INTRODUCTION TO THE ITAD WORKS
The ITAD Works are specialists in the processes and services related to IT hardware change:
Pre-life activities - receipt, configuration and deployment, logistics, installation and
secure storage
Mid-life activities - decommission, logistical moves, repair and refurbishment
End-of-life activities - reverse logistics, data erasure, asset remarketing and recycling
Established in 2002, we have quietly built a reputation for excellence in the field of IT Asset Disposition
(ITAD). The key to our reputation is an uncompromising focus and iron grip on quality control. Our
expertise lies in our ability to identify and execute leaner processes; agile, integrated services; and a
measurable reduction in environmental impact.
We have established systems and processes to manage IT Asset Disposition for new, used and retired
technology. Our innovative methods are becoming increasingly important as compliance, security and
financial constraints demand more and more attention at the board room table.
Our proprietary systems use automation and technology to implement process control at a granular
level. Our entire business is transparent to the last detail. This enables our clients to easily audit and
measure the efficiencies of the service solutions that we provide.
Our service model has also been built around this very foundation, providing a rigid internal framework
strong enough to support scalable, bespoke service solutions with a high level of flexibility.
All core services are delivered in-house – resource, facilities, technology and transportation. Our service
model delivers a number of different solutions that use interchangeable service lines that are integrated
within our process control system.
The ITAD Works provides solutions that help organisations move from fragmented, tactical
management of surplus hardware to integrated, strategic IT Asset Disposition programmes
that can return millions to a typical IT budget.
Better asset value, no risk, complete control… ITAD Works
