Without a plan
Most equipment gets replaced when it breaks.
These are the four problems we find when nobody tracks it.
Surprise purchases
Replacements bought in a rush when something dies.
Unsupported devices
Computers still running software that no longer gets security fixes.
No inventory
Nobody can show you what you own or how old it is.
Old drives in a closet
Retired equipment that still holds your data.
What we track and do
Lifecycle management: the right equipment at the right time.
We replace equipment based on good information, not on what just failed.
What you own
Every computer, server and network device documented with age, warranty and support status.
What to buy next year
A multi-year roadmap and budget, reviewed with you in your technology business reviews.
What loses security updates
Alerts before operating systems, software or devices lose security updates.
We buy it for you
We resell Microsoft Surface as a member of Microsoft’s Surface reseller program, along with HP and Lenovo business devices, and source the licensing to go with them.
Ready when it arrives
New devices set up, secured and loaded with your applications before they arrive.
The old computer, retired
Data securely wiped and equipment recycled through certified partners, with records for compliance.
How we work
Replace equipment on your schedule.
We track performance, warranty and support dates for every device. Sometimes that means telling you the server you own should be your last.
When we replace equipment
Computers. Every 3 to 4 years.
Servers. At 5 years.
Firewalls. At 3 to 5 years.
We recommend upgrades when they make sense, and repairs when they don’t.
What you get from it
Budget clarity. Know what you’ll spend this year and next.
Security first. No device stays past its security support.
Records for audits. Asset and disposal documentation, ready when asked.
How it works
It starts with the risk conversation.
-
01
Ask first
Before we touch a computer, we ask what you’re trying to accomplish and what keeps going wrong.
-
02
Inventory and plan
We document every device and build a replacement roadmap and budget, ordered by risk.
-
03
Deploy
New equipment sourced, set up and installed, with your data moved over.
-
04
Retire
Old equipment wiped, recycled and documented.
Questions owners ask
What is IT lifecycle management?
IT lifecycle management means tracking every device from purchase to disposal and replacing equipment at the right time, based on its age, warranty and support status. We keep a multi-year replacement roadmap and budget, buy and set up new devices, and wipe and recycle old ones with records for compliance.
Is lifecycle management an extra cost?
We handle lifecycle management as part of our managed IT services. You get asset tracking and planning without hiring staff or buying management software.
How do you decide when to replace a device?
We look at manufacturer support status, performance, failure history, warranty coverage and compatibility with your applications.
Can you buy hardware for us?
Yes. We resell Microsoft Surface, HP and Lenovo business devices, source the licensing to go with them and set everything up before it arrives.
What happens to our old equipment?
We securely wipe data and dispose of equipment through certified recycling partners, with documentation for your records.
