Abstract
This IDC Tech Buyer Presentation contains survey data that provides practical details about how including refurbished IT equipment into procurement strategies improves equipment life cycles, reduces costs, and improves sustainability metrics.
Digital-first businesses are focused on continuing to evolve and adapt to new business requirements. For IT organizations, an area of increasing focus is meeting corporate sustainability goals. IDC observes that the growing interest in sustainability is reframing how organizations think about IT asset usage, life cycles, and reducing costs.
Organizations also are adopting circular economy (CE) principles that support industrial processes and economic development programs rooted in restorative or regenerative concepts such as reuse, refurbish, and recycle. When resources remain "in the circle" for as long as possible, they return the greatest value.
