Capital Project Equipment Strategy
What If Your Biggest Cost Reduction Opportunity Is Already On Your Project?
Equipment can represent 15–25% of your total project cost on heavy civil and capital projects. Most owners treat it as a fixed cost. It isn't.
Hypothetical $150M Project

Based on industry utilization benchmarks and typical markup structures. Equipment at 25% of total project cost.
How Equip U Changes the Math
One Partner for Everything
Sourcing, support, and accountability — under one roof. No more finger-pointing between vendors when things go wrong on site.
85–90% Fleet Utilization
When each sub sources their own fleet, utilization runs 50% or less. A shared, coordinated fleet changes that math immediately.
No Markup Stacking
Sub and GC markup layers — typically 10–25% each — eliminated. One source, transparent pricing, from project inception.
Let's talk about your next project.
The best time to bring Equip U to the table is before the equipment plan is set — not after the project is already in motion.
