Genuine Lenovo Maintenance & TPM: One Agreement, Why?
5 February 2026 - 2 Minute Read
- Genuine Lenovo maintenance for supported products where customers need authorised access to firmware, security updates and OEM intellectual property
- Third-Party Maintenance (TPM) for unsupported or end-of-life Lenovo platforms
Its not an either or. How about a single agreement for newer tech & your legacy kit. All delivered under a single agreement.
What does that look like?
Genuine Lenovo Maintenance
Best suited when you need:
- OEM-authorised firmware and software updates
- Security and reliability advisories
- Vendor-backed escalation
- Compliance and audit assurance
Lenovo TPM (End-of-Life Support)
Ideal when:
- Lenovo OEM support has ended
- Firmware changes are no longer required
- Systems are stable and well understood
- You want to extend asset life and reduce operating costs
TPM services include:
- Hardware break/fix
- Advanced parts replacement
- Flexible SLAs
- Significant savings versus OEM renewals
One Strategy. One Contract. Two Support Models.
Baby Blue helps customers blend OEM and TPM support across Lenovo estates:
- OEM where firmware, security and compliance matter
- TPM where lifecycle extension and cost efficiency make sense
All delivered through one Baby Blue support agreement, removing complexity while reducing risk.
