Equipment economics is the construction industry’s subset of economics that focuses entirely on equipment acquisition, operation, maintenance and disposal. As a study, it’s easy to define but in practice hard to execute. These seemingly obvious areas of focus require access to and deep understanding of several key robust equipment operations data points that can be difficult to outline and even harder to measure – especially with differing opinions from internal project and equipment groups. But without true equipment data to accurately charge their jobs, contractors often don’t know if they are losing money on their machines or whether their projects are profitable. And losing sight of the bottom line can put contractors millions of dollars in a loss position without even knowing it.

Learning Objectives:

1: Define the metrics necessary to successfully identify the leading indicators that provide operational insight on equipment.

2: Learn methods for the equipment and operations groups to manage these insights to drive down costs.

3: Uncover a framework contractors can use to allocate equipment costs between their jobs and their owning and operating costs.
