Why This Matters

Modernization decisions involve significant capital investment. Making the wrong choice—whether modernizing when replacement is more economical, or replacing when targeted modernization would suffice—wastes hundreds of thousands of rands. Contractors selling modernization packages have an incentive to recommend their solutions regardless of whether they're optimal for you. Our independent assessment ensures you make the right decision for your specific situation.
