The Third Party Maintainer (TPM) market is more active and robust than it has been in decades!
Key Facts:
Private equity activity has dramatically increased over the last years. Today the top TPM companies are either wholly or heavily invested in by private equity
As a result of the above, TPM providers are actively acquiring complimentary skills, capabilities and access to new geographies, channels or customers. There has and continues to be consolidation in this market thus creating larger and more capable providers.
OEMs are leveraging third-party maintainers, pushing out more expensive OEM subcontractors in outsourcing and multivendor maintenance contracts.
Service providers are becoming pragmatic and accepting the option to partner rather than invest their own capital expenditure to develop and build specific capabilities. The fastest growing channel for TPM is through commission-based partnerships with the authorized VAR community.
