The City of Olympia Police Department is an innovative, full service law enforcement agency whose mission is to proactively address crime and reduce victimization, while safe guarding the constitutional rights of all people. On a daily basis, that purpose engages OPD employees in complex, challenging tasks that are constantly changing. The City of Olympia, the capital of Washington state, is at the southern end of Puget Sound. The sprawling Washington State Capitol Campus, beside Capitol Lake, includes the stately Legislative Building and the 1909 Governor’s Mansion. On the downtown waterfront, Percival Landing Park has a boardwalk and public art.

TEQlease Government Equipment Finance financed OPD’s recent acquisition of semi-rugged laptops for 55 police Officers, to help ensure that OPD officers have the best and latest technology to better serve the city’s citizens. The laptops were supplied and networked by Tukwila, Washington-based Datec Incorporated, a locally owned, leading provider for network and data solutions, and a premier value-added reseller. Since 1975, Datec has served government and business customers throughout the Pacific Northwest.

“Police Chief, Rich Allen and Administrative Manager Jeanelle Stull led the implementation of this project on both the acquisition and financing side. They communicated clearly their objectives for the project as well as all budget restraints, so that the project could be completed timely and efficiently,” said Mike Zajac, TEQlease Education Finance Account Manager.

Charter High School of the Arts, located in Van Nuys, California is known for academic excellence, social responsibility, self-expression, and life-long learning with integrated arts education to help students address broad curriculum themes and achieve robust habits. When COVID19 started to spread
rapidly, California schools were some of the first to shut down and adopt remote learning. The need for personal student devices sky rocketed when decision makers sent students home to learn. As this was occurring, TEQlease Education Account Executives began diligent work to get equipment financing to school districts in need, especially for student devices.

“TEQlease made it easy to finance the purchase of additional Chromebooks as the school transitioned to 1:1 devices at the start of the pandemic. I appreciated being able to connect to a person for support throughout the process” said Linda Pierce, Executive Director of CHAMPS. “I knew the timeline for CHAMPS was important, because students needed personal learning devices to stay on track for the rest of the 2020-21 school year” added Bruce Fornatoro, Senior Education Account Executive.
