IT renting for manufacturing and production
In manufacturing, IT is no longer just administrative. Production terminals, barcode reading, MES and sensors need equipment that withstands a factory environment and support that does not leave a line standing still. Financing follows the factory's investment cycles, which rarely match the office's.
- Shop floor and office in the same contract
- 60 months, aligned with the factory investment
- Support sized for lines in production
Two fleets with opposite needs
The office needs light laptops and renewal every three years. The shop floor needs rugged terminals, protected against dust and humidity, that stay in the same place for five years. Treating both fleets with the same policy is the classic mistake: either you buy office equipment that does not survive the factory, or you pay for industrial equipment for people sitting at a desk.
In the contract, this is solved with different profiles and different terms within the same deal.
- Industrial terminals and panels for production lines
- Barcode readers and label printers
- Industrial network and access points for a factory environment
- Servers and infrastructure for MES and ERP
- Office and engineering workstations
IT investment within larger projects
In a new line or an expansion, the IT component is usually one of the last chapters of the budget and the first to be cut when the project overruns. Financing it separately protects it: it leaves the project's investment envelope and moves to operating costs, without competing with the main machine.
Frequently asked questions
Can we align the term with the financing of the production line?
Yes, and it makes sense: 60-month terms bring the IT cycle closer to the cycle of the production equipment, and avoid having to renew IT halfway through the life of the line.
How do you make sure a line does not stop because a terminal fails?
With fast-response on-site warranty and, for truly critical workstations, a spare unit included in the contract. A machine sitting on a shelf is always cheaper than a line standing still.

Complete workstation renting
It is the fastest-growing format and the one that best reflects the real cost of IT: instead of financing machines, you contract a cost per workstation per month that includes everything an employee needs to work.
