Use It Or Lose It Budgets Going Ho Ho Home

Make The Most of Your “Use-It-or-Lose-It” Budget Before It Goes Ho-Ho-Home


The end of the year has a way of sneaking up on organizations, much like that last-minute holiday shopping rush. And for many teams, so does the realization that they still have “use-it-or-lose-it” funds left in their 2025 budget. While it’s tempting to hurry and spend those dollars anywhere they’ll fit under the tree, the smartest investments are the ones that continue delivering value long after the decorations come down.

At MIDCOM Data Technologies, we’ve spent more than four decades helping organizations wrap up their year with stronger, more reliable printing operations. This December, consider giving your team the gift of fewer disruptions and better performance by putting remaining budget toward the service upgrades and maintenance that keep your printers running “all through the year.”

The Gift That Keeps on Giving: Upgrading Your Service Plan
Your printers have worked hard across another busy year. If your service plan is outdated or no longer aligned with your needs, now is a perfect time to upgrade. A refreshed plan can help ensure that when something goes wrong, you’re not left out in the cold.

Upgraded service plans can offer:

  • Faster repair and response times
  • Priority access to replacement parts
  • Expanded coverage to reduce unexpected costs
  • Predictable budgeting for the year ahead

A small investment today can prevent a blizzard of downtime in the months to come.

  • Extend the lifespan of equipment

What 2026 Has in Store
A new year brings new opportunities, along with a few challenges organizations should be prepared for:

  • Higher expectations for uptime: Across industries, teams will continue pushing for faster, more reliable operations. Service plans that emphasize quick response and proactive care will become even more essential.
  • Continued strain on parts availability: Supply chain pressures aren’t melting away yet. Upgrading service coverage now ensures access to stocked replacement parts before shortages can lead to extended downtime.
  • Growing demand for operational efficiency: Businesses will keep investing in automation, optimization, and traceability initiatives. Well-maintained printers will be a foundation for these improvements.
  • A focus on cost predictability: With shifting budgets and economic uncertainty, organizations will continue prioritizing service plans that eliminate surprise repair bills and help control long-term spending.
