Norwalk, CT & Flushing, NY [2/13/15] – Durante Rentals, a leading construction equipment, and tool rental company in the New York Tristate area, has joined the SmartEquip Network. Featured extensively in the press as one of the country’s fastest-growing private enterprises, Durante Rentals is scheduled to go live with SmartEquip across all locations by March.
“We are a forward-thinking and tech-savvy company that is constantly looking toward innovation to fuel our growth, which makes for a very natural partnership with SmartEquip,” notes John Durante, the company’s co-founder. “By joining the Network, we can implement best operating practices for both service and parts management across the equipment life cycle, while also fully automating our procurement activity. We anticipate the cost savings in the first year alone to more than pay for the SmartEquip system.”
