United Rentals Benefits from Intergis Fleet Software Solution

Founded in 1997, United Rentals, Inc. is the largest equipment rental company in the world, with nearly 700 rental locations throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Its diverse customer base includes construction and industrial companies, utilities, municipalities, and homeowners.

United Rentals wanted to gain operational efficiencies by better managing its fleet and drivers. Using the Intergis tracking and reporting solution - Vericom MRM - United Rentals is now able to monitor and report on its large fleet of vehicles, drivers and other assets. The Intergis solution has significantly helped dispatchers gain control and efficiencies when scheduling and optimizing routes.

With Vericom MRM, United Rentals’ drivers are much more productive with shorter stop times at job sites. Time cards are accurate and not rounded off since the Intergis GPS vehicle tracking system kicks on as soon as drivers start their trucks in the morning.

“We've had Intergis units for a month now and we really love it – so does my dispatcher,” says Bob LoRusso, branch manager with United Rentals.

“It has helped us to be much more efficient and also to control overtime with our drivers - who are suddenly very productive! The driver logs match up with the Vericom MRM GPS detail report that we view. We always know exactly where they are and now we don't have drivers out of contact because they are in a weak signal area for our Nextel phones. We experienced an ROI in the first week of use!”
