When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the equipment is not suddenly useless. It still has value and can be used if it works for your company. As long as there aren’t any glaring issues with the hardware or problems with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can stretch your initial investment and keep the product working longer with TPM.

If your company doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on upgrades, you can still use your existing hardware with the help of TPM. You can choose to upgrade when you’re ready,

If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the original parts. This can be a problem because the replacements may not be trustworthy. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that work with your equipment. Additionally, the technicians who perform the repairs will be experts in this area and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.

You can save money by working with a TPM company instead of going with the more expensive OEM services. TPM companies have similar skills, but they charge much less. In addition, the work that a TPM company does may be more extensive and personal than what your OEM offers. You can also push back the cost of new equipment by working with a TPM company. Although you will still need to upgrade at some point, using a TPM company can help delay that expense.

While an OEM specializes in their equipment, TPM programs can focus more on the needs of your company. They might be able to repair your equipment in a way that creates as little downtime as possible or offer more encompassing services that can provide a better deal. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with elements of OEM and TPM support if that’s what fits your business.
