Challenge
A leading national travel company employing more than 10,000 people faced a major infrastructure refresh across its corporate offices and regional branches. The decommissioning of hundreds of laptops, desktops, servers, and networking devices created a significant volume of retired IT assets—many of which still held residual market value. However, the client lacked an efficient recovery plan, audit process, and resale channel to extract that value responsibly. Without the right partner, the company risked sending viable assets to waste streams, missing out on potential financial recovery, and losing track of serialized equipment during disposal.
Solution
Advanced Technologies International (ATI) stepped in to deliver a comprehensive IT asset recovery and audit program tailored to the client’s multi-site operations. ATI’s technical team conducted a full asset audit—capturing serial numbers, specifications, and condition grades—to ensure accurate valuation of every piece of equipment. Leveraging its extensive secondary market network and OEM partnerships, ATI offered competitive purchase pricing across the client’s hardware portfolio, providing both transparency and speed in the buyout process.
All equipment was securely transported, data-sanitized, and repurposed through ATI’s certified resale and remarketing channels—ensuring environmental compliance while maximizing return value.
Outcome
The client realized $175,000 in recovered value from decommissioned assets, which was reallocated toward upcoming capital projects within their IT and facilities budgets. Beyond the immediate financial gain, ATI ensured that 100% of the retired hardware found a productive second life, reinforcing both the client’s sustainability goals and responsible recycling commitments.
This engagement showcased ATI’s ability to blend financial recovery, operational efficiency, and environmental stewardship, making ATI a trusted lifecycle partner for enterprise clients navigating large-scale IT transitions.
“We helped a national travel company recover $175,000 from iPads they were planning to scrap. That money went straight back into their new IT budget — fueling their next round of upgrades instead of going to a landfill.” – Mikhail Mukhi, COO, ATI
