Most equipment businesses pride themselves in using innovative approaches to improve rental and transportation management. The reality is that business practices have evolved tremendously in recent years, and it has created exciting opportunities for businesses to take new measures to improve their services.
Given this environment, growth-oriented equipment companies have started looking at the bigger picture. One proven method to improve delivery and increase profits is the implementation of modern, multifunctional transportation management software to automate and streamline rental and transportation services.
Securing operations with the latest technology helps with covering multi-mode channels for ensuring quick and efficient equipment delivery, and it also assists with managing less-than-load shipments. All while ensuring collaboration and communication between shipper and carrier simultaneously. Additionally, the latest transportation management systems provide a safe and reliable means to connect with drivers, process orders, oversee warehouse departments, and process depot management.
Let’s have a closer look at how you can dramatically improve your rental and transportation operations using a modern, unified tech strategy:
1) Multi-mode delivery channels
Your customers depend on you to deliver on time, often using multiple modes of transport. A modern and unified rental and transportation management technology strategy helps with automation and enablement of multiple modes of delivery channels.
The reduction in manual tracking and documentation and increased workflow bandwidth will naturally result in more sales and a healthier bottom line.
2) Automated workflow
Innovative technology specially designed for the equipment rental and transportation industry has helped with the automation of workflow, and it has allowed for significant progress in the streamlining and standardization of services.

They are great for scheduling tasks to employees and to easily supervise and manage operations wherever you, or they, are – even while on the go.
