In an expanding ITAD landscape, value-added IT asset disposition, or vITAD, services are becoming the new industry norm. The industry is constantly changing, but in recent years clients’ needs have become more sophisticated, requiring ITAD providers to go above and beyond the traditional core service offerings.
One such offering is mobility-managed services (MMS). As an IT asset management and disposition enterprise with more than 30 years of experience in the industry, HOBI focuses on maximizing the value of mobile IT assets even at the end of their use. HOBI provides full-service Mobile Lifecycle Management (MLM) for Mobility Managed Services (MMS) programs. Our vITAD services minimize the expensive costs of post-procurement support of enterprise mobility assets.
Depending on the model, smartphones are about the same price as high-end laptops like Macbooks, and new models roll out yearly. Keeping IT hardware up to date is crucial for any enterprise, but upgrades every year or two can become costly over time. Many companies have turned to using pre-owned mobile devices rather than wasting resources on new ones.
Refurbished devices provide tremendous economic benefits to our clients as an alternative to purchasing new devices. HOBI’s MLM services include test and repair, refurbishment, liquidation, and reverse logistics management, collectively providing a complete post-launch solution for the enterprise. HOBI’s Dallas and Phoenix facilities provide MLM services for all models of cell phones and tablets.
Purchasing used devices conserves precious resources and can help bring a company closer to achieving environmental ESG goals. More companies are becoming environmentally aware and implementing sustainability measures to reduce their carbon footprint. Purchasing used devices helps decrease the demand for new devices, decreasing the necessity for natural resources.
As mobile continues to grow, so does the need for enterprises to engage an MMS provider to address the unique challenges of leveraging mobile technology.
