More and more people
(and companies) strive to have equipment ‘available’ instead of ‘own’ the
equipment. And for good reasons: always the latest model, no space required
when the equipment is not used, no maintenance, no insurance, no entry on your
assets, etc.
As a result, equipment
rental companies are booming.
And this is not only
valid for heavy equipment. The world is changing rapidly:
- Do you
still buy CD’s or are you using Spotify or YouTube Music for your favorite
music instead?
- Are you
still buying DVD’s or are you watching Netflix (or similar movie services)?
- Do you
still own a car for eventualities or do you make use Greenwheels?
Availability is key!
And consequently RENTAL IS BOOMING!
In the Equipment Rental
business, two aspects are real differentiators: Price and service.
Availability during the
rental period is key. So ‘service’ is a differentiator for an equipment rental
company. Are you flexible and able to replace your rented equipment quickly, if necessary? Do you have a good service
‘track record’ in the field? Is there a ‘planned maintenance schedule’ for the
equipment that you rent?
Hopefully, you are an
expert in service.
But is your
information system able to support you in this service execution? Is your
spare-parts management right? Too many spare-parts cost you a lot of money, but
too few spare-parts even more.
