The Importance of ITAD & Compliance

ITAD (IT Asset Disposition) is a set of operations and processes that focus on getting rid of obsolete device assets in an environmental-friendly and responsible manner. Businesses should deal with certified ITAD vendors, such as Vernon Technology Solutions a division of DCR Systems Group Inc., when disposing of, refurbishing, or reselling unwanted devices. This will help to decrease the risk of data breaches and minimize contributions to the global electronic waste issue. By extending the life of electronics through asset remarketing services, we can work together to minimize our environmental impacts.

Did you know Vernon and DCR are R2 certified companies? The R2 (Responsible Recycling) certification is an electronic recycling standard accredited by Sustainable Electronics Recycling International (SERI). It is recognized as the global environmental, worker health and safety standard for electronic recyclers. Each facility must undergo an audit to ensure demonstrated conformance to the requirements in R2. We are proud to be R2 certified and to be a part of the sustainability journey in helping to build a circular economy.

Vernon and DCR are also proud to practice regulatory compliance in all our processes. This is outlined in our ISO certifications which follows quality standards under the ISO framework and our occupational health & safety certification:

Support for the Hybrid Workplace

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many employees were shifted to home office settings for health and safety precautions. Although remote work has several productivity benefits, employers are eager to transition their staff back to the office. During this transition, businesses have begun to implement a hybrid work model. Essentially, hybrid workplace models blend remote work with in-office work.

A hybrid workplace model helps to increase productivity while incorporating a greater work-life balance. This model provides opportunities for businesses to save money on rental or property costs, as well as office equipment because of the alternating schedule of remote work and in-office employees.

But let’s take a step back. Before the pandemic, many office spaces were equipped with the time-latest technology for work-related task completion. Fast forward almost two years—present-day—such equipment has been left untouched and collecting dust in these office spaces, because of the mass number of remote workers. With the transition to hybrid models, employees will need to be equipped with office technology to execute their workday. However, many of these devices need to be upgraded as they have become obsolete.

Vernon and DCR are here to provide a seamless solution. Get value for your old office IT equipment with our ITAD and redeployment services. Whether you are supporting employees remotely, in the office or a hybrid model, we can help to enhance returns on old assets. Contact us today to get started.
