Nexus Rental has launched a dedicated plant, equipment and HGV rental platform.
Built on the Iris platform and a UK supply partner network, Nexus said it directly addressed the hidden cost and complexity of multi-supply partner hire management.
The network includes over 700,000 assets across more than 125 supply partners and over 650 branches.
Nexus said the Iris platform brought everything together in one place and offered a hire management module, bespoke account configuration, compliance management, damage claims workflows, self-service reporting, and centralised invoice processing.
There is also a ‘Live Hire Desk’, made up of a team of plant, equipment and HGV specialists that are available via phone, email or live chat.
Nexus said every customer interaction was handled by a real expert, not an automated system, so that complex hire requirements, urgent requests, and operational queries could be resolved quickly and accurately.
It added that as a result, customers would save between £50-£75 per hire because the platform eliminated time spent managing multiple supply partners, reconciling invoices from multiple sources, handling disputes and billing errors, manual reporting, general admin work and sourcing.
Gerry McCaig, Nexus COO, said: “This proposition is built on three things, a market-leading platform in Iris, a supply partner network that covers the entire UK and a team of real Plant, Equipment and HGV experts managing the detail on behalf of our customers.
“That combination is what sets us apart and it is something we are proud to deliver as a responsible business.”
