The traditional approach of spending capital on investing in AV systems may not work in today’s fast-paced technology world. As with “new normal” work style changes and changing needs, technology is constantly evolving and invested systems can quickly lose their value.
Generally, it takes time for a capital-invested AV system to be able to recover from the profits it brings. There is also the problem that the cost-effectiveness of AV equipment is difficult to understand.
Depending on the maintenance status of the system after installation, there is a risk of financial loss if it becomes necessary to make new capital investment without recovery.
The introduction with OpEx has tax advantages. Due to the tax system, operating expenses, etc. included in OpEx can be deducted from tax, while CapEx is an expense to raise the asset value of the company, so it is subject to property tax.
The AV system introduced by CapEx is often depreciated over 5 years, and the system deteriorates and becomes obsolete without waiting for the depreciation to be completed. System deployments at OpEx are typically automatically updated every 3-5 years, and continuous service and support to ensure system reliability keeps innovative technology up-to-date. This approach frees up capital for capital investment and allows you to invest in people, R & D or marketing.
Every hardware causes failures and troubles. General annual contract maintenance support after system installation is similar to insurance, and it costs a lot of money annually to get peace of mind, and in many cases, we do not receive support commensurate with actual operation. On the other hand, if you request ad hoc support for each trouble without signing an annual contract, you will have to get an estimate each time, and you will not be able to respond quickly, and you will not be able to read the annual cost.
Our managed service proposes the required support time based on the flexible service level that meets the customer’s needs according to the system scale, purchases it in advance, and deducts the time required for each operation from the contract time. This eliminates the need for high annual support contracts, and saves a lot of money. In addition, the contracted time can be used not only for urgent troubleshooting, but also for consultation, maintenance, management, and operation of the system.
