As an increasingly more common industry standard, ESG reporting is now something many businesses will look for before partnering with another enterprise. Furthermore, partnering with a WBE-certified IT asset management and disposition provider can help companies achieve governance ESG criteria by working with a woman-owned business.
The ITAD landscape is changing and now includes several additional facets of the industry such as support for remote workers, R2v3 certification, robust ERP, data privacy, and ESG reporting. These additional ITAD services augment the traditional ITAD model with new value-added services, including ERP integration, portal customization for asset tracking, asset redeployment, re-imaging, and ESG reporting.
ESG reporting provides transparency and accountability within the workplace by representing a company’s environmental, social, and governance policies. ESG is accomplished in many ways in the ITAD space through electronics recycling, data security, and certification.
Certification is a large part of governance criteria, and businesses with a WBE certification offer other companies an opportunity to achieve their own governance ESG goals by partnering with a diverse supplier.
A WBE certification enables other companies to identify diverse suppliers and enhance their ESG goals while helping promote women-owned businesses to major corporations looking to do business with a woman-owned company.
