Tasman Oil Tools is an oilfield rental and service company with operations in Western Australia, Northern Territory and Victoria. Its broad range of rental equipment, support products and services is relied on for onshore and offshore oil and gas drilling, coal bed methane and geothermal drilling operations. Approximately 80 percent of Tasman Oil Tool’s revenue comes from its rental business. This means that knowing where equipment is, whether it’s available to rent out and its condition, is critical when trying to maximise revenue. Yet, at Tasman Oil Tools, this information was hard to find. For Tasman Oil Tools’ management it was a time for refection and planning.
The company revisited the idea of upgrading its computer systems. The company engaged an independent consultant to help evaluate the project. A number of software packages were briefly considered but none met Tasman Oil Tools’ requirements as well as the combined Professional Advantage/Microsoft Dynamics GP/Wennsoft solution.
