How to Maximize Enterprise IT Asset Value and Security with ITAD

Typically, IT asset disposition is an afterthought for most businesses or put on the back burner for years, whether due to inconveniences, cost, or simply lack of knowledge. Having a disposition plan in place can not only save an enterprise time and money but also help protect the environment, and increase asset value as well. ITAD facilities like HOBI partner with organizations for enterprise asset disposition and provide many enterprise benefits like maximized asset value in addition to responsible IT asset disposition.

Data security should be the top priority for any company, and proper IT asset disposition ensures the safety and protection of private enterprise and employee information. When IT assets are retired or destroyed, large amounts of data remain on the devices until properly erased. Partnering with an ITAD provider will ensure peace of mind that your data is in capable hands. HOBI uses an internally developed data erasure tool, the HOBI Shield®, that completely erases any residual data before recycling, and any device that cannot be wiped is shredded to prevent any data leaks.

Most businesses upgrade their IT assets after a year or two to keep current on the latest technology, but sometimes, these retired devices still have some use left. Finding an ITAD provider that offers repair and resale services increases the remarketing value of retired IT assets. It creates an alternative sales channel for those who do not want to spend money on new devices. One of HOBI’s primary focus points is maximizing economic return, and our refurbishment and remarketing options for eligible devices ensure that clients are getting the most value out of their IT assets. 

As a vITAD provider, HOBI offers donation programs as a value-added IT asset disposition service. This enables clients to extend the value of their retired IT assets and helps to bridge the digital divide by donating them to those without access. 

A sound disposition plan with a vITAD provider also includes customizable 3PL reverse logistics solutions that will prevent IT equipment from being sent to landfills, protecting the environment while ensuring client peace of mind and protecting enterprise data.  

Many companies are becoming more environmentally conscious and incorporating greener methods to reduce energy consumption and waste production. In addition, certain businesses are becoming more selective with clients, and partnering with an ITAD provider ensures eco-conscious clients that your business is also committed to reducing its carbon footprint. Proper IT asset disposition provides an environmental approach to waste reduction, which helps meet ESG criteria. HOBI is an R2, RIOS, and ISO-14001 certified enterprise that focuses on mitigating environmental liability and prioritizes maintaining industry standard compliance in every step of the disposition process. 

When it comes to enterprise asset disposition, partnering with an ITAD facility is an environmentally conscious method that offers many other enterprise benefits, including data security, mobile asset management, reverse logistics, and environmental services.
