NES Rentals Holdings, Inc. Selects eCredit to Power Credit and Collections Automation
-- Leading Equipment Rental and Leasing Agent Chooses Integrated nFusion(R) Suite --
DEDHAM, Mass., May 4 /PRNewswire/ -- eCredit, the leading provider of Web- based credit and collections automation applications, today announced that NES Rentals (NES) has selected the eCredit(R) nFusion(R) suite to automate its credit and collections processes. In an effort to create business processes that are easily audited and replicated, NES has replaced independent credit and collections solutions from different vendors with nFusion 4.0's integrated suite.
NES will begin implementation of nFusion immediately. The single automated platform will help NES address compliance issues and provide higher levels of support and service to its customer base. The zero-footprint, eCredit-hosted model which the company will be employing will allow users across its more than 140 North American branch offices anytime, anywhere access to customer credit and collections profiles. Additionally, with a newly created Shared Services Center, credit managers will use nFusion to service flagged accounts and to perform portfolio analytics, creating an early warning system for upper management regarding acceptable credit exposures and risk levels.
"The eCredit nFusion suite will afford us a strong competitive advantage by delivering an integrated credit and collections automation platform," said Chris Snyder, Director of Shared Services for NES. "In addition to providing what we felt were the industry's best standalone credit and collections solutions, the integration between the two modules will allow NES to improve overall business performance and facilitate financial compliance."
"As more companies like NES choose to automate credit and collections on the nFusion platform, our strategy of building out the industry's most powerful integrated suite gains further momentum," said Jeff Dickerson, president of eCredit. "We are excited to be able to provide businesses like NES with the power to streamline their business credit and collections operations, providing enhanced service to their customers and improving overall business execution."
