CASE STUDIES
Recovering Value and Generating Employee Goodwill
THE "QUICK FIX" THAT ISN'T A FIX AT ALL.

Challenge: A company reorganizes and finds itself saddled with "surplus" and "out-of-service" information technology (IT) equipment. Management turns to a liquidator to "eliminate the problem", netting only pennies on the dollar.

The Ombligo Solution: Surplus IT equipment is not a problem to be eliminated, it is a source of capital to be recovered. Our extensive network of sales channels – including direct sales channels and online outlets generates maximum value from every asset.

"STICK TO YOUR KNITTING"

Challenge: Faced with surplus IT equipment, a manufacturer decides to dispose of its assets, “we’ll do it ourselves.” Trying to reach buyers proves enormously time-consuming since this is not the company’s core business. It becomes apparent that the time and expense of this do-it-yourself effort far exceeds the actual return.

The Ombligo Solution: Our specialized logistics process and extensive sales network are specifically designed to derive maximum value from idle assets. Ombligo provides clients with superior return on idle assets, with the cost-effectiveness and simplicity of true outsourcing.

HOW A "WIN-WIN" BECOMES A BIG LOSS

Challenge: An organization with “out-of-service” IT equipment initiates an Employee Purchase Program with the goal of a “win-win” scenario. Employees would get discounted IT equipment while the organization would recover some of its investment. The reality is managing a program of this nature is a time-consuming and detail oriented task for which staff members do not have the time or the experience. The company exposes itself to new liabilities, including, data eradication, software licensing compliance, sales tax remittance, packaging and shipping, etc.

The Ombligo Solution: Ombligo designs, implements and manages comprehensive employee purchase programs. Our redeployment services encompass detailed inventory management, logistics and certified software installation. Our complete outsourced solution generates priceless goodwill among our clients’ employees while simultaneously helping our clients recover some of their investment in IT equipment.
