Savvy IT executives know to look to the secondary equipment market to
stretch their capital budgets. By working with the right vendor,
companies can secure pre-owned and refurbished equipment for a fraction
of the price of new and still get extended warranties and post-sale
support.
BBC Technology Solutions (BBC) is a Cincinnati-based provider of
certified pre-owned business class equipment helping organizations from
contact centers to behavioral health care agencies, nonprofit
organizations, and schools across North America save thousands of
dollars on their equipment needs.
“Obviously, saving money on IT equipment is highly-desired, but even
more important is making sure we secure dependable, high-quality
products, such as Dell, Hewlett-Packard, and IBM that will run for
longer periods of time, as compared with consumer-level equipment, and
are backed by warranties and service,” said Mitchell Swindell, Chief
Technology Officer at NOVO1. NOVO1 provides customer experience
solutions and recently expanded operations into three new sites. The
expansion required an investment of more than a thousand computers and
LCD monitors. “We saved more than 40% by purchasing computers and
monitors through BBC. All equipment was warrantied and backed-up with
solid service. They have become the 'go-to' vendor for our company’s IT
needs,” added Swindell.
Another example is Murtis Taylor Human Services Systems, which recently
needed help. The Cleveland-based community service non-profit agency was
strapped for resources and unable to afford new business-class laptops
priced between $1,500 and $1,700 apiece. “We secured 40 pre-owned
business class laptops for our case workers through BBC,” said Murtis
Taylor’s MIS Director Bob Cerny. “The lower-cost solution was half the
cost of new equipment and provided our staff with the tools and support
they needed to carry out our critical mission,” Cerny added.
“We take a great deal of personal pride in helping organizations secure
a new business-class desktop computer valued at $985 for less than $250.
Multiplied over hundreds of machines, this has resulted in significant
savings for an organization. And the savings can be redirected into
other aspects of your business,” says BBC Technology Solutions CEO
Michael Sutter. “BBC is now also an official Microsoft Registered
Refurbisher (NASDAQ:MSFT). With this certification, the company can sell
computers, laptops, and tablets with operating systems, such as
Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Preloaded to save organizations time
from having to image and load their own operating system.”
In addition to equipment savings, BBC Technology Solutions works with a
number of Fortune 1000 firms to properly wipe all data from equipment to
Department of Defense (DOD 5220.22-M) standards, and properly dispose of
unwanted equipment. This will allow corporations to turn their unwanted
computer equipment into unfound capital. For more information about BBC
