Multi-national technology company IBM, Armonk, N.Y., has been manufacturing computer equipment for as long as almost any company in the world and, therefore, has been faced with how to best handle end-of-life electronics for as long as any other company.
For the past 12 years, IBM’s Global Asset Recovery Service (GARS) has been the key division within IBM tasked with effectively managing the wide range of end-of-life equipment yielded globally by IBM’s manufacturing plants, offices and leasing operations.
According to GARS Senior Engineer and Senior Program Manager Ed Grenchus, IBM has learned a great deal about cost-effectively and responsibly handling end-of-life electronics, but the learning process does not stop since technology changes so rapidly.
