In addition, corporate priorities have shifted to address environmental challenges, and regulatory changes are impacting the ways in which we approach <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/the-environmental-impact-of-cloud-computing-data-storage\/\">e-waste<\/a>. Here\u2019s a closer look into the biggest recent ITAD trends, as well as what we may come to expect for the future.<\/p>\n<h2>The Demand for Distributed Retrieval Programs Grows<\/h2>\n<p>Since remote work became the norm in 2020, many companies have continued to offer work-from-home arrangements. Unfortunately, getting IT equipment back from remote workers has become a growing challenge for organizations. While it\u2019s important for reducing data risks and maximizing the value of <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/a-guide-to-storing-it-equipment-prior-to-disposal\/\">IT assets<\/a> that can be repurposed, companies can\u2019t go through the same channels for retrieval that they could with onsite workers. As such, there\u2019s a growing demand for distributed retrieval programs from ITAD providers.<\/p>\n<h2>Labor Shortages Are Affecting ITAD<\/h2>\n<p>Staffing shortages are affecting nearly every industry, and ITAD is no exception. Many organizations are also experiencing shortages in their IT departments, which means decommissioning projects may take longer to carry out with limited support. It\u2019s therefore a good idea to begin planning any upcoming ITAD projects as far in advance as possible.<\/p>\n<h2>ESG Remains a Corporate Priority<\/h2>\n<p>With company values and actions increasingly under the lens of consumers, ESG remains a critical priority for organizations. Companies are taking a more thoughtful approach to handling matters that could affect the environment, which includes how their IT equipment is handled at the end of its lifespan. They\u2019re also seeking out vendors who share the same values and ESG principles, including prioritizing sustainable <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/promoting-sustainability-in-telcos-through-a-circular-economy\/\">ITAD solutions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>R2 Standards Get an Update<\/h2>\n<p>After more than a decade, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsf.org\/knowledge-library\/responsible-recycling-r2\">Responsible Recycling\u00ae (R2) standard<\/a> has been updated. The certification in electronics <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/podcast\/navigating-european-legislation-for-sustainability\/\">sustainability<\/a> is now broken up into two categories: core requirements that apply to all R2 facilities, as well as specialty process requirements that apply to facilities that perform specific processes. By June 2023, all previous R2 certificates will expire. <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/how-quantum-supports-r2-compliance\/\">Working with an R2 certified company<\/a> will continue to be important for companies, as the certification demonstrates commitment to industry-leading standards for data storage and sanitation, as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/ghg-reduction-how-quantum-can-help-you-reach-your-sustainability-goals-while-avoiding-greenwashing\/\">recycling<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Logistics Faces Increased Scrutiny<\/h2>\n<p>Logistics is an important link in the <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/what-are-the-benefits-of-quantums-customer-portal\/\">chain of custody<\/a> process, and it\u2019s one that introduces certain risks. Understandably, companies are seeking assurance that their assets will be transported safely and successfully. ITAD providers are expected to have the highest levels of security in place during transportation, such as sealed vehicles, satellite GPS tracking and background checks for employees. They\u2019re also expected to provide consistent, detailed communication through each step of the disposition process. Since hacking and similar <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/quantums-reuse-recycling-process-a-step-by-step-guide\/\">data security<\/a> risks are more of a threat than ever before, it\u2019s imperative to trust only providers with the most stringent security measures in place.<\/p>\n<h2>Data Destruction Is Becoming More Complex<\/h2>\n<p>Since technology is evolving, one might think <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/case-studies\/how-quantum-works-with-retailers\/\">data destruction<\/a> would become simpler. In reality, with smaller devices and more data being exchanged via the cloud, finding and destroying data can be complex and time-consuming. Yet, preventing a <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/common-myths-about-hard-drive-destruction\/\">data breach<\/a> is more important than ever, too. Hacking software is becoming increasingly sophisticated, and companies have more personal data than ever. Companies will therefore need to work with only the most trusted ITAD providers who can ensure the safe handling of their hard drives and other equipment with sensitive data.<\/p>\n<p>As a leading <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/the-importance-of-electronics-recycling-in-your-companys-esg-policy\/\">ITAD provider<\/a>, Quantum stays at the forefront of industry trends and is up-to-date with all <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/blog\/how-to-avoid-fraud-with-better-it-security-and-data-destruction-practices\/\">best practices<\/a> and certifications to ensure the highest level of security and efficiency when retiring your IT equipment. <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/itad\/\">Click here<\/a> to find out more about how we can manage your <a href=\"https:\/\/quantumlifecycle.com\/en_CA\/case-studies\/how-quantum-works-with-the-vaping-industry\/\">end-of-life<\/a> IT assets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As with virtually all industries, IT asset disposition (ITAD) has been affected by many of the factors shaping the post-COVID world.
