Equipment Selection and Costing

What equipment do I need? Do I replace with like equipment or something different?
Are there other options I should be looking at?

Equipment Selection and Costing Service
Once the machine (or fleet) is identified, we work with you to prepare the specifications for issue to the dealers, assess their submisions and compile an unbiased comparison of the pros and cons of the different dealer bids.

Our analysis takes into account such factors as job match, owning and operating cost, occupational health and safety, environmental considerations, dealer support and machine suitability.

Using an advanced event-driven costing system we are able to prepare accurate shadow bids to help compare the cost of maintaining the equipment in-house or contracting out the maintenance. With access to data from major manufacturers and a database of comparative operating costs, we are in a position to provide you with impartial advice on the best machine for your business.

	“Fully implemented the recommendation — we ended up leasing 4 large pieces of mobile equipment which one year down the track very neatly matched the requirements; selected the right gear for the job.” —Chris Dempsey Works Manager—Westport Holcim New Zealand
