C and D Rigging

BackgroundHire Software for Hire Industry

C and D Rigging, formed in 1992 by Dave Wiggins and Chris Sayers, is one of the UK’s leading suppliers of rigging and rigging equipment.  It is based in Pinewood Film Studios, the biggest film and TV studio in Europe, right next door to the newly built James Bond 007 Stage, again the largest stage in Europe.

The Problem

C and D Rigging had been using spreadsheets to track their equipment. As the company grew it was taking five days out of every month to do the invoicing and part returns had become excessively time consuming. They became aware that they needed a rental management solution to streamline the business and become more efficient.
C and D Rigging required a system that would be easy to use, give them the flexibility they needed with different rate types and provide a powerful, familiar interface to Microsoft Office products.

The Solution
C and D Rigging selected inspHire Office Edition.

“The inspHire ‘What’s Out Where’ report and the customised Smart Views are brilliant and allow me to see what contracts I have running for each production we are dealing with. Invoicing now takes us a couple of hours instead of the five days that it was taking. Making the investment in inspHire has meant that we did not need to recruit an additional member of admin staff.”  
Chris Sayers, Director, C and D Rigging.
