Solution F on our assessment

What went wrong

A full hardware refresh was quoted at RM 340,000. The board froze CapEx. Old servers kept running tests.

What it cost if nothing changed

About RM 50,000 per day if the test platform died, plus RM 340,000 cash locked in a purchase.

What we would put in place

We used a lease-to-use production host model so capacity could be replaced without a one-off hardware invoice.

The outcome we design for

Testing is not waiting on a capital budget cycle.
