Move from ‘leasing’ to ‘capital purchase’ model for desktop devices

Following a recent review of the available purchase options for desktop devices, it is beneficial for QMUL to move from a ‘leased’ to ‘capital purchase’ model for all new desktop device purchases.

This is mainly due to the leasing option only being cost effective when considering a 3 year term or cycle, however with a large amount of our estate moving into its 4th or 5th year, it is far more worthwhile to capital purchase outright. 

What does this mean for me?

  • We will no longer be offering the option to lease new desktop devices (only purchase outright).
  • All previously leased devices on a 3 year contract will be extended for 1 year and then purchased outright (If any devices were purchased directly by a department outside of IT we will extend on your behalf and then purchase outright).
  • ITS will own and bear the cost for the primary work device and one standard monitor, UK keyboard and mouse for each FTE member of staff where a device is required and it is not appropriate to share. Any further devices will be charged to the relevant department or school.
  • IT Services will not routinely replace a device unless it is no longer fit for purpose or beyond economical repair.

Please do contact your FRM or the IT Service Desk should you have any questions regarding the change.
