IRIS Announces New Hire Management System for New Zealand Hire and Rental Industries
IRIS Enterprise Software New Zealand announces its new hire management system, IRIS Hiremate, for the New Zealand hire
and rental industry. IRIS Hiremate effectively manages all aspects of the hire operation in one simple yet powerful
system from hires, sales and assets to repairs, invoicing and improving the utilisation of expensive assets. The hire
management system joins the suite of products offered in New Zealand by IRIS who have achieved the reputation as one of
the industry's leading business software suppliers.
IRIS Enterprise Software New Zealand who have nearly two decades of history in the New Zealand market, are excited about
the introduction of the new product. Rupert Ralston, Marketing Manager, said, "IRIS Hiremate is at the cutting edge of
hire management software. It provides New Zealand organisations with a robust, long-term solution with impressive
functionality and management reporting. We believe IRIS Hiremate is the most feature-rich, yet simple to use and
flexible hire system to date, and this is the reason we have added it to our portfolio of empowering tools for New
Zealand businesses. For existing clients, we have made sure that it is quickly, easily and fully integrated with IRIS
Exchequer, our flagship mid-range accounting system,”
The AV Group, suppliers of site accommodations and modular buildings are outspoken proponents of IRIS Hiremate.
According to Natasha Yole, Depot Manager, “the main reason we use IRIS Hiremate is the management of our assets; with
Hiremate we can see at any time where our assets are and what they’re worth. We have around 20 high-profile users
already and deal with huge amounts of hire and invoices. Because it’s straightforward to use, we use IRIS Hiremate
across all of our depots to automate our processes, from initial enquiries right through to final invoices. Also, our
hire equipment is not restricted to a specific depot but spread across our entire fleet. IRIS Hiremate gives us the
visibility we need which is crucial as we work on a real-time basis.”
“We have always found the system very reliable. With IRIS Hiremate we’ve been able to improve our operational efficiency
right across our organisation. Whenever we’ve had a problem, the IRIS support team has always been on hand to help –
they really know our business and us well. Given that we now have over 5,000 items, our old system would have proved
impossible to manage. IRIS Hiremate was our first hire management system, and we’re still using it twenty years on! I
think that speaks for itself!” said Natasha.
IRIS Hiremate offers a comprehensive hire management solution for medium and large organisations who can select from the
impressive variety of standard and optional modules such as the web front-end for hires through to test certificates,
eBusiness, advanced bookings, barcodes and repair workshop. A standard hire management system is also available for
small businesses. This creates a solution that can truly be tailored to a businesses exact requirement and be a suitable
solution both now and in the future as the business grows.
New Zealand businesses that stand to benefit most from IRIS Hiremate include plant and tool hire, radios and
communications rentals, portable accommodations, construction, vehicles and equipment hire. The system will effectively
prevent long-standing problems plaguing the hire industry and improve business performance by keeping costly assets in
circulation, reducing overall costs and increasing productivity.
