Renting also has the potential to provide further cost savings for the user. Software providers install the application for you, provide the relevant licens- es and offer the appropriate warranties. Companies who prefer the initial capital outlay of buying in completely new systems, will be hit with mainte- nance and repair bills at regular intervals. For those renting, it will usually be included in the rental agreement. Software providers will also offer ICE VALVE & FITTING Supplying the world with all of your pipe, valve & fitting needs!

This makes renting partic- ularly attractive for small and medium-sized com- panies, giving them the option to continue with the service at regular intervals, or choose to leave when they are more financially sound and can afford to install and maintain their own systems. Of course, software rental is likely to have far- reaching consequences for the shipping and office environments. Shipowning companies could install loading and structural software on their vessels under license, while offshore companies could install rented software for electron- ic mail and ship-to-shore communica- tions with their platforms out at sea. New software facilities for use with satellite communications could be marketed under fixed-term rental arrangements. Renting software could help a company ensure it is millennium-compliant, as well as provide a guarantee for a compa- ny's customers that it is capable of ensur- ing continuity of service over the suspect dates, in addition to exhibiting prepared- ness to make internal investments to con- tinue providing them with a quality ser- vice. More companies can be expected to offer it as standard. by Lawrence Royston, marketing director of U.K.-based Dataworks (U.K.) Ltd.

Circle 21 on Reader Service Card Hale Hamilton Creates Flexible Valve System A new, flexible valve system developed by specialists Hale Hamilton is setting the standard for major changes in the way high pressure pneumatic and hydraulic operations are controlled on naval sub- marines and surface ships. The high per- formance Series 30 comprises a cartridge valve system based on five different valve body sizes, as well as a stand-alone range of valve inserts to suit the individual application. The completely interchange- able inserts ensure are easier to maintain and repair, and a replacement cartridge can be easily fitted or the inserts can be removed and repaired in-situ, resulting in minimum downtime for boat systems.
