Server Maintenance
Eight pillars of server maintenance, named for the OEMs you actually run.
WUC's engineers carry OEM training across the major server platforms — and we cover them all in a single contract, including hardware the OEM no longer supports.
Dell Server Maintenance
Multi-generation support for Dell PowerEdge R/T-series and FX/MX modular — including pre-13G gear Dell ProSupport no longer covers.
iDRAC + OpenManage telemetry
Same-day parts: PSU, fans, NVMe, DIMM
ProSupport-equivalent escalation paths
HPE Server Support
Coverage for HPE ProLiant DL/ML/BL, Synergy modular, and Apollo HPC — including platforms past OEM End-of-Service-Date.
iLO telemetry integration
Smart Array RAID controller swaps
Foundation Care-equivalent SLA tiers
IBM Server Support
Power Systems (Power9/Power10), z-series mainframe collateral, and pre-Lenovo x86 ThinkSystem heritage — without the IBM HMS price ladder.
HMC console support
Power & z hardware-fault triage
24×7 critical-system response
Cisco UCS Maintenance
Cisco UCS B-series blade, C-series rack, and HyperFlex hyperconverged — one contract instead of stacking Smart Net per chassis and fabric.
UCS Manager telemetry
Fabric Interconnect coverage
Chassis + blade single SLA
Lenovo Premier-Equivalent
Lenovo ThinkSystem (SR/SD/SE-series) and post-IBM ThinkServer fleets — premier-tier service quality without the Lenovo Premier Support contract premium.
XClarity telemetry
ThinkSystem + ThinkServer
24×7 critical response

Why WUC
WUC vs. the OEM-branded server maintenance contracts you renew today.
Every OEM has its own contract product. Compare WUC's coverage against each one on the dimensions that matter to a director of infrastructure choosing where to spend the next maintenance budget cycle.
Catch the failing power supply before it takes the rack down.⁴
OEM diagnostic tools watch their own gear and only their own gear. WUC's operational intelligence platform watches every supported server across every OEM, normalizes the telemetry, and runs failure-prediction models trained on cross-fleet data. The signal isn't a single iDRAC log or iLO heartbeat — it's pattern recognition across millions of fleet-hours of power-supply current draw, fan vibration, DIMM ECC error rates, NVMe wear-leveling, and chassis temperature curves.
When component failure crosses a threshold, WUC stages parts and schedules a maintenance window before the failure cascades. Industry research from ARC Advisory Group and McKinsey shows predictive maintenance reduces unplanned downtime 30–50% and extends asset life 20–40%. Your team sees the same scores we see, on the same dashboard.
Component-level prediction
Power supplies, fans, drives, DIMMs, RAID controllers — every component scored individually, not just the chassis.
Cross-OEM signal normalization
Dell iDRAC, HPE iLO, Cisco UCS Manager, IBM HMC, Lenovo XClarity — normalized into one feed.
No black box
Every alert exposes the model confidence and the contributing signals. You see why we predict what we predict.
Server Lifecycle
Six stages of server maintenance, designed to compound.
A systematic engagement model from first asset audit through quarterly optimization — built for procurement, IT operations, and finance to all sign off on the same plan.
1
Assess
Catalog every server: make, model, generation, firmware, support contract status, OEM EOL date.
2
Monitor
Deploy telemetry agents (or use existing iDRAC/iLO/UCS Manager). Onboard within days.
3
Predict
Failure-risk scoring runs continuously. High-confidence predictions trigger pre-emptive parts staging.
4
Maintain
Scheduled firmware lifecycle, component preventive replacement, hardware refresh of failed parts on contractual SLA.
5
Extend
Pre-EOSL transition planning. Hardware life extension beyond OEM end-of-service-life with full coverage.
6
Optimize
Quarterly fleet reviews pair maintenance data with refresh planning. Modernize what's near EOL via WUC's reseller channel.
Risk Reduction
Continuity isn't a contract clause. It's a design discipline.
Cost savings are table stakes. Buyers signing 7-figure server maintenance contracts buy continuity confidence. Here's how WUC delivers it.
Operational redundancy designed in
Pre-staged parts in regional depots eliminate the OEM "we'll ship the part" delay. Average parts-to-site time: under 90 minutes for Mission-Critical tier customers.
Smart maintenance windows
Predictive models identify components trending toward failure during routine maintenance windows — replace before failure, never during. Zero-incident maintenance is a measured outcome, not a slogan.
Compliance-aware service delivery
SOC 2-aware engineer rotation. NDA-coverable engagement model. Background-checked field engineers for regulated industries. Every visit logged with photographic evidence.
FAQ
Answers every server admin asks before switching off OEM contracts.
Industry research from 451 Research and Gartner shows TPM contracts typically run 30–50% less than equivalent OEM-branded contracts. Actual savings depend on fleet composition, OEM mix, generation, and current contract terms. Send us a redacted asset list — we return a written savings analysis in 5 business days.
Yes. Multi-OEM coverage in a single contract is the central advantage of TPM over OEM. One ticket portal, one SLA, one accountable engineer across every server vendor in your fleet. The OEMs cannot offer this by definition — they each own their own contract.
We extend coverage 7+ years past OEM end-of-service-life on most platforms. Parts inventory is the constraint, not engineering capacity. EOSL extension lets you defer refresh cycles and capture full ROI on platforms that are running well.
iDRAC and iLO are single-vendor heartbeats — they alert when something has already failed or threshold-crossed. WUC's platform normalizes telemetry across every OEM in the fleet and runs pattern-recognition models on cross-fleet data. The result is component-level failure scoring before symptoms surface, not after, and a unified view across vendors that no OEM tool can give you by definition.
We plan the overlap window with you in the Assess phase. We don't ask you to pay twice. Common pattern: WUC takes coverage on EOSL or near-EOSL servers immediately; in-warranty servers stay with OEM until renewal, then move. Hybrid coverage during the transition is normal.
Yes — Dell, HPE, IBM, Cisco UCS, Lenovo certifications across the L1–L3 engineer ranks. We do not subcontract to break-fix marketplaces. Engineer rosters and certifications are reviewable during contract negotiation.
SOC 2-aware service delivery, NDA-coverable engagement, background-checked field engineers, photographic incident logs. We support customers in regulated industries (finance, healthcare, public sector) with documented compliance posture provided during contract negotiation.
US enterprise is our primary focus. We can coordinate global coverage for multi-region customers via partner network — this is something we'd scope in the Assess phase rather than promise generically. If global coverage is the primary requirement, we'll tell you whether we're the right fit.
