Chain of Custody
Security and chain of custody are a primary tenet at CNE, with every step of the IT lifecycle process traceable and auditable. Leveraging our proprietary IT system, all assets are scanned upon receipt with detailed information captured along their processing journey, which includes make, model, configuration, capacity, testing, erasure status, location, etc. All information collected is attached to an assets profile, providing a complete picture of the device including all refurbishment and data erasure, as well as final disposition method.
Reconciliation & Audit Support
Our proprietary IT system manages the reconciliation process for all equipment received by CNE. Upon receipt, all shipments are inspected and scanned. Since all information is digitally tracked, our system provides a dashboard and reporting capability to compare incoming shipments and inventory. In addition, CNE's system provides supporting documentation and manifests to aid in the reconciliation and auditing process.
Settlement
