Tips and Guides about Self-Service Terminal Installation Kenya

Planning a multi-site rollout

The technical work at each site is a few hours. Everything else is coordination: access permission, a landlord who needs notice, power that turns out to be shared with a neighbouring tenant, a delivery vehicle that cannot reach the forecourt. Rollouts slip because of the second list, and the second list is only knowable through survey.

Downtime: how it is measured and how it is reduced

Availability across a self-service fleet is measured in downtime hours per terminal per month. Reducing it comes down to three things: early fault detection, spare parts held close to the site, and a service route that puts critical locations first. A properly sized preventive maintenance plan removes a good share of corrective call-outs and, with them, the waiting that builds up at the branch. It is one of the questions branches ask us most often: every location live on the promised date.

The delivery that arrives at an unready site

A unit delivered to a location without a prepared base, adequate power or an accessible route does not wait politely. It occupies floor space, becomes somebody's responsibility, and generates a second delivery cost when it has to be moved or stored. One surveyor day per site removes almost all of these.
