Technology services and consultancy firm Comvergent has expanded its van fleet through Enterprise Flex-E-Rent in order to support significant business growth.

The introduction of new Comvergent vehicles, which include a range of short wheel base and long wheel base Transits, doubles the size of the company’s fleet.

The company began sourcing vehicles through Enterprise Flex-E-Rent in 2014 in response to customer demand on a particular project where lead times were extremely short. Since then, Enterprise Flex-E-Rent has helped to support growth across the whole business, enabling Comvergent to quickly scale the fleet up or down in line with project demand.

Comvergent also rents passenger cars via Enterprise Rent-A-Car to support general business travel, especially for those employees who do not have access to a company vehicle.

Comvergent finance director Gareth Hughes said: “Leasing vehicles in this way reduces the amount of time and resource we spend managing, maintaining and purchasing vehicles. The flexibility also enables us to scale our fleet up and down quickly, which is vital in the fast-moving technology environment.”

“Vehicles being off the road can have a huge impact on meeting our customers’ needs,” he added.

“Enterprise Flex–E–Rent always has a depot or a branch office in the right location, which means it can swap out vehicles that have been damaged or may need repair within a matter of hours, nationwide. This means we can ensure we are always able to respond quickly to our customers’ needs.”

Danny Glynn, managing director of Enterprise Flex-E-Rent, said, “Comvergent is an excellent example of how rental can provide a flexible, tailor-made transport solution that fully supports a fast-growing business in a fast-moving sector.

“We continue to invest in building our network of depots and branches to ensure continuity of service for companies like Comvergent, and also access to technical expertise for every type of vehicle.
