We have also built lasting and meaningful business relationships with our valued clients, providing them with the most suitable equipment for their needs and offering expert advice when needed.

If you are considering working with JA Plant for a plant investment, what are the most important aspects you need to know?

 

Below, we will take a look at the 10 most frequently asked questions by JA Plant clients to help you to make an informed decision:

 

1. Does a new plant purchase fit in with our overall business strategy?

Here at JA Plant, we are not in the habit of selling equipment to our clients unnecessarily or just to make a sale.

Instead, we always advise our clients to ensure that investing in their new plant will fit seamlessly into their business strategy.

Although we always try to keep our prices reasonable and as low as possible, the equipment we sell is expensive, and it’s worth consulting with key stakeholders before buying new assets.

 

2. What are the main objectives for investing in a new plant?

Another important question to ask yourself before making a large investment in a new plant is what the purpose for it will be for your business.

JA Plant recommends considering how a new plant will revolutionise your business and how it will streamline your operations.

Once you have a clear idea of what purposes the plant needs to achieve, you can invest in the most suitable one.

 

3. How affordable is an investment in a new plant (ie. minimum and maximum spend)?

It is difficult to quantify the cost of a plant because JA Plant customizes plants according to the client’s needs.

As you know, each business has its own unique requirements from a new plant, and what will be affordable for one company may not necessarily be the case for another.

We recommend getting in touch with a member of our team and discussing your plant requirements and budget. From there, JA Plant can make a well-thought-out and personalized recommendation and quote.

 

4. What will the impact be on our processes and productivity?

JA Plant has extensive experience with providing plants for clients in many countries.

From our experience, we have seen how much our plants can improve productivity and operational processes.

Chances are, a new plant can help you achieve your business goals faster by improving productivity and increasing employee morale. The benefits are endless!

 

5. Will investing in a new plant add to our capacity to innovate?

When investing in any capital expenditure equipment, you first need to assess how much value it will add to your business and its potential for helping you to innovate.

At JA Plant, our plants are custom-made so that they can help you innovate and achieve your operational goals more effectively.

6. Will investing in a new plant add to our bottom line?

A new plant can revolutionize your business in ways you never thought possible. Although there is an initial investment outlay for the equipment, most JA Plant clients find that their investment pays off sooner than they thought, resulting in an increase to their bottom line.

 

7. Will investing in a new plant keep us ahead of our competitors?

In these modern times, competition is tough and, if you want to remain ahead of your competitors, you need to continuously innovate and invest in new assets that can help set you apart.

Depending on your field of operation and the nature of your business, you might be the first in your industry to use such state-of-the-art equipment.

 

8. Is there an option to upgrade existing equipment vs buying new equipment to achieve a similar outcome?

Here at JA Plant, we not only provide brand new plants for clients but also specialize in the refurbishment of machinery.

If you don’t have the budget for a new plant, consider refurbishing your current one.

This can often mean having to spend much less - contact us today for more information!

 

9. Do we have the capacity and qualified staff to make full use of the new equipment?

Investing in a new plant can result in new heights for your business but, with it, also comes investing in training employees on the new equipment.

This should be a top consideration before investing in a new plant.

 

10.  Which is the best investment option for my business purchasing: leasing or renting?

Businesses go through different growth phases and requirements.

If you believe you’ll need a plant for the long-term, it’s often worthwhile purchasing a plant.
