Third-Party Hardware Maintenance: What Is It?

Flux IT offers independent, vendor-neutral support for your IT hardware through Third-Party Maintenance, which eliminates the need for original manufacturer contracts. After standard warranty periods and OEM EOSL dates, we continue to support your data centre infrastructure, providing you with:

  • Durability and ongoing assistance
  • Performance and asset value optimisation
  • Little to no interference with regular business operations
  • comfort in knowing that experts are covering the hardware

Our third-party maintenance is tailored to your company’s needs and equipment roadmap, unlike OEM contracts, which are limited by strict service lifecycles.

Our team has extensive experience in dealing with a variety of hardware types, including servers, storage, and networking hardware. We work closely with manufacturers such as HP, HPE, Cisco, Dell, IBM, Juniper, EMC, Fujitsu, NetApp, and many more.

Let’s get started—get in touch for a happy quote. Tell us your requirements via the quick online form.

Why Partner With Flux IT Hardware for TPM?

When compared to OEM support, third-party maintenance can drastically cut maintenance costs, frequently saving 50–70% or more. This frees up funds for strategic initiatives rather than vendor lock-in.

Flux IT Hardware can combine support under a single contract, streamlining support management and escalation routes, regardless of whether you operate Cisco, Dell, HPE, IBM, Juniper, or mixed OEM fleets.

We provide customised service level agreements which our clients can select based on their needs for emergency response and operational support, and their financial limitations.

Our team provides 24-hour service through remote assistance, which includes phone, email and portal support and onsite engineering who will respond to emergencies.

Our services assist you in scheduling maintenance activities according to actual asset value, which enables you to extend asset life while postponing capital expenditures and synchronising equipment renewal schedules with your organisational objectives.

How TPM Works

Flux IT Hardware’s Third-Party Maintenance combines:

  • Remote Support: Troubleshooting, diagnosis and guidance without waiting for vendor escalation.

  • On-Site Service: When physical intervention is needed, qualified engineers attend your site to perform break-fix, parts swap or preventive servicing.

  • Parts Management: Access to a broad inventory of spare parts to minimise downtime.

  • Proactive Care: Where possible, we detect and resolve issues before they become failures.

Our approach ensures your infrastructure stays up, your teams stay productive, and your IT budget stays focused on innovation, not legacy replacement costs.

Benefits of Flux IT Third-Party Maintenance

✅ Extend Your Hardware Life
Maximise ROI by supporting equipment well past the typical OEM service dates.

✅ Reduce Total Cost of Ownership
Lower maintenance fees compared with OEM contracts and reduce unplanned CapEx.

✅ Simplify Support Across Vendors
One provider, one SLA, one point of contact for multi-brand environments.

✅ Minimise Disruption
Rapid response, proactive monitoring, and flexible escalation paths keep systems online.

Frequently Asked Questions

Flux IT provides third-party maintenance for core data centre and enterprise infrastructure, including switches, routers, firewalls, wireless controllers, servers, storage arrays, and chassis components such as power supplies, fans, supervisors and line cards. We support multi-vendor estates and legacy platforms that are EOS, EOSL or no longer commercially supported by the OEM.

Yes. Data centres, colocation providers and enterprise IT teams use TPM to keep stable platforms running while planning refresh cycles. Flux IT builds device-criticality SLAs (for example 24×7×4 or 24×7×NBD) aligned to your high-availability design, redundancy model, spares strategy and maintenance windows.

When OEM support ends, manufacturers often stop providing parts and escalation. Flux IT supports post-EOSL environments through independent break-fix support, access to tested spare parts, and practical engineering expertise to keep systems stable while you plan refresh or migration on your own timeline.

Yes. Flux IT consolidates multi-vendor support under one contract with standardised SLAs, escalation paths and reporting. This simplifies support management, reduces administrative overhead and provides a single point of contact across your entire network and data centre estate.

Flux IT offers flexible SLA models including 24×7×4 for business-critical core and edge infrastructure, 24×7×NBD for resilient layers, and 8×5×NBD for non-critical systems. SLAs can be tailored per site, per rack, or per device role such as core, aggregation or access.

Flux IT can replace OEM support where appropriate, or deliver a hybrid model where only a small subset of assets remains on OEM contracts while the wider estate is supported via TPM. Where procurement must remain within official channels, Flux IT can also support through authorised channel partners.

Yes. Flux IT can apply a RAG risk model based on EOS or EOSL proximity, current support status, spares availability, lead times, device criticality and resilience. Red indicates high operational risk, Amber indicates manageable risk with mitigation, and Green indicates low operational risk.

Yes. Flux IT can supply like-for-like or current-generation replacement hardware through independent supply routes to reduce cost and lead time. Where OEM procurement is mandatory, we can also support you via authorised channel partners.

Yes. For data centres and multi-site enterprises, Flux IT can design a spares holding strategy aligned to device role and business impact. This helps reduce MTTR and protects high-availability environments during hardware failures.

Yes. Flux IT can purchase surplus or decommissioned servers, network and data centre equipment as part of refresh or consolidation projects. This helps offset upgrade costs and supports sustainable, circular IT practices.

Yes. Flux IT supports multi-site estates across the UK and beyond. We structure coverage by site role (data centre, HQ, edge or branch) while maintaining a single contract, consistent SLAs and unified reporting.

Provide an asset list including SKU, location, device role and required SLA, and Flux IT can quickly scope a tailored TPM proposal covering coverage scope, response times, spares strategy and commercial options, including phased onboarding for large estates.
