If you are seeking to rent something not currently in stock, then Hire Intelligence might choose to invest in the latest technology you require. If Hire Intelligence don’t choose to purchase the equipment and then rent it to you, they can use their network of partners, even including other rental companies (such as Compuhire, PPT and Hire IT) who all provide slightly different ranges & service. Hire Intelligence could source from them and combine this additional equipment with their own core assets and service levels, thus giving you everything you need from one reliable supplier.

Service Levels:

As mentioned, customer experience is a key driver for Hire Intelligence. The vision is to make Hire Intelligence the most respected technology rental provider, our aim to consistently exceed customer expectation. This can be seen in the talent, skills, determination and additional efforts of the staff, and in the stated value of ’embracing innovation’.

Some examples of this service: Hire Intelligence will deliver a working day prior to your rental period for no additional cost, meaning you have the equipment at the very start of your day. Hire Intelligence will collect the working day after your rental period ends, meaning you don’t need to rush to pack away or panic if your event overruns. When assets are collected, there will be a call the day before to check all is ok, and Hire Intelligence logistics team always ensure they have a mobile number (and will share the drivers) to make sure things go smoothly. Much of the equipment is delivered in original and individual packaging, thus giving the ‘out of box new’ experience, and ensuring all accessories and cables are clearly laid out for swift use. Where an adaptor is commonly required, it is included alongside the rented hardware free of charge. All laptops are delivered in their own laptop bag, with their own power adaptor, and own mouse inside the bag, so there is no need to rummage through large boxes of deliveries or crates of equipment, and each end user can handle their allocated laptop with ease. For large orders, Hire Intelligence ensure they provide consistent models of devices, so both the look and performance of rental equipment is consistent for all end users. Hire Intelligence will only keep technology in the rental fleet if the equipment is in good or excellent condition. If the item is not fit for a visiting VIP or CEO, or couldn’t be used to elegantly display artwork in a gallery, then it will not rented out to clients. These considerations alongside clear paperwork, experienced sales and technician teams, dedicated account management and swift communication are part of what drive positive reviews, an excellent ‘net promoter score’, and growth.
