FACILITATE or Electrical Infrastructure-as-a-Service delivers availability to mission critical applications on pay-per-use basis. Everything "from the grid to the chip".
The value of these infrastructures is estimated to be $30Billion p. a. globally and growing at 10% CAGR.
According to independent market research analysts “Businesses spend 70% of their IT budgets on items that just keep their systems running”. Liberating (some of) that spending for more intelligent investments should improve operators´ own outcome to their customers: better, faster, cheaper and safer services and applications.
Buying the output of the assets, instead of assets themselves, will transfer customers from being passive owners to efficient users, whilst transferring budgets from CAPEX to OPEX.
FACILITATE™ covers all critical areas of the electrical infrastructure: back-up power, power conditioning, temperature controlling, switching and transmission.
FACILITATE™ includes our power conditioning (UPSaaS) and heat extraction (COOLaaS) services, which can be purchased independently or part of the entire infrastructure service.
UPSaaS™ (power conditioning as a service) is a sensible and disruptive change.
The benefits of UPSaaS™challenge the critical power industry status quo. It is the most economically viable methodto deliver conditioned power to mission critical applications paid on a “pay as you go” basis. Our clients can forget about the following:-
-Costs of financing
-Costs of maintenance and service
-Costs of asset depreciation
-Anticipated future load growth
-And enjoy the accounting benefits of moving a significant expense from CAPEX to OPEX budgets.
COOLaaS™ is an all-inclusive service which delivers heat extraction on as-a-Service model (XaaS).
This enables operators to pay only for the output of the assets and services, rather than acquiring the equipment needed. This transition from a passive ownership to efficient usage will liberate budgets of heavy capital investments, and therefore create a more efficient working capital management environment. Customers will never assume ownership of any assets to provide cooling (representing a move from CAPEX to OPEX). Furthermore, rather than fixed monthly payments, such as leasing solutions, COOLaaS™ monthly billing is based upon a fixed rate per kWh consumed and includes all needed products, installation, maintenance, service, and spare parts.
With the new IFRS-16 accounting standards our pay-per-use (XaaS) programs can be seen as even more lucrative option
