Flexible Equipment Leasing for a Road Construction Project

Client Background

A road construction contractor in Southeast Asia was awarded a 3-year highway expansion project, requiring a dynamic fleet of equipment (excavators, graders, rollers, pavers) that would change as the project progressed. The client wanted to avoid large upfront capital expenditure.

Challenge

• Access a full fleet of equipment without $3M+ upfront purchase costs
• Flexibly adjust equipment types and quantities as construction phases changed
• Ensure 100% equipment reliability to meet tight project deadlines
• Eliminate the hassle of equipment maintenance and resale post-project

Mechabro Solution

We designed a customized project-based leasing program:

1. Provided a full fleet of 22 pieces of well-maintained, pre-inspected construction equipment
2. Implemented a dynamic adjustment plan, swapping equipment (e.g., replacing excavators with pavers) as construction phases shifted
3. Included all maintenance, repair, and insurance costs in the lease agreement, with on-site service teams
4. Offered a seamless end-of-lease process, with no residual value risk for the client

Results

• 85% reduction in initial capital expenditure, freeing up $2.7M for the client’s core business
• 100% on-time project delivery, with zero downtime caused by equipment issues
• 28% lower total cost of ownership vs. purchasing and reselling equipment
• Client renewed the lease for 2 subsequent highway projects, becoming a long-term strategic partner
