Supporting Education Through Innovative Leasing Solutions

Central to our vision of contributing to a better future is supporting the education sector. We recognise education as a catalyst for change, proven to foster the highest levels of personal empowerment, growth, and inclusion.

Digital Equity and Learning

In today's digitally-driven world, access to technology is a necessity for educational equity. Quadrent plays a crucial role in bridging the digital divide through our innovative leasing solutions. As major lessors of technology, we are uniquely positioned to ensure that schools and educational institutions have access to the latest tools and devices.

Additionally, our Quadrent Green Lease initiative not only facilitates access but also ensures sustainability by responsibly managing end-of-lease devices within a secure, environmentally conscious framework.

Quadrent enables customers to preserve critical cash and avoid large upfront capital expenditure payments. This allows you to invest capital into core business priorities such as your teachers and buildings.

Why Quadrent is uniquely suited to Education

We deliver flexible, simple solutions for schools to acquire the latest technology. Unlike a bank or traditional finance broker, Quadrent invests in the equipment it leases, which helps lower the lease payments for the school. We also don’t require upfront deposits, charge monthly fees or insist on a balloon payment at the end of the lease.

End of term flexibility, options and transparency

There are no surprises at the end of the lease term. We maintain regular dialogue with you to assist in determining what best suits your needs - whether it's keeping, returning, or refreshing the equipment.

Should you choose to return the equipment, Quadrent adopts a pragmatic approach with no charges for reasonable wear and tear or missing peripherals.

Protecting your school from technology obsolescence

Having the latest technology is paramount to providing the very best learning environment.

Through a lease arrangement, we ensure you can upgrade the technology as you need to, either during or before the end of the initial term.

Avoid disposal issues and unnecessary e-waste costs

Quadrent ensures that all returned equipment will be managed in accordance with our “sustainability hierarchy”, being: repurpose, refurbish, recycle, responsibly dispose. This means means we can limit emissions, minimise e-waste, and maximise positive social and environmental outcomes.

Benefits of Leasing Equipment With Quadrent

Increased buying power

We lease to some of the largest and most well-known companies throughout Australasia, and are completely independent to the equipment we supply. Therefore, you choose your preferred resellers, and we will work with them.

Structure your budgets

By partnering with Quadrent, you can establish a sufficient line of credit that can be utilised at any time for the equipment you need throughout the year, enabling efficient asset management.

Assistance at end of term

We manage this process for you whilst maintaining data security and environmental obligations. Furthermore, any costs associated with asset wiping, disposal or recycling are bundled into the lease payments.

Accessing locked up capital

Schools that wish to access unused capital currently tied up in assets purchased with capital expenditures (capex) can sell these assets to Quadrent and lease them back. This arrangement provides cash for other projects.

Boosting digital equity in schools

We have a strong focus on sustainability and supporting schools to boost digital inclusion for all students. Our Quadrent Green Lease initiative, is aimed at improving digital inclusion and reducing e-waste.

Our client references speak for themselves

As they say, let your clients do the talking. We are proud of our work and are happy to provide references to make you feel comfortable.
