A DIFFERENT. SIMPLER. BETTER APPROACH TO CUSTOMER PROBLEMS
A longstanding Quadrent customer is one of NZ’s largest telecommunications and ICT providers.
After winning a large tender for IT network infrastructure, to be delivered “as-a-Service”, (aaS) the customer needed to purchase many millions of technology assets in order to build a new network platform.
They had recently invested in core network upgrades which resulted in a shortfall in Capex required to fulfil the “as-a-Service” platform build.
Furthermore, having to pay for the network platform would mean that the aaS contract would deliver net-negative revenue upfront. In addition, the significant licencing and maintenance costs in the network platform would have to be funded by Opex, hurting its key EBITDA financial metric.
We solved the problem by using leasing under IFRS 16 to give our customer access to:
Quadrent’s contracting expertise and intimate knowledge of the application of new IFRS 16 accounting standards, enabled us to tailor and uniquely optimise the aaS network platform funding structure for our customer.
Quadrent was able to solve the challenges that our client faced, and these customer needs are continually used to inform our service and solutions so that our customers remain front and center in everything we do.
This is the Quadrent way – a different, simpler, better solution to equipment finance and asset management.
