Secure IT Asset Disposition and R2v3-Certified Electronics Recycling

R2v3-Certified IT Asset Disposition and Electronics Recycling

1

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD)

AEM provides IT asset disposition services for businesses upgrading, relocating, or retiring equipment. Our team supports collection, receiving, serialized tracking, logical data erasure, test and repair, resale evaluation, and downstream recycling through documented processes.

Our team handles:

  • Reduce liability through documented handling and traceability

  • Capture resale value where appropriate

  • Support secure retirement of data-bearing assets

  • Improve reporting and accountability across the project lifecycle

 

Benefits:

  • Reduce liability from improper disposal

  • Lower costs by capturing resale value

  • Ensure compliance with industry and regulatory requirements

Secure Data Handling & Logical Data Erasure

Protecting data-bearing devices is a core part of our process. We follow documented workflows for logical data erasure, controlled handling, and traceable reporting based on project requirements.

  • Logical data erasure methods aligned to NIST SP 800-88 guidance, where applicable

  • Documented chain of custody from pickup through processing

  • Data wipe certificates and asset-level reporting available based on service type

 

Why it matters:

  • Improper handling of hard drives, phones, and other data-bearing devices can create security, legal, and operational risk.

  • AEM helps reduce that risk through documented processes and clear reporting.

Electronics Recycling

We recycle electronics responsibly and work with qualified downstream partners that support traceability, environmental responsibility, and controlled material handling.

  • Downstream recycling chain management

  • Separation and handling based on material category and service path

  • Battery handling subject to applicable state and project requirements

  • Qualified downstream partners for non-reusable material

 

Our recycling approach:

  • Prioritize reuse where appropriate

  • Reduce landfill disposal through responsible downstream management

  • Support documented and controlled processing flows
