Upfront savings shouldn’t cost you long-term reliability.

Low-cost power options might seem like a win, until failures, downtime, and maintenance bills start stacking up. At Vanguard, we believe performance is non-negotiable. Smarter technology choices can reduce your total cost of ownership by delivering:

🔧 Less maintenance: engineered for durability, our solutions are built to go the distance with fewer service intervals.
⏱️ More uptime: dependable power means more time on the job and less time on the bench.
⚙️ Application-ready solutions: seamless integration drives efficiency and end-user satisfaction.

When the job demands more, your power solution should deliver.

Is that great deal” really saving you money? ✏️

When it comes to commercial-grade power solutions, a low sticker price can be misleading. What looks like savings today could lead to higher costs tomorrow if the equipment isn’t built to last.

Cheap, inefficient power solutions often result in:

👨‍🔧 Frequent maintenance and repairs
👎 Costly, unplanned downtime
👷‍♂️ Reduced efficiency and lost labour

Smart investments consider the full picture. Our Vanguard solutions feature several innovations that work to help drive down TCO.

Think beyond the purchase price. Optimise for long-term value. Do the math.
Discover how to reduce your Total Cost of Ownership in our latest white paper: https://lnkd.in/e3rSH8wc

When developing power solutions, our main goal is always the same: develop the best performing, most cost-effective high quality solution on the market.

That’s why we have several innovations that are designed to:
🔧 Reduce maintenance
⏱️ Decrease downtime
🤑 Save you money

Whether you’re looking for a battery or an engine, Vanguard power solutions will lower your TCO, and make sure you get the job done.

Looking back at bauma 2025 – what a week!
Just one month ago, we wrapped up an unforgettable experience at bauma 2025 in Munich – the world’s largest trade show for construction machinery. From April 7–13, we welcomed countless visitors to our two-level, 92 m2 booth. With more than 600,000 attendees and over 600,000 m2 of exhibition space, the energy was incredible!

We were proud to see dozens of machines powered by Briggs & Stratton | Vanguard products featured across several partner booths, and to connect with customers and partners from all around the world.

💛 A heartfelt thank you to the 36 team members from 12 countries who brought this to life. Special thanks to the organisational team for the outstanding booth concept, smooth logistics, and for creating a warm and welcoming space for the entire crew and visitors as well.

bauma 2025 was truly special—here’s to the next one!

Thanks to Vima Media for capturing the spirit of our passion for power so well.

While enticing, cheap power solutions seldom lead to saved costs in the long run. In fact, inefficient power solutions can mount up future costs you might not factor in when thinking of your outlay. With smart technology choices, you can save costs through:

🔧 Less repair and maintenance - higher quality power solutions fail less and include innovations that reduce or eradicate common maintenance requirements
⏱️ Increased uptime - less failure means more productivity on the job site
⚙️ Customised solutions - can be more expensive but work more efficiently with your application, improving performance and customer experience

Lower your TCO with smart technology choices. Our latest white paper explains what you need to consider to save money long-term. 📈👉 https://lnkd.in/eBWBFW-R

Think long term. Do the math. Lower your TCO.

The time to collaborate is now. 🤝
Rental companies across Europe are all facing the same challenges with the transition to electric power:

😵‍💫 An overwhelming number of solutions to choose from
⛓️‍💥 Difficulty integrating several solutions into one fleet
💰 Mounting costs from complex and differing maintenance needs

We’ve brought together a group of leading OEMs to tackle these challenges, and we’re delighted that Jon Overman from HSS: The Hire Service Company is part of that group.

Do you consider Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) when exploring new power solutions for your equipment? 🤑 You should, and here’s why in our NEW white paper here 👉
https://lnkd.in/e3rSH8wc

Did you know, you could be saving up to 60% on oil maintenance with OilGuardTM? 👛

In the demanding world of commercial operations, every minute of uptime counts. Vanguard's Oil GuardTM System is engineered to maximise your equipment's productivity and minimise maintenance hassles.

See how much you could be saving with our OilGuardTM calculator here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eZhbptJn

Are you doing the math? ✏️

Lower purchase price seldom leads to lower TCO. Commercial grade power solutions need to be durable, long-lasting and reliable. Inefficient power solutions that fail often can quickly mount up future costs from:

🔧 Maintenance and repair
😓 Unexpected downtime
👷‍♂️ Loss of productive man hours

Are you storing your batteries correctly? 🔋

Proper battery storage matters. Keep them in a cool, dry place - ideally 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) - to prevent degradation.

✅ Avoid extreme heat & cold
✅ Store away from direct sunlight
✅ Preserve long-term performance

Smart storage means longer battery life and better reliability.

Join the team!

Don’t be fooled by low purchase prices this April Fool's day. 🤡

While enticing, cheap power solutions seldom lead to lower TCO. Inefficient power solutions that fail often can quickly mount up future costs – not only for maintenance and repair, but downtime and loss of productive man-hours also impact the bottom line.

Investing in high-performance power solutions is a strategic move, one that can save unexpected costs and lower your Total Cost of Ownership.

🔋 Have you checked your battery’s state of charge recently?

Allowing a battery to fully discharge during storage (like during winter) can cause permanent capacity loss. To maintain performance and longevity:

✅ Keep the state of charge (SOC) above 40%
✅ Check the battery periodically
✅ Recharge slightly if it drops significantly

A little maintenance now can prevent bigger issues later.

Networking with a view 🤩
Our colleagues Paul Bramhall and Mark Kerr are all set and excited to welcome UK hire companies in our dedicated space at the Coventry Building Society Arena during this years Executive Hire Show.
They are looking forward to discussing crucial topics around the energy transition and exploring how we can shape the future of rental together. 🌍⚡
Will you be there?

As we always claim: One battery, multiple applications. Thanks Stephen Avery for this short but impressive demonstration.
