Both variants are correct.
La empresa compró nuevo equipo emphasizes equipo.
La empresa compró equipo nuevo emphasizes nuevo.

I honestly think it is the last one, but not sure though. I'm currently learning spanish so I'm not fluent.

The company purchased new equipment.
La empresa compró equipamiento (if the equipment is a type of tool, such as medical equipment) o equipo (applies to other types of equipment such as furnishings [camping equipment] and apparatuses).
