Stretch Your Retail IT Budget

In the fast-moving world of retail, staying competitive means investing in customer experience, digital storefronts, and supply chain efficiency. But constantly replacing servers, storage, and networking equipment drains capital that could be used to improve store operations or enhance online platforms.

That’s where third-party maintenance (TPM) comes in.

Rather than being locked into the OEM’s expensive upgrade cycle, retailers can rely on TPM providers to support existing IT hardware well beyond its “end-of-life” date. This approach can extend the life of your tech by 3–5 years, cutting CapEx and reducing e-waste.

Here’s how Third-Party Maintenance helps your retail business:

• Cost Control: Save up to 70% on maintenance compared to OEM support.

• Flexibility: Customize your support plan—no more one-size-fits-all contracts.

• Reliability: TPM providers deliver SLAs that often match or exceed OEM standards.

And when these savings are multiplied across dozens or even hundreds of store locations, the financial impact becomes substantial—freeing up budget that can be reinvested in growth, innovation, and customer experience.

In a world where uptime and customer satisfaction are everything, third-party maintenance keeps your tech running—and your budget in check.
