  • Converge Adds IT Asset Disposition Services to Singapore Plant

    Posted on February 15th, 2010 admin No comments

    Converge, a leading supply chain services company based in Peabody, Mass., has announced the expansion of its international IT asset disposition (ITAD) facilities to support the secure, “green” disposal of obsolete computer equipment.

    Converge’s Singapore facility, which it calls a state-of-the-art hub for electronic components distribution, has been expanded to include a full suite of ITAD services.

    “Global presence and capabilities have become key decision criteria for enterprises selecting an ITAD partner,” says Converge CEO Frank Cavallaro. “Today we have an unsurpassed worldwide network of facilities and expertise for advanced services that support the entire electronics life cycle.”

    The enhanced Singapore ITAD operation joins Converge’s full-service facility in Schiphol, Netherlands, servicing Europe. These new centers complement Converge’s ITAD capabilities in the United States, with major facilities in Peabody and Columbus, Ohio

    “The Fortune 1000 customers that we serve absolutely require in-region resources for the risk-sensitive disposal of retired IT assets,” says Chris Adam, Converge vice president of ITAD services. “They demand security and transparency throughout the entire process, from preparing IT assets for shipment to physically transporting them to the most appropriate processing facility. This cannot be accomplished without a uniform process that provides full visibility into each step of the disposition process.”

    In addition to Converge-owned facilities, the company has developed a network of “managed partners” worldwide, which it claims provides “a single, seamless process across all its global ITAD service offerings.” The company says its process is tied together by its proprietary Asset Manager Web-based reporting system, which provides clients with real-time visibility into the process and features detailed reporting, metrics and benchmarking tools.

    Converge is a global supply chain partner for technology-driven companies. The organization’s three business divisions provide to just-in-time distribution of electronic components, reverse supply chain solutions and secure IT asset disposition.
