Case Study: Human-I-T scales e-waste diversion and device distribution with Asana

human-I-T diverts 15.1 million pounds of e-waste with Asana

Human-I-T, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the digital divide, faced the complex challenge of coordinating its large-scale Device Renewal Pipeline. They needed a scalable system to manage the pickup, processing, and delivery of donated electronics from over 700 corporate donors. Tracking each device through five distinct refurbishment stages demanded strong coordination, and delays directly hurt their community impact and donor satisfaction.

By implementing Asana, Human-I-T created a centralized operational backbone. They used Asana to create a digital twin for every donated device, tracking it through its entire lifecycle with automations and rules. This solution streamlined their workflows, enhanced accountability, and provided real-time reporting dashboards. The results were significant: Human-I-T diverted 15.1 million pounds of e-waste, distributed 523,000 technology products to people in need, and generated $20 million in revenue to fuel their mission.
