Case Study: a major Canadian energy provider cuts IT asset disposition costs by 48% with Compugen's Green4Good program

Major Canadian Energy Provider cuts IT asset disposition costs 48% with Compugen

The customer, a major Canadian energy provider, faced an inefficient and costly IT asset disposition process. Their existing method resulted in high shipping costs due to unnecessary bulk from low-value items and a significant loss in potential asset recovery value because laptops were frequently missing critical adaptors. They partnered with Compugen and its Green4Good program to modernize this process.

Compugen implemented a tailored solution that redesigned the collection and sorting workflow. This included separating high-value assets from low-value peripherals, introducing measures to ensure adaptors were returned with laptops, and improving end-user communication. As a result, the customer achieved a 48% reduction in per-asset processing and shipping costs, recovered higher value from refurbishable devices, and made significant progress toward their sustainability goals.
