Maximize Your Return on Every Retired Device
At Advanced Technologies International (ATI), we don’t see end-of-life technology as waste — we see it as opportunity. Our IT Asset Value Recovery program helps businesses recover maximum financial return from their retired, surplus, or decommissioned equipment, while maintaining data security and environmental responsibility obligations.
Through a combination of expert auditing, equipment grading, and market-driven resale strategies, ATI turns outdated technology into measurable value for our clients.
Comprehensive IT Asset Auditing
Every project begins with a detailed asset audit designed to establish a clear, verifiable inventory of all equipment being decommissioned or retired. Our trained technicians use industry-standard barcode or RFID systems to track every device through the entire chain of custody.
Our Audit Process Includes:
- Serial Number & Model Verification: Every unit is logged, scanned, and verified for complete traceability.
- Hardware & Component Testing: Equipment is function-tested to determine operability and market potential.
- Configuration & Specification Capture: Each item’s specifications — CPU, RAM, storage, GPU, and more — are verified and recorded for resale accuracy.
- Condition Assessment: Visual inspection and diagnostic evaluation to identify cosmetic or functional defects.
- Reporting & Documentation: A complete asset audit report is provided, including serialized inventory, grading results, and recommendations for redeployment, resale, or recycling.
With ATI, you’ll always have full visibility into your IT asset inventory and recovery potential — ensuring transparency, accountability, and compliance at every step.
Professional Equipment Grading
Once equipment has been audited, ATI’s specialists perform a multi-tier grading process to categorize each device based on cosmetic appearance, functionality, and market demand.
Grading Levels:
- Grade A: Perfect condition;
- No screen or case scratches, no dents or chips. Perfect condition / like new

- Grade B: Minor Cometic Issues
- Signs of use. No noticeable screen scratches. Any scratches on the screen or case must be less than .25”. No screen rash, no glass chips, no case dents.
- Fully Functional
- Grade C: Cosmetic Issues
- Heavy Signs of use. Scratches on screen and case must be less than .5”. Case dents cannot exceed .5”. No cracked screens.
- Fully Functional
- Grade D: Heavy Cosmetic Issues

- Grade F:
- Not functional. Does not power, does not display, non functional ports and buttons.
This grading system ensures that every asset is placed in its most profitable and responsible channel, maximizing both financial recovery and sustainability outcomes.
Value Recovery & Remarketing
After testing and grading, ATI leverages a wide range of remarketing and resale channels to secure the best possible return for your equipment. Our global network of distributors, resellers, and direct-to-business buyers allows us to move refurbished assets efficiently and profitably.
Our Value Recovery Advantages:
- Competitive Buyback Programs: ATI purchases equipment outright, offering immediate value return.
- Refurbishment & Reuse: In-house refurbishment to restore devices to resale-ready condition.

- With ATI, clients routinely recover significant value from retired technology portfolios — offsetting new equipment purchases and funding future IT investments.
Sustainability Meets Profitability
Our approach is simple: maximize value while minimizing waste. Every device we process undergoes secure data destruction, responsible refurbishment, or certified recycling. This ensures that no asset goes unused, no data goes unprotected, and no opportunity for recovery is overlooked.
By partnering with Advanced Technologies International, your organization gains a trusted ITAD partner dedicated to security, sustainability, and measurable financial returns.
