Proven Success in Major Infrastructure Projects

Kennards Hire has played a crucial role in supporting some of the most significant infrastructure projects across Australia and New Zealand. A recent example demonstrates Kennards Hire’s ability to provide a full-service, turn-key solution that goes beyond equipment hire.

Case Study: Comprehensive Site Compound for Renewable Energy Project

A large-scale solar farm project in Victoria required a fully functional site compound to accommodate over 300 construction workers. Kennards Hire worked closely with the contractor to deliver a seamless, all-in-one modular facility that included offices, lunch rooms, change rooms, toilets, showers, and even prayer rooms.

Kennards Hire’s dedicated project manager oversaw every aspect of the site’s setup and ongoing maintenance, ensuring compliance, equipment availability, and rapid response to changing site needs. Some standout solutions included:

• Innovative site facilities: The compound featured a covered walkway with advanced lighting, enhancing safety and comfort for workers.
• On-call project management: A single project manager handled all compliance, inductions, and equipment requests, ensuring quick turnarounds and minimal disruptions.
• Equipment and service coordination: From cranes and transport logistics to plumbing and electrical installations, Kennards Hire managed the entire mobilisation process.
• Safety and compliance expertise: Ensuring all workers and subcontractors met Tier-One safety standards, including rigorous PPE and induction protocols.

The result is a highly efficient and well-supported workforce, leading to enhanced productivity and on-time project completion.
