Frost & Sullivan conducts survey on test-equipment rental, seeks your input

Aug. 26, 2015

Organizations across industries including aerospace and defense, communications, automotive, and industrial electronics have been more open to complement their test strategy with rental and leasing services as opposed to solely rely on purchasing new test-and-measurement equipment, according to Jessy Cavazos, Industry Director, Test & Measurement, at Frost & Sullivan.

Key factors driving organizations to rent/lease electronic test equipment include term requirement length, economic uncertainty, technology evolution, and lower cost of ownership, she notes, adding that in North America, key service providers include Electro Rent Corp., TRS RenTelco, Continental Resources, Microlease, and Test Equity. Key competitive factors include inventory availability with a lineup of popular brands, product quality, delivery time, and price.

Cavazos will elaborate on the test-and-measurement equipment rental market in an upcoming print edition of EE-Evaluation Engineering.

Meanwhile, Frost & Sullivan is conducting a customer survey on rental and leasing services for test-and-measurement equipment, and Cavazos welcomes your inputs.

“Consider participating in this survey to help identify the best providers of such services in the U.S. and provide them feedback to improve their offerings to the market,” she writes. “The survey takes less than one minute to complete and the identity of the respondents is confidential. The first 100 respondents will receive a free Redbox movie rental as a token of our appreciation for their time and insights.”
