Managed Services are delivered around new technology offering future savings.

However, the set up costs can be high and need to be paid and accounted for.

Using the service charges, AFM Solutions can demonstrate how you can spread the costs of the technology over the period of your Managed Services Contract, .

The benefits are:

• a single contract and a single point of contact between supplier and customer

• repayments profiled to annual budgets

• procurement rules compliance - contract remains with the supplier

Managed service contracts in the energy, healthcare, IT and HR Rewards & Benefits can all be engineered to allow the customer to spread the up-front costs throughout the life of the contract, meaning:

• transaction - including funding - is "executory" and therefore off balance sheet

• supplier still responsible for service and KPIs

• a complete funded service solution
