The industry is renowned for rapid technological advancement and rapid new product enhancement. Technological break-through might be good for the industry but they can be bad news for your business. Especially when that piece of equipment you thought was an up-to-date performer turns out to be past the sell-by date. It is also evident that the product pricing falls as a result of enhancements. Thus when upgrading either your software or power and perhaps memory, obsolescence becomes a quicker cycle. The change forces redundant equipment which generally has a value on your books that needs writing off.

Investment in terms of outright purchase of Computers or Test Equipment for short-term projects is expensive. Rental allows you to adopt a flexible approach and plan the period of requirement at a fraction of the cost.

Our rental rates include maintenance. Most electronic equipment will need maintaining at some stage of its life and invariably replacement parts outweigh the cost of repair. The cost of ownership when the manufacturer’s warranty period expires increases and when large numbers of units are concerned there is a substantial additional cost of supporting and the management overhead of downtime.

In accounting terms renting equipment is different to outright purchase. When renting, the costs can be charged directly against profit for taxation purposes. Outright purchase means capital allowances of only 25 percent a year can be claimed. Rental equipment is off balance sheet.

The long-term requirements and capabilities of computer or electronic equipment must be analysed before purchase. It is important that the product is right for the job. This not always easy to do, especially when these requirements can change. Rental enables evaluation before purchase and prevent you making the wrong decision.

Outright purchases mean a large capital outlay. Money spent could be spread at fractional payments over a longer period. This frees cash that could be used for investment in other areas.

Our inventory coupled with fast, efficient despatch facilities means next day delivery to most part of the UK and timed delivery to European destinations is assured. Our speed off the blocks means you’re up and running that much quicker.
