Remember a corporation’s most valuable asset which they cannot afford to dispose of is their brand and reputation. And this is exactly what happens to companies every day when they choose the wrong partner in asset disposition. Our ITAD solutions help protect our clients brand and reputation with data security and strict environmental compliance regulations. We understand that each client has a situation that may be different from someone else but it all boils down to having someone that that will help choose the proper partner.

 

When it comes to retiring assets or the disposition of excess, obsolete or overstock and end-of-life assets several things are very important.Years ago it was only about maximizing your return on investment (ROI). In this day and time it is still about ROI, but corporations have to be concerned about other things like their corporate sustainability image. Two of the most important issues are data security and environmental issues.You can get any company to come and handle your assets but it is wise to have a third party like NSS to evaluate the overall corporate partnership for IT Asset Disposition. Our process usually involves working with the IT directors,financial officers, compliance officers and the proposed asset disposition company. The evaluation of the partner that you chose to dispose of your assets can be the most important decision for your corporate reputation.
