Lenovo Service Provider Program

Get ahead in a
services-oriented world
Lenovo recognises your need to tackle service delivery challenges such as cash flow, deferred
profit, capital expense and access to credit, whilst at the same time investing in infrastructure and
service delivery capabilities without an immediate return.

The Lenovo Service Provider Program (LSPP) can help you grow business with existing customers
and on-board new ones, quickly, securely and cost-effectively.

Pay less, pay later, or pay as you grow
• Buy from your distributor with competitive pricing
  Establish a relationship with a distributor of your choice. Enjoy highly competitive pricing
  based on a pre-approved framework.

• Access development funds
  Accelerate your time-to-revenue and further invest into your company’s growth with quarterly
  business development rebate.

• Buy now, pay later
  Acquire increased capacity and performance for your data centre now. Defer payment on
  hardware for up to 120 days, as a credit-qualified service provider.

• Share risk with consumption-based pricing
  Credit-qualified service providers can improve cash-flow with a shared-risk offering that allows
  payments to mirror usage, improving cash-flow with no capital expenditure required.

Couple the above with co-marketing funding offered in partnership with Intel that pays up to
50% cost of your server-focused End User marketing, and you will see how Lenovo has become
not only the supplier of the best servers in the market3, but is also the most supportive of your
business in other exciting ways!

LSPP is available in selected EMEA countries. Participation is subject to qualifying conditions.
