Events & Rentals - Tent Company
About Premiere Party Rentals
Premier Party Rentals is a full-service event rental company specializing in tents, tables, chairs, linens, and other event essentials. Based in Chicago, they serve weddings, corporate events, and private parties throughout the Midwest. Before automation, they managed approximately 200 events per year with a team of 15 staff members and seasonal workers.
The Challenge: Complex Logistics and Inventory Management
Premier Party Rentals was facing significant operational challenges that were limiting their growth and profitability: • Manual booking and inventory management led to double-bookings and equipment conflicts • Complex logistics for delivery, setup, and pickup were difficult to coordinate • Staff was spending excessive time on phone calls and emails with clients • Invoicing and payment collection was inconsistent and time-consuming • Seasonal scaling was difficult due to training requirements for temporary staff These challenges resulted in missed opportunities, customer disappointment, and operational inefficiencies during their busiest seasons. Owner Jennifer Martinez knew they needed a better system to scale their business.

BridgeOps.ai developed a comprehensive automation solution tailored to Premier Party Rentals' specific needs: • Real-time inventory management system with conflict prevention • Automated booking and confirmation process with digital contracts • Intelligent delivery scheduling and crew assignment • Automated client communications for all stages of the event process • Digital payment processing and invoice management • Post-event feedback collection and review management The system was designed to be intuitive for both office staff and field crews, with mobile access for on-site updates and information.
