MACNY Equipment Maintenance Consortium

MACNY is pleased to announce its new Equipment Maintenance Consortium. This is an opportunity for companies to save 10-20% on electronic equipment maintenance agreements.

 

Through the program, you replace your current maintenance agreements with a risk management/insurance product from our consortium providers. The premiums for this product will be lower than your current costs. When your equipment needs either repair or preventative maintenance, you call your local vendor to service the equipment on your schedule, but the bill is paid for by our provider. You save the administrative time and costs of billing and maintaining contracts.

 

This program may be particularly helpful to a company that has maintenance contracts on several machines. For example, do you have a maintenance contract on a fax machine, a computer server, and a time clock? Or do you have maintenance agreements on a photo copy machine, a printer,

and a card access system for your store room? Or perhaps you have medical equipment like an

ultrasound, laboratory or radiological equipment. The program may be helpful for replacing these agreements with the potential for significant savings.

 

Our provider for this program is MACNY member Brown & Brown Empire State and The REMI Group.
