Turnkey installation
Yes — a turnkey installation contractor takes the job from the graded pad to the keys, subcontracting the trades under one contract. It costs a coordination fee and saves you being the coordinator.
Short answer: Turnkey means one contract and one name responsible for the sequence: site prep, footers, transport and set, trim-out, utility hookups, skirting, steps and the inspections in between. The contractor hires the trades it does not have in house. What it usually does not include is the land itself — zoning, septic permit, well — and the dealer's part of the deal. Read the scope line by line, because 'turnkey' is a word, not a standard, and two turnkey quotes can cover different things.

Details to Sort
One schedule, one person to call when the electrician and the setup crew disagree about who moves the meter base, and one place where responsibility lands if an inspection fails. It does not remove the trades; it moves the coordination off your phone.
Whether footers, skirting, steps, gutters and the final grade are in or out; who pulls each permit; who pays for a failed inspection; and whether the setup licence is the contractor's own or a subcontractor's. Compare quotes by scope before you compare them by price.

Secondary Support
Use the project router first, then share details for review if you still need help organizing the project context. This does not guarantee a provider match or availability.
It includes a coordination margin the individual trades do not charge. Whether that is worth it depends on how much of the coordinating you would otherwise do yourself, and how many trades the job needs.
Some do, through their own crews or a contractor they use. The contract still has to say what is included; a dealer's 'delivered and set' is not the same as turnkey.
Under a turnkey contract, the turnkey contractor — that is the point of the arrangement. Make sure the contract says so.
