HP 3 Year Active Care Next Business Day Onsite Desktop Hardware Support – U18HWE
The HP 3 Year Active Care Next Business Day Onsite Desktop Hardware Support (U18HWE) is an extended hardware support plan that adds three years of proactive, AI-assisted coverage on top of a desktop’s original warranty. Rather than waiting for a device to fail before support kicks in, HP Active Care uses predictive analytics powered by HP TechPulse to monitor device health and flag potential issues before they cause downtime, with automatic case generation opening a support ticket as soon as a problem is detected. When onsite repair is needed, HP commits to a next business day response, following remote diagnosis to confirm the issue before dispatching a technician. Coverage runs during standard workdays (9 hours) and includes both remote and onsite service, along with replacement parts and materials. This plan requires the covered hardware to be currently under its native (in-box) warranty at the time of purchase, with service starting from the original hardware purchase date.
