Workforce Reduction

Managing IT Equipment in the Downsizing Process

Enacting furloughs, layoffs, or downsizing in general is a practice many companies become familiar with at one point or another. In addition to handling the personnel and human resources aspect of the workforce reduction process, a major concern for most companies is managing the surplus laptops, phones, and other IT equipment that accumulate as laid-off employees leave. Whether shutting down an entire branch or downsizing across teams, you need to know that your company’s IT assets are secure – and you probably want to get a return on that initial IT investment. Liquid Technology can help securely wipe confidential data from your surplus hard drives, and we can help you sell the excess equipment, as well.

Surplus IT Equipment

When your company builds up excess IT equipment following a workforce reduction, Liquid Technology can collect the equipment and bring it to their secure facility. We follow D O D 5220.22M and NIST standards to properly wipe the data from all hard drives, ensuring that confidential company data can no longer be accessed from those machines. Then Liquid Technology serves as your broker to sell your company’s used IT equipment.
