- In June 2023, Boels Rental disclosed that it spent EUR 551 million last year to expand and diversify its rental equipment range, now comprising 840,000 items, 81% of which are electric-powered. Much of the investment went into construction equipment with new battery, electric, and hybrid technologies, helping customers meet evolving government regulations and Net Zero targets by reducing their carbon footprints.
- In January 2023, Ardent Hire announced the opening of its new super-hub depot at Chawston, near Bedford. The new facility is on the A1 and offers excellent access to London and the North. With over 6 acres of concreted space, the site includes office and workshop facilities and a new training center that is being built.
- In January 2023, John Deere introduced a new dealer business system powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 to provide a common technology platform for many aspects of a dealer's business, allowing dealers to capitalize on new opportunities for growth, innovation, and customer insights. Both companies will leverage their expertise to deliver this cutting-edge technology. Dynamics 365 applications will seamlessly integrate John Deere dealers' sales, rental, aftermarket, and administrative capabilities to enable higher levels of process automation and decision-making insights.
