MCS Rental Software has added 23 new telematics suppliers to its telematics hub, taking the total number of connected providers to 39.
Built to support rental teams in their day-to-day operations, the new telematics integrations provide improved visibility of equipment usage, a better understanding of telematics events and a quicker process to assist with machine warnings.
Hire companies can use plain English to query equipment usage captured through telematics data. This information can be used to identify instances of over-usage and provides valuable data to support accurate CO2 reporting, and ultimately can extend into the MCS online portal, enabling rental customers to access CO2 and fuel usage reports directly. This is particularly valuable for businesses that need to report on emissions and fuel usage as part of their legal and sustainability requirements.
The 23 recently added integrations include CAT, Manitou, Mecalac, Niftylift, Wacker Neuson, Skyjack, Genie, Jekko, AUSA, and Generac Mobile, alongside many other telematics specialists.
As well as improving visibility, the integrations help rental businesses save time when troubleshooting equipment. By viewing telematics data directly within their rental management workflows, teams can identify potential causes of problems without having to visit the site unnecessarily.
“These new telematics integrations make it so much easier for rental businesses to access information as part of their normal day-to-day workflows. Rather than having to log into a separate provider platform, our customers can now access equipment information and view telematics data all in one place," explained Chief Sales Officer, Nick Thomson.
"With 39 telematics providers now connected to the MCS Telematics Hub, we’re able to support a huge range of equipment, including telehandlers, MEWPs, forklifts, cranes, generators, light towers and more. Our goal is to make telematics data a natural part of the rental operation, rather than something teams have to access separately.”
