Global Learning for Operational Leaders
Introduction
Course overview
Construction, industrial, energy, events and logistics operations depend heavily on hired equipment, from cranes and excavators to generators, access platforms and specialist tools. Hire agreements determine who is responsible for operation, maintenance, damage, loss, insurance and downtime, and misunderstandings about these terms often lead to unexpected costs and disputes.
This Equipment Hire and Plant Rental Agreements training course explains the commercial and contractual issues in hiring equipment. Participants learn about bare and operated hire, standard industry hire terms, hire periods and charges, delivery and off-hire procedures, maintenance and breakdown responsibilities, damage and loss liability, insurance, safety and operator competence, and how to manage hire fleets and costs.
The course is relevant to both hirers and hire companies.
