Utilizing current drone technology – economically and according to requirements
Drones have established themselves as indispensable tools in numerous professional fields. Whether in construction, industry, video surveillance, or protection and rescue operations, they open up new possibilities, contribute to cost reduction, and increase efficiency. However, acquiring high-quality industrial drones requires careful planning, as it involves considerable investment costs. Such acquisitions are typically depreciated over a period of two to five years. Due to rapid technological advancements, however, these systems are often obsolete after only about three years.
What challenges does the rental model solve?
Budget control and cost savings
- Avoid high investment costs
Purchasing professional industrial drones can cost tens of thousands of Swiss francs, representing a significant budget burden. With the rental model, drones are available at clearly calculable monthly rates – without a large initial investment. - Always using the latest technology
Technological development is progressing rapidly. Many models are considered obsolete after just a few years. Through the rental model, authorities regularly benefit from state-of-the-art drone systems and avoid operating outdated technology. - Take advantage of tax benefits
Rental costs are considered ongoing operating expenses and can be directly claimed as a tax deduction. This leads to a reduction in expenses. - Financial flexibility and less capital tied up
If permits or approvals are still pending, rental payments can be paused upon request. The drones will remain reserved and will be ready for immediate use once the permits are received.
