Marine Infrastructure Contractor

Special Terms:

60 months

Purpose:

A well-established firm operating in the marine construction space, with experience supporting a variety of infrastructure projects along the U.S. coastline and beyond. Its work includes services related to marine development, maintenance, and transportation. The company is known for managing technically challenging projects and serves both public and private clients across multiple sectors

Challenge:

The client had just been awarded a major commercial construction project with an aggressive timeline. To meet contract requirements and stay on schedule, they urgently needed to acquire a heavy-duty crane. With equipment lead times tightening and project mobilization underway, a traditional bank process would have taken too long. Speed, flexibility, and a financing partner that understood the urgency were critical.

Solution:

Alliance Funding Group stepped in with a fast, flexible equipment finance solution tailored to the client’s timeline. Because we had an existing relationship and a strong understanding of their business, we were able to move quickly—issuing a formal approval within days. We structured a 60-month fixed-term lease with flexible end-of-term options—including the ability to either purchase the crane or continue leasing on a month-to-month basis. This approach gave the client maximum control over the asset with minimal upfront cost. Funds were disbursed directly to the vendor within 5 business days, allowing the crane to be delivered and mobilized on-site in time to support the newly awarded construction project.

Impact / outcome

With financing in place, the client was able to secure and deploy the crane on-site without disrupting cash flow or delaying the project start date. The flexible lease structure allowed them to stay on budget while maintaining future options for ownership or continued use. By acting quickly, they also capitalized on a vendor discount and avoided costly project delays. Ultimately, the financing solution enabled the client to fulfill their new contract obligations on time, increase operational capacity, and position themselves for additional growth opportunities.
