Renting might seem like a quick fix, but it\u2019s expensive. Imagine paying around $1,500 every week for a rental van. If approvals take three extra months (about 12 weeks), that\u2019s $18,000 spent that you didn\u2019t plan for. Ouch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Perte de financement :<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Some grants or funding opportunities have deadlines. If your procurement approval drags on past that deadline, you could miss out. Let\u2019s say your organization qualified for a $25,000 grant for accessible vehicles. If your approval isn&#8217;t done in time, that money disappears. Now you\u2019re stuck finding other ways to cover the cost. That\u2019s frustrating.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Maintenance costs:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When you can\u2019t replace your old wheelchair van or medical unit because of slow approvals, you keep using vehicles that need constant repairs. Small fixes might seem okay at first, but they add up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Tires:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Around $800+ for a set<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Engine repairs:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Anywhere from $500 to $3,000<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Accessibility equipment fixes:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Typically $1,200 per repair<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your old van keeps breaking down, you\u2019re basically throwing money away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Staff time:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Your team spends valuable hours chasing paperwork and calling procurement offices. Time is money. Let\u2019s say a staff member earning $30 per hour spends 5 hours every week just following up. Over three months, that&#8217;s an extra $1,800 you\u2019re paying someone just to wait.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These costs might feel small at first, but they quickly add up. Knowing exactly how your money gets wasted during slow procurement approvals helps you avoid it. Next, let\u2019s look at how these delays affect your community directly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin: 40px 0;\">\n<div style=\"margin: 60px 0; padding: 20px;\"><a style=\"display: inline-flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; background-color: #8cc63e; color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; padding: 14px 30px; border-radius: 5px; line-height: 0; height: 40px; transition: background-color 0.2s ease, text-decoration 0.2s ease;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/wheelchair-van-buyers-guide\/?hsCtaTracking=52cf15c5-c91d-4e3e-b41a-18d7690431af%7C6a36290b-97e1-4e0b-99da-8d9854d8c663#download-guide-form\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\nT\u00e9l\u00e9chargez le guide d'achat des fourgons pour fauteuils roulants !<br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How do procurement approval delays hurt your target community?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the procurement approval process takes too long, it affects people.

Each week it\u2019s delayed means around 25 to 30 people might miss their health appointments. After just two months, that\u2019s about 240 missed appointments. Those visits matter, especially when people rely on your service for regular check-ups or medicine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Feeling stuck at home:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re waiting on procurement approvals for a wheelchair van, people in your community might feel stuck. Think about a friend who can\u2019t leave home easily because the van they need is delayed. It means missing family gatherings, job interviews, or even going to the grocery store.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Slow response in emergencies:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes you need vehicles fast, especially if there\u2019s an emergency like a flu outbreak or extreme weather. If procurement approvals take too long, your community has to wait. Waiting even a few weeks longer can mean more people getting sick or not getting help quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Trust goes down:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When people count on you and your organization can\u2019t deliver because of slow procurement approvals, trust suffers. It\u2019s tough to earn that trust back. If your community starts thinking you\u2019re unreliable, they might stop reaching out when they need help.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Delays in procurement approvals impact real lives in big ways.
