SMP Robotics offers an alternative way to acquire and own security robots. The leasing of robots by US security companies has become available. Leasing payments range around USD 1,500 per month, depending on the model of the robot.
It is easy to calculate what additional profit the robot will bring with an average salary of security officer USD 30,000 per year or USD 2,500 USD per month. In addition, robots can patrol the protected area, not for 8 hours a day, but much more, without sick leave and absenteeism.
Security business becomes the high margin
Such a low rent allows the company to turn a low-margin security business into a high-margin business. Moreover, the deferral of payments at the stage of implementation of robots allows entering the robotics business with minimal costs.
The highest profit from using robots is achieved when patrolling territories with a group of robots. It allows you to reduce the cost of their maintenance services on one hand and multiply the profit from the number of replaced security officers on another. When leasing security robots, especially a large number of them, the tax deduction for their payment is important.
Section 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of robots and software purchased or financed during the tax year, up to $ 1,000,000 in year one.
