How can the range of HP Care Pack services increase your margin and Customer Satisfaction?
Increase both your margin and customer satisfaction by providing services over and above the product warranty, to meet their unique business needs by giving you the ability to:
- Increase the warranty coverage – up to 24 hours a day, 365 days a year on most products
- Extend the warranty to 4 or 5 years
- Shorten the response time for an engineer to be on site in the event of equipment failure to 8, 4 or even 2 hours! Shorten the time to repair - for example committed fix times of 6 hours from the time of logging a service call
- Have the equipment installed by HP, the leading services organisation in Australia.
- Have calls logged with an Australian based Call Centre
And finally…
- Support your customer’s software service requirements for most common applications and operating systems
Note: some conditions may apply depending on location and equipment type

- Parts and labor
