The equipment need

The company, which provides sound, lighting, video and live capture services, had funded all its investments from its own resources.

Its main vehicle had been out of service for several months, generating recurring rental costs of over $14,900.

Its equipment inventory no longer covered all its jobs, forcing it to sub-hire gear for about $91,700 per year.

  • Box van, 20 m³ (recent used)
  • Professional video cameras
  • Wireless microphones
  • Speakers and sound equipment
  • Additional audiovisual equipment

The support described in the project

Leaseworld arranged a single equipment lease covering a recent used 20 m³ (about 700 cu ft) box van and all the professional audiovisual equipment.

The term was set as long as possible to keep the monthly payment consistent with the pace of business.

A moderate down payment was set to preserve the company's capacity to invest.

The reported operational outcome

The company reduced its reliance on sub-hired equipment and rented vehicles, improving profitability.

Cash was preserved to support further growth.

It gained operational independence and logistical responsiveness.

Applying the experience to a new project

Use this case to identify the equipment, timing and ownership questions relevant to your own investment. The historical scope and term are specific to the project described. For a new U.S. project, identify the contracting business, installation state, supplier quote and preferred use period; available structures require a separate assessment.
