Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean that the product becomes useless. It still has most of its original value. If the product works for your company, it is good to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any big problems with the hardware or how it fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can keep the product going for longer by using TPM.

If you don’t have a lot of extra money to spend on new hardware, you can still use your existing equipment with the help of TPM. You can upgrade when you’re ready, and you can prepare for the transition by saving up money and planning ahead.

If you are working on repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to OEM parts. This can be a problem because the quality of the part may be lower. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who are repairing your equipment are experts in their field and may be more familiar with it than in-house technicians.

You can avoid paying high prices for post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. TPM companies offer similar skill sets as OEMs but at a much lower cost. Plus, with TPM you may get more work done or a more personalized service than you would from your OEM. You also get to push back the cost of new equipment. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help delay it.

While an OEM specializes in their equipment, a TPM program can focus more on the needs of your company. A TPM program might be able to do a repair 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.
