Contingency Planning can be summarized as developing a good ‘Plan B’. It does not just mean anticipating the worst disasters such as fires, floods, or tornadoes; it’s also about preparing for unexpected events and other disruptive unknowns of a smaller scale.

What if your main air supply suddenly goes down? Not only will this put a stop to your production process but it will also severely affect your revenue. A good backup plan will minimize your risk and potential losses.

That’s why it’s important to make contingency planning a normal part of your everyday business operations.

To prevent emergency situations, Rand-Air Specialty Rental works with you to create a customized contingency plan that includes all necessary equipment, accessories, access, and connection conditions needed to get your operations back to business.

In the event of an emergency, we will be there with the perfect solution in no time

We start by establishing the current situation.

Your current compressed air demand: which flow and pressure do you need? What is the required air quality to protect your processes and the quality of your end product? 

When a temporary solution is needed: How can we limit the impact on your operations? Which limitations should we consider when it comes to footprint, logistics, emissions, noise levels, available power sources... 

Sophisticated measurement techniques take the guesswork out of selecting the correctly optimized combination of rental equipment and accessories for your tailormade contingency plan.

• We then evaluate our fleet and prepare a phased plan depending on the number of rental units required for your site. 
• We can draw from the fleet on a local, national, and even international basis, and will include estimated timing on delivery of all equipment. 
• We’ll then advise the space requirements and recommend tap-in points to your system. 

Our extensive and specialized fleet has a wide range of diesel or electric-driven compressors that allow us to cover a wide flow and pressure range. These are combined with dryers, filters, and/or nitrogen generators for a total solution. In addition to compressed air solutions, we can also support with onsite power supply, special gases like nitrogen, process pumps...

As well as the logistics of delivering the correct equipment to the site, we understand the importance of environmental and safety considerations. Part of the planning process is to consult with your safety and environmental people to ensure our temporary installation complies with your requirements. For example, the installation may require lighting and fencing.

We continuously invest in optimizing our fleet with the latest technology like electric-driven compressors, energy storage modules...

When diesel-driven equipment is required, we have high standards to minimize the impact. Depending on the number of units required, around-the-clock refueling and maintenance may be required and fuel or oil spills are a potential hazard. We minimize these risks by using internal spill containment on all compressors. Additionally, we can supply external fuel tanks to reduce the frequency of refueling.
