Brokerage

In the life of every small business there comes a day when it faces these two questions:

a) How do we get the new stuff?

What is our strategy in acquiring new technology? Should we be top-notch in technology or should we be conservative and try to get maximum from what we already have? Should we buy, lease or finance our new equipment? Do we really need it? What is the acquisition cost? What is inaction cost? Should we deal with single reseller or multi-source?

How much????

b) What should we do with our old stuff?

Mid size businesses usually run their own in-house purchasing department, for smaller businesses Ingrix offers Brokerage services, namely Assets Disposal and Acquisition Counseling.
