About Midas Transport

Midas Transport is a national haulage and distribution company handling direct and subcontract deliveries, including chilled goods, dry goods, plant deliveries, and more. They are also the sole national distributor of plants to all Wilko stores across the UK.

The Challenge: Manual Processes Holding Growth Back

Before working with RentUrApp, Midas Transport  operated without a formal Transport Management System (TMS). All delivery planning, defect checks, and invoicing were done using manual Excel spreadsheets — a process that was:

• Time-consuming and laborious for office staff
• Prone to delays due to late paperwork return from drivers
• Inefficient for invoicing and customer reporting

This lack of digital tools meant that critical operational data was often days out of date, limiting visibility and slowing response times.

Our Solution: A Bespoke Digital TMS

Midas provided RentUrApp with a list of business needs, and the team developed a fully bespoke Transport Management System tailored specifically to their operations.

Key components of the solution included:

MoveSist™ – Digitised daily delivery planning and job management
SmartSist™ – Real-time defect reporting and workflow integration

Together, these systems replaced manual Excel tracking with a fully digital, automated process engineered for haulage operations.

Business Benefits

Implementing the RentUrApp solution delivered measurable improvements across the business:

▶ Automated Delivery Processes
MoveSist™ eliminated manual spreadsheets by centralising all delivery planning data and generating driver-ready job lists instantly.

▶ Huge Time Savings on Invoicing
Where accounts previously reconciled 13–14 pages of shipping data, they now work from a single master job sheet — dramatically speeding up invoicing.

▶ Real-Time Defect Management
SmartSist™ allows daily vehicle defect checks to be logged instantly, enabling the defect management team to take immediate action and avoid costly delays.

▶ Improved Customer Reporting
With all delivery information accessible at the press of a button, Midas can quickly share delivery data with customers, enhancing service quality.

▶ Better Compliance
Vehicle and safety reporting is more consistent and streamlined, compared with multiple spreadsheets previously used.

Results

Today, Midas runs the day-to-day planning and delivery of its business through the RentUrApp TMS. Previously-time-consuming tasks — from scheduling to reporting — now appear instantly within the system. These improvements have delivered:

• A centralised system for logistics management
• Significant time savings on administration
• Faster and more accurate delivery reporting

By replacing spreadsheets with a purpose-built TMS, Midas has improved operational efficiency and data accuracy across its business.
