With equipment hire, the client takes the pumps, wellpoint systems or treatment units, on dry hire or with operators, and generally keeps responsibility for the design and day-to-day running, with whatever technical support the hire agreement includes. With turnkey delivery, one contractor carries the whole scope: investigation, design, equipment, installation, operation and close-out. ACTION provides both. Turnkey tends to suit scopes where ground conditions, a tight programme, a live network or a shutdown window make performance critical. Hire tends to suit contractors with their own expertise who need maintained equipment ready to mobilise.
