Flexible Equipment Options
Choose an Approach That Fits
How You Want to Operate
Different organisations prefer to structure their equipment in different ways.
Some want shorter-term agreements.
Others prefer longer-term cost planning.
Some choose to own their equipment outright.
At Orchard, we support rental, leasing and purchase options - helping you choose the approach that best fits your organisation.
Orchard's Rental
A shorter-term, more direct agreement without the need for external finance providers.
Rental is often suited to organisations that:
-
Prefer shorter contract terms
-
Want to avoid leasing companies
-
Value a more straightforward, flexible arrangement
-
Need to adapt as requirements change
This approach provides access to reliable equipment, with more control over how long you commit.
Purchase
Full ownership of the equipment from the outset.
Purchase is often preferred by organisations that:
-
Want to own their equipment outright
-
Prefer a one-time investment
-
Have internal budgets available
-
Plan to use the equipment long-term
This offers full control, without ongoing finance commitments.
Leasing
A longer-term, structured agreement through a finance provider.
Leasing is typically chosen by organisations that:
-
Prefer fixed, predictable monthly costs
-
Are comfortable with longer-term agreements
-
Want to spread costs over time
-
Align equipment with longer-term planning
This approach provides stability and consistency over the life of the agreement.
Service & Support Agreements
Alongside how equipment is supplied, most organisations choose to include a service agreement.
This typically operates on a cost-per-copy (CPC) basis and can include:
-
Ongoing maintenance and servicing
-
Toner and consumables
-
Breakdown response and repairs
-
Remote monitoring and support
This helps create:
-
predictable running costs
-
reduced admin
-
reliable day-to-day operation
Service agreements can be structured to work alongside rental, leasing or purchased equipment.
Bringing It Together
The right setup is not just about how equipment is acquired - but how it is supported over time.
We help you put both elements together:
-
the right equipment structure
-
the right service model
So your environment remains reliable, manageable and aligned with how your organisation operates.
