The equipment need
The SME was to acquire a production machine representing an investment of between $57,300–$115,000before tax.
The payment of this sum would have weighed directly on his need for working capital.
The manager wanted the cost of the machine to be allocated over its operating life rather than borne in one time.
- Production machine
- Associated tools and peripherals
- On-site installation and settings
- Operator training
The support described in the project
We have put in place a leasing on the duty-free value of the equipment.
The funding structure has integrated the tools, on-site installation and training of operators into all the costs financed.
The dossier was presented to several financial partners in order to select the proposal most suited to the company's profile.
A purchase option at the end of the contract has been provided to allow the company to retain the machine.
The reported operational outcome
The machine was put into operation without any cash from the company.
Rental payments are covered by the additional production generated by the new equipment.
The SME's banking line remained intact for its operating needs.
