Siemens launches leaseback programme for security end users

The company already boasts a strong track record of providing customised direct rental packages to a large number of blue chip clients in the retail, property and transport arenas which overcome the problems experienced by many security managers when trying to raise a lump sum of capital and releasing funding for reinvestment. The packages also ensure regular upgrades with state-of-the-art security systems and fixed annual costs, which makes budgeting easier. More importantly, perhaps, the Capital Release initiative can save the client up to 30% over the contract period in comparison with outright ownership.

Capital Release should appeal to security professionals in the retail arena as they purchase and manage a plethora of systems, but also face a unique set of problems. They are keen to use technology in the management of shrinkage, staff theft and attempted fraud. The Capital Release programme will enable security managers to steadily upgrade their equipment, and therefore keep pace with new developments.
