Heavy equipment plays an important role in construction, industrial operations, power generation, material handling, and other demanding applications. However, not every project requires a business to commit to owning the equipment it needs long-term. When equipment is required for a specific period, rental can provide access to the right machinery without the need for a long-term capital commitment.
Allied Rental Services Limited (ARSL) operates its business around this rental approach, managing a fleet that includes Power Generation Equipment, Material Handling Equipment, and Construction-related Machinery. Its rental solutions are designed to support the changing requirements of businesses while providing access to Caterpillar equipment and other specialized solutions.
A Rental Model Designed Around Project Needs
Equipment requirements can vary from one project to another. A business may need construction machinery for one stage of work, power generation equipment for another, or cranes and material-handling equipment for a specific application. Maintaining every type of equipment in-house may not always be practical.
ARSL’s rental model focuses on providing equipment for the period it is required. Under its Ijarah-based business model, equipment can be rented for periods ranging from days and weeks to months. This approach is primarily designed to meet short- to medium-term equipment requirements without requiring customers to make a capital commitment for the equipment.
Access to Different Types of Equipment
One of the important parts of the rental approach is having access to equipment suited to different requirements. ARSL provides a range of rental solutions that include Power Generation Equipment, Lighting Towers, Construction Machines, Power House O&M, Load Banks, and Cranes.
Its Power Generation Equipment includes Caterpillar gas and diesel generators ranging from 20 to 2450 kVA. These generators are available for daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly rental, with pricing based on the specific requirements of the customer. This provides flexibility when power requirements are connected to a particular project or operating period.
For construction and earthmoving applications, ARSL offers Caterpillar machines that are available for a broad range of industries and applications. Its crane solutions also cover both on-road and off-road work, combining the road ability of truck-mounted cranes with the maneuverability of rough-terrain cranes.
Maintenance as Part of the Rental Approach
Access to equipment is only one part of a rental solution. Equipment readiness and maintenance also form an important part of ARSL’s model.
According to ARSL, the costs related to installation, operation, and maintenance of rented equipment, except fuel, are borne by the Modaraba. After the rental period, equipment returns to the Modaraba for re-servicing so that it can be prepared for its next deployment.
ARSL also highlights that its rental fleet is maintained by trained mechanics before each rental. This focus on maintenance supports the company’s aim of providing reliable equipment for customers and reducing concerns related to maintaining a machine independently.
A Practical Alternative to Long-Term Equipment Commitment
The rental approach is particularly relevant when equipment is required for a defined period rather than as a permanent part of a business’s fleet. Instead of making a long-term commitment, customers can use equipment according to their project requirements.
ARSL’s model is built around this principle. Its focus on short- to medium-term needs allows businesses to access power generation, earthmoving, material handling, lifting, and other rental solutions according to their requirements.
The company’s rental solutions also allow customers to select equipment according to the application rather than depending on one type of machinery for different requirements. This supports ARSL’s vision of providing innovative and reliable Power Generation, Earth Moving, and Material Handling Equipment Rental solutions.
