EXCLUSIVELY FOR RENTAL, CONSTRUCTION AND MINING FLEETS
Crestline ensures new power systems earn their keep before fleets scale.
Most deployment failures don’t begin in hardware. They begin in assumptions — about control logic, utilisation, integration responsibility, and field readiness. What performs in pilot conditions often breaks under fleet scale.
Engagements are structured. The aim is simple: reduce stranded assets while improving utilisation.
Identify where a new category can win, and where it will quietly fail.
Define requirements that align OEMs, integrators, and fleet teams.
Design pilots with success measures that translate to procurement.
Review delivery and early performance to stop avoidable support blowouts.
Short, specific feedback from people I’ve worked with in the field.
“Craig worked with OPTHire to build capability around hybrid and renewable power systems, delivering practical training for our sales and technical teams and helping shape the functional specifications for both the solar calculator and the renewable site compound concept. His approach combines strong technical understanding with a clear grasp of how rental businesses actually operate, which made the work immediately useful for our team.”
“APS Power engaged Crestline Partners to help define the functional specification for our 60kW/120kWh BESS concept - a modular battery system aimed at temporary construction power applications. Craig helped translate the idea into a clear system architecture and highlighted the key engineering, compliance and commercial considerations early. This work gave us a clear and considered scope of what it would take to deliver this product to market, expected timeframes and overarching investment. Crestlines work was completed on time, on budget and the team went above and beyond to research and advise on key partners in production, driven by a firm mindset of quality, reliability and performance. ”
Craig works at the intersection of economics, technology and on-site operations — helping fleet operators make investment decisions that withstand scrutiny.
Experience spans hybrid and battery deployments, system architecture, functional specification, and commercial pilot development across the rental, construction and mining context.
Practical clarity for complex problems.
Crestline collaborates with specialist engineering and controls partners where required — while remaining independent in recommendations and decision framing.
If a decision needs to be defensible — commercially and technically — reach out. You’ll get a considered reply (not a sales funnel).
