Device lifecycle management is your strategy for handling employee equipment from acquisition to disposal. It’s how you ensure your entire team has the right equipment to achieve their full potential without straining your resources.
As more companies go remote and adopt a remote model, device management has become more complex. Modern strategies must consider how to deliver equipment to multiple locations, manage device inventory from afar, and maintain compliance with local regulations. You must also safeguard your system from security threats, as remote device management leaves you more vulnerable to data breaches.
Many tech companies outsource these tasks to IT management services like Deel. We can handle all the logistics and compliance while you focus on high-level strategy.
