IDEACONCEPT
Equipment rental

Working with IDEACONCEPT means:

Build your own quote in the portal, at posted prices, on real availability. No callback to wait for, no contract to negotiate.

Our approach

One need, one quote, gear that is ready.

Everyone rents equipment. What changes from one supplier to the next is the state of the inventory and the way it is prepared. We check real availability, we test every piece before it ships, and we answer during the rental.

We start with what you want people to feel, not with an equipment list. Design comes first ; gear is only how we deliver it.

  • Concept before quote
  • Art direction involved
  • Proposals, not a catalogue
  • Set and lighting designed together
  • Built for your venue, not from a template
  • An outside eye on your project

How we work
  1. 01Your requestDates, venue, what you need to do. An equipment list if you have one, otherwise we build it with you.
  2. 02Real availabilityChecked against the inventory, not a catalogue. If a piece is already booked, we say so right away and offer the equivalent.
  3. 03Detailed quoteItem by item, with transport and labour where they apply. No catch-all line at the bottom of the page.
  4. 04Shop preparationEvery piece is assembled, tested and packed before it leaves. Cables and spares go with it.
  5. 05Delivery or pickupAt the counter, or delivered to your site at the agreed time. We unload where you need it, not at the curb.
  6. 06Installation, if you want itYou operate it yourself, or our crew sets up and runs it. Both options exist, and the quote says which one you took.
  7. 07Support during the rentalReachable day and night. A piece that fails gets replaced, not debated.
  8. 08Return and inspectionCondition is checked with you on return. What comes back intact is not billed, what is broken is discussed in front of the piece.

Equipment rental

Three formulas, all spelled out in advance.

No grey zone on what is included. The inventory and the crew are the same in all three cases.

Rental plans

Nothing to sign. Your level follows what you do with us.

The price is the same for everyone: seven rental days at half the market price, across the whole inventory. What changes with volume is what we put around it — pre-production included, a monthly credit, a store discount for your staff. No contract to sign: your level follows your rentals and is recalculated continuously.

Three days is a load-in, an event and a load-out back to back. We give seven. And the 50% is not a promotion: it is the price, for everyone, across the whole inventory.

No contract to sign : your level is reviewed continuously from your rentals over the last twelve months, and you are notified before any change. The pre-production allowance equals 5% of your annual rentals and applies per project, up to the cap shown ; beyond that it is billed at the rate agreed in advance. The monthly credit is posted to your account and applies to your next invoices. * Conditions apply on the store depending on the catalogue and available products.

Case study

Rental projects get documented as we go, once the client signs off. In the meantime, all our work is online — and we are glad to walk you through a project comparable to yours.

Our role

Audiovisual supplier. Not event planner.

We do not plan your event : we supply the equipment, the drawings and the crews. And beyond the equipment, you work with a team that fits into your way of doing things and treats your success as its first objective.
