Case Study
Delivering Cost Savings Through a Refurbished IT Device Program
Premier Technical Services Group (PTSG), a provider of specialist services to the construction and facilities management sectors, has embedded sustainability into its operational decision-making through a targeted IT asset management initiative.
The company has introduced a refurbished device program after undertaking a detailed assessment of its end-user hardware procurement and replacement practices. The review identified opportunities to extend the useful life of equipment by incorporating refurbished devices into its technology estate where appropriate.
The program is expected to avoid 64,000+ kilograms of CO₂ emissions per year and forecast to save roughly £100,000 in costs to PTSG in its first year of implementation.1 Importantly, these efficiencies are expected to be achieved without compromising operational effectiveness or cybersecurity standards, as all refurbished devices undergo full configuration, testing, and security hardening prior to deployment.
By optimizing asset lifecycles and reducing electronic waste, PTSG demonstrates how operational efficiency initiatives can simultaneously improve a company’s cost profile and reduce environmental impact.
- Projected 64K+ kg of CO2 to be avoided each year1
- Forecast ~£100,000 saved in the first year1
