Specifications

Service coordination

Following a covered peril, HP assumes responsibility for restoring Customer's contracted equipment to working order. A HP service engineer will visit Customer's site to assess the damage and initiate an action plan. Depending on the extent of the damage Recover- All Service effort may involve the following HP and/or HP-Authorized personnel:
Service engineers
Network specialists
Local and district service mangers
Environmental specialists
Installation specialists
Software specialists
Risk management personnel

Priority-one repair and replacement

Using "priority-one" procedures, Local HP service personnel will repair or replace damaged or destroyed contracted equipment. Replacement equipment will be equal in functionality and performance to the covered property.

Priority-one service means that, company-wide, HP gives Recover-All Service claims precedence over routine service requests and orders.

Guaranteed shipment for hardware repair order

HP guarantees the delivery of the replacement equipment to Customer covered under Recover-All Service within 72 hours, from the time the equipment order is placed. Failure of HP to deliver equipment to the Customer will result in a daily penalty rate equal to the amount of the Customer's monthly maintenance charges for the covered equipment, not to exceed $5,000 per day or a maximum of $150,000. The amount of the penalty will be paid in the form of a credit memo, which can be applied against Customer's HP maintenance agreement or for the purchase of equipment, software or services from HP.

Replacement of HP equipment

For HP equipment that is damaged or destroyed, replacement equipment will be procured from HP stocking locations, or manufacturing sites. When an exact replacement of the destroyed equipment is not readily available, HP may implement one of several alternatives:
Provide Customer with a comparable system
Prove an upgrade, i.e., a system or component of higher capacity, or
Procure the equipment from a third-party such as a HP Reseller

System restoration

With remote support from a HP Customer Support Center, a team of installation specialists will install, configure and test the Customer's contracted hardware to ensure that it has been restored to operating condition.

To invoke a claim

Recover-All Service claims are invoked by calling the same number to invoke routine warranty or maintenance services delivered by HP.

No loss of computing capacity and no depreciation expense

Recover-All Service replaces damaged equipment that cannot be repaired with equipment of like functionality and performance. Customer experiences no loss in computing capacity and no loss of value due to insurance-related depreciation.

In the event the damaged equipment cannot be repaired or replaced, Recover-All Service will pay Customer the actual cash value of the covered property.
