Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about leasing with Summus Financial Services.
Can my project be leased?
Many technology, equipment, software, and capital projects may be eligible for leasing. The best next step is to share your project details with our team — we can quickly help you understand eligibility and what a lease structure could look like.
What types of equipment can be leased?
Computers, servers, networking, AV, security, storage, software, medical equipment, communication systems, mobility equipment, and other capital equipment may be eligible. If you don't see your equipment listed, contact our team to confirm.
Is the equipment list on your website exhaustive?
No. The equipment categories listed on this site are a representative sample. Many other equipment types may qualify. If your equipment isn't listed, the best step is to contact our team directly.
How long does the approval process take?
Timeline depends on the project scope, organization type, and lease structure needed. Once we understand your project, our team can give you a realistic expectation. Many straightforward projects move quickly.
Who qualifies for leasing through Summus Financial Services?
Eligibility depends on the organization, project, and financing requirements. We work with public-sector organizations, educational institutions, healthcare providers, enterprise IT teams, and growing businesses. Contact us and we can assess your specific situation.
Can public-sector buyers use Summus Financial Services?
Yes. We have extensive experience supporting public-sector procurement, including through the DIR-CPO-5033 contract vehicle for eligible Texas organizations. See our Contract Vehicles page for more detail.
Are maintenance and support included in leases?
Depending on the equipment and lease structure, maintenance and support may be incorporated. This can help reduce downtime and free your internal teams for strategic work. Our team will explain what's available for your specific project.
What happens at the end of a lease term?
Options typically include returning the equipment, refreshing to new equipment, or in some cases purchasing the equipment. Our team structures lease terms with end-of-term options that make sense for your organization's needs.
What is DIR-CPO-5033?
DIR-CPO-5033 is a state contract vehicle administered by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR).
