Responsible IT asset disposition is more important than ever in the digital age, and having a disposition plan in place will simplify the process and help companies achieve ESG goals, improve communication, and protect sensitive enterprise data. IT asset disposition covers a range of end-of-use services and goes beyond discarding retired IT assets. Partnering with a vITAD provider includes value-added ITAD services that benefit your enterprise by protecting data, protecting the environment, and providing more transparency regarding how much energy a company saves.

Data Destruction & Security 

Data security is a number one priority for any organization and should be just as crucial after disposition. Assets like laptops, smartphones, tablets, PCs, printers, and data centers store exponential amounts of data until properly sanitized. Data destruction is a critical step in the disposition process, and many are unaware that this is the only way to completely remove data from IT assets. Data remains on assets until properly wiped, which means it is vulnerable to data theft until then. ITAD professionals prioritize data security throughout every step of the disposition process to ensure no data breaches occur. HOBI’s internally developed data erasure tool, HOBI Shield, is just one of three data security steps we take to prevent data leaks. HOBI Shield completely wipes data from a device, and any hard drives that cannot be entirely erased are destroyed via shredding technology. 

Improve Communication With ERP Integration

Technology dictates the way we communicate and the way business is conducted. Digital communication is the primary form of communication, and navigating new challenges can be frustrating. An ITAD partner helps overcome digital obstacles with ERP integration. ERP systems are an enterprise’s organizational method for supply chain management, order management, procurement, and analytics. As a value-added ITAD service, ERP integration connects your ERP system with other on-premise and cloud applications a business uses, such as ServiceNow, enabling the ERP system and the other apps to stay in sync. This helps employees collaborate and communicate more effectively in a world dominated by digital communication.

Implement Diversity by Partnering with a WBE-Certified Vendor

Diversity in the workplace has become a mainstream requirement for partnerships in the business world, and partnering with a woman-owned, WBE-certified business provides a unique opportunity to achieve social ESG goals. A WBE certification enables other companies to identify diverse suppliers and enhance their ESG goals while helping promote women-owned businesses. 

HOBI, led by co-founder and CEO Cathy Hill, is a trusted industry leader with a history of service excellence spanning more than 30 years. In addition to the company’s WBE certification, HOBI is an R2v3, RIOS, and ISO-14001 certified IT asset disposition enterprise focused on maximizing the value of retired IT assets, and safe, efficient IT asset disposal.
