Why Choose Third Party Maintenance?

Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) contracts can be expensive and inflexible, often requiring organisations to upgrade or replace hardware before it’s truly necessary. Third party maintenance offers a smarter alternative—extending the lifespan of IT assets, reducing costs, and providing support tailored to your business needs. TPM providers like FNG give you the freedom to choose the right level of support, at the right price, for as long as you need it.

Our Global Reach & Multi-Vendor Expertise

FNG operates in over 150 countries, supporting clients in Europe, the Americas, APAC, LATAM, Africa, and the Middle East. Our network of over 6,500 certified engineers means we can deliver rapid, reliable service wherever your infrastructure is located. Unlike some large service providers who rely on layers of subcontractors, we employ direct engineering staff—ensuring quality, accountability, and efficiency at every stage.

We support a wide range of hardware from leading manufacturers, including:

  • HPE – Servers, storage, networking equipment
  • Dell – PowerEdge servers, storage arrays, switches
  • Brocade – Fibre channel switches, SAN infrastructure
  • NetApp – Storage systems and data management solutions
  • EMC2 – Storage and backup hardware
  • And many more, including Cisco, Lenovo, Juniper, and Oracle

Enterprise data storage is mission-critical. FNG delivers global storage hardware maintenance and support for NetApp, EMC2, Dell, HPE, and other leading vendors. Our certified engineers provide proactive monitoring, rapid fault resolution, and replacement parts as needed, so your data remains secure and accessible. We understand the unique demands of storage environments and tailor our SLAs to meet your business continuity requirements.

Network Hardware Support & Maintenance

Network reliability underpins every digital operation. FNG’s network hardware support and maintenance services cover switches, routers, firewalls, and wireless infrastructure from vendors including Brocade, Cisco, HPE, and Dell. Our global reach means we can respond rapidly—often within hours—to network incidents, minimising downtime and ensuring your teams stay connected.

Servers are the heart of your IT estate. FNG provides global server hardware maintenance and support for mission-critical systems, whether in the data centre or at the edge. Our engineers are experienced with HPE, Dell, Lenovo, and other major brands, delivering everything from scheduled preventative maintenance to emergency repairs. We support a range of SLAs, including 24×7, 4-hour response, and next business day options.

Data Centre Liquid Cooling Support

As high-density computing becomes the norm, data centre cooling is more important than ever. FNG offers data centre liquid cooling maintenance services to ensure your infrastructure remains safe and efficient. Our team is trained in the latest cooling technologies and can support a wide range of systems to keep your data centre running optimally.

Flexible Service Level Agreements (SLAs)

Every business is unique, so we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all support. FNG works closely with our partners to deliver maintenance solutions that match your operational requirements and risk profile. Whether you need 24/7 support, 4-hour onsite response, or next business day service, we’ve got you covered.
