High upfront costs
Significant capital was tied up in IT hardware rather than educational development.

Mr. Tichý,
Riverside School Prague
Challenges
Limited scalability
Student numbers vary each year, making forecasting and procurement complex.
Sustainability concerns
The school sought a more responsible way to manage its IT lifecycle.
The solution
CHG-MERIDIAN collaborated closely with Riverside School Prague to create an IT approach that fully supports the school’s educational and operational goals. The result is a flexible model that allows Riverside to scale its technology in line with student needs, without being restricted by traditional purchasing cycles or long-term ownership.
Financially, the new setup enables the school to allocate resources more strategically. Instead of tying up capital in hardware, Riverside can direct investments toward what matters most: teaching quality, infrastructure improvements, and student development.
Sustainability also plays a key role. Every device is managed responsibly throughout its lifecycle, refurbished, and given a second life wherever possible. This reduces waste and aligns perfectly with the school’s commitment to environmentally responsible operations.
Together, these elements provide Riverside with a modern, reliable, and forward-looking IT environment, one that supports learning today while remaining adaptable for the future.
The Results
Financial flexibility
Resources remain available for educational development.
Operational efficiency
Devices are delivered, maintained, and refreshed seamlessly each year.
Sustainability
Refurbishment and reuse contribute to reduced e-waste and a lower carbon footprint.
