- Fortran
is a direct leasing firm (not a broker) who uses its
own funding capability (equity investing) to transact
business for our clients on a confidential and professional
level with very competitive rates and structures. The
company takes pride in stating it has serviced leases
in-house from commencement to terminations, and disposals
since 1988.
- We
use master lease arrangements and subsequent schedules
to efficiently perpetuate additional lease needs as required
by our clients.
- Our
professionals are very experienced in leasing and top
level management strategies. We can actually achieve “Off-Balance
Sheet” structures.
- We
work very closely with the CFO’s and CIO’s
of large enterprises to help contain cost in disposition
activities associated with technology equipment. “Asset
Management” of technology equipment has become
a very important, costly, and sensitive risk issue for
major firms to carefully consider. Confidentiality of
data with respect to new privacy laws, and the logistics
and handling of the equipment disposition relative to
EPA requirements have put a new emphasis on leasing equipment
instead of maintaining direct ownership.
- The
bulk of Fortran’s portfolio of equipment on lease
is mainframe computers, workstations (PCs), laptops,
POS, servers, switches, KSU’s, VoIP, Video Conferencing,
etc., used in the data and/or telecom world. This specific
activity allows us to stay in tune with values and technology
transitioning. Also, we sell or lease mid-size and large
mainframes, and servers out of our portfolio inventory
to company data centers seeking specific items in the
market to help them avoid paying the high cost of new
units purchased direct from the manufacturers.
- We
will finance other types of equipment with competitive
rates and structures, as well, even though we emphasize
Technology Equipment as a specialty.
