking and checking function for every job. A small warehouse team scans everything as they leave and when they return to the warehouse. This includes all our cables, fuel tanks and distribution boards and can include anything up to 2,500-3000 items per contract. The check-in function has proved invaluable to ensure all our equipment has been returned. We know the whereabouts of all our assets at any given time which we didn’t know in the past and items frequently went missing.
MCS Support
The MCS Customer Club and Knowledge Base are always really helpful. Whenever we log incidents on the Customer Club the MCS team is always on hand and respond really quickly and are often resolved on the same day.
The Benefits
Since using MCS Rental Software, Project Power has been able to:
- Improve equipment selection and tracking resulting in fewer items being lost
- Monitor how much time is spent on repairs and equipment preparation in the workshop
- Reduce the amount of time spent on routine tasks
