How We Work.
Five clear steps that take a retired asset from collection to documented closure — with traceability at every stage.
Understand What You Have.
Before any asset moves, we need to understand what it is. Asset type, make, model, serial number, approximate age, condition and whether it holds data. This is the foundation of responsible disposition.
Activities
- 1Asset inventory and registration
- 2Serial number capture
- 3Condition classification
- 4Data-bearing status identification
- 5Recovery potential evaluation
Outputs
- →Asset register
- →Condition report
- →Recovery potential summary
Protect Sensitive Information.
Retired hardware can retain sensitive business data. Before any asset is released from controlled custody, data-bearing media is identified and processed through the appropriate sanitization or destruction method.
Activities
- 1Identify all data-bearing media
- 2Maintain controlled chain of custody
- 3Apply appropriate sanitization method
- 4Physical destruction where required
- 5Document the process applied
Outputs
- →Data security records
- →Certificate of process (where applicable)
- →Updated asset register
Identify Reusable and Recoverable Value.
With data secured, each asset is evaluated for its recovery potential — working devices for reuse, refurbishable devices for refurbishment, and all others for component or material recovery.
Activities
- 1Functional testing
- 2Grading (A / B / C / Parts)
- 3Market value assessment where applicable
- 4Refurbishment viability review
- 5Parts and material recovery assessment
Outputs
- →Graded asset list
- →Recovery recommendation per asset
Refurbish, Reuse or Route to Appropriate Partners.
Assets are routed to their optimal next step — redeployed, refurbished, sold, parts-recovered, or channelized to verified processing and recycling partners appropriate for the material category.
Activities
- 1Route working assets to reuse or resale
- 2Refurbish qualifying devices
- 3Match end-of-life material to verified partners
- 4Coordinate collection and transfer
- 5Track movement with documentation
Outputs
- →Disposition routing plan
- →Transfer documentation
- →Partner receipts
Close the Loop With Documentation.
Every program ends with a closure report — detailing what happened to each asset, from collection to final disposition. This supports business compliance, audit trails and internal sustainability reporting.
Activities
- 1Compile asset-level disposition records
- 2Include data security status per asset
- 3Document recycling and recovery outcomes
- 4Consolidate partner documentation
- 5Deliver closure report
Outputs
- →Closure report
- →Asset disposition summary
- →Documentation package
