Computer and Printer Leasing in Australia industry analysis

Over the past five years, the Computer and Printer Leasing industry in Australia has experienced modest growth thanks to rising demand from the government sector, a steady shift of employees back to office environments and a surge in the number of small and medium-size businesses. Notably, employment growth in areas like public administration and health has encouraged these organisations to favour leasing, as the need for frequent hardware upgrades makes purchasing less practical.

Trends and Insights

  • Growth in government sector employment has significantly increased demand for computer and printer leasing services. As public administration, education and health roles have expanded, government departments have increasingly relied on leasing to manage frequent hardware upgrades, boosting industry revenue.
  • Tablets have become more prominent due to their versatility and growing business adoption. Increased use in areas like order management and workflow monitoring has noticeably lifted tablet demand and their share of industry revenue.
  • Access to suitable real estate plays a crucial role in determining where businesses in the industry are located. Companies need both warehousing spaces to store their inventory of digital devices, as well as office facilities to house administrative support staff.
  • Potential entrants to the Computer and Printer Leasing industry face moderate and decreasing entry barriers, mainly arising from substantial start-up costs and capital intensity. Success depends on investing in diverse inventory and managing ongoing expenses for equipment and maintenance.
