While asset recovery, resource recovery, or investment recovery are terms the process manufacturing industry understands, Federal Equipment Company’s Resource Recovery program is much more than merely extracting any possible value from surplus equipment.

Instead, we look at asset recovery through the lens of asset and capital investment management, helping our partners to maximize their capital investments and, when needed, serve as on-call sourcing agents to quickly fulfill equipment needs—even emergency needs.

Why Participate in Federal Equipment Company’s
Resource Recovery Program?

Cost

Capital Equipment—Lower Costs, Maximize Investment

Redeploying equipment, buying used industrial equipment, and extracting maximum value from unneeded equipment is the foundation of asset recovery and lowers overall capital equipment costs.

Sustainability

Sustainable Manufacturing

Redeploying equipment within your organization or selling unneeded equipment to other manufacturers contributes to sustainability and zero-carbon objectives. Procuring used equipment whenever possible also contributes to sustainable manufacturing. All of these activities are key components of the circular economy.

Value

Extracting Unexpected Value

Some equipment (e.g., very old, damaged equipment) simply has no value other than the scrap metal value and we advise accordingly when this is the case.

However, seemingly worthless equipment may be worth more than meets the eye. The Federal Equipment Company Resource Recovery Program explores the market for opportunities.

On-Call team

On-Call Equipment and Parts Sourcing Team

Your Federal Equipment Company Resource Recovery team is also a valuable resource to source used manufacturing parts and equipment needed for your facilities to lower capital equipment investment costs or secure parts and equipment in short supply due to interrupted supply chains. Pulling from the inventory in our warehouses or tapping our extensive network, our team will find the equipment or parts you need.

How Does the Federal Equipment Company’s
Resource Recovery Program Work?

Our Resource Recovery program combines nearly 70 years of Federal Equipment Company’s experience and expertise to form a comprehensive capital equipment management program that includes:

Inventory, Valuation and Appraisal

Equipment Inventory, Valuation & Appraisal

Thorough inventory services, valuation, and appraisal are the first steps in effective asset recovery services.

  • Compile an asset recovery inventory and capture all pertinent information, including critical specs and photographs.
  • Provide valuation and certified appraisals to chart the best course of action—redeployment, sell, auction, or scrap.

Equipment Redeployment

Federal Equipment Company’s Resource Recovery program is designed with the needs of Fortune 500 companies in mind. Many large companies have dozens of manufacturing sites and tens of thousands of team members, making it challenging to match surplus equipment at one plant with the equipment acquisition needs of another. However, equipment redeployment saves 85% or more compared to the purchase price of new equipment.

Federal Equipment Company coordinates industrial recovery services across the organization.

Surplus Equipment Logistics Management

To easily allow potential buyer inspections, and to get idle equipment out of the way, it often works best to remove surplus equipment and store it in a Federal Equipment Company warehouse.

We remove equipment with our team or in partnership with site-approved contractors.
