You might find PoC aka PTT over cellular would fit your friend's needs at a much more economical level. The upside is you only buy user equipment, the downside is you don't have any control over the transport medium.
You can do a single site with what Hytera calls pseudo trunking, basically a single freq DMR repeater with 2 time slots/talk paths. Users are normally assigned a time slot, if group A is talking and group B is on the same slot they can't key up while the channel is busy, even if the other slot is open. Pseudo trunk dynamically lets group B use the other slot. This is a single freq trunking system.
If there are multiple repeaters at a site Hytera has XPT, extended pseudo trunking, which makes each slot in any repeater a resource available to any user so they don't have to change channels to find an open slot. Other radio mfgs have their own names for it, this was a game changer for us at Bearcom when we did large rental events.
