Point of Rental
"Latner takes me 50% less time to do anything than Point of Rental. It's been seamless; the workflow is truly end-to-end."
Andrew Smith, CEO
The Problem
Control Hire had been running on Point of Rental, a server-hosted, legacy hire management system.
With disconnected modules for workshop, contracts, and hire, day-to-day work was fragmented and slow. Staff navigated unintuitive screens, mobile access in the field was impractical, and the business leaned on dedicated administrators just to keep operations moving.
As the team grew, the software simply couldn't keep pace. Data capture was inconsistent, and the time cost of doing anything kept adding up.
"Control Hire replaced Point of Rental with Latner and cut processing time in half, across three states."
Andrew Smith, CEO
The Solution
Latner replaced Point of Rental with a true cloud-based, end-to-end workflow.
The full rollout across all three branches was completed in just four weeks, one of the fastest implementations Latner had ever seen.
With Latner's mobile app, field staff could capture data on the road and on site in real time. The seamless workflow from quote to contract to work order eliminated the disconnected processes staff had worked around for years.
Information is power.
The easier and more convenient it is to capture data, the more likely staff are to enter it consistently. That compounding effect on data quality has had an impact across the entire operation.
The Result
50% Reduction in time to process any transaction compared to Point of Rental
6× Team growth, with minimal admin support required
4 weeks Complete rollout across three branches
Real-time Data capture from the field, workshop, and office via mobile app
