MDSi – Providing a Competitive Advantage for Going Green  
 

With the volume of technology products and associated materials growing daily, it is becoming increasingly important for companies to consider environmentally conscious alternatives for handling their products and materials.

Reuse of technology assets significantly reduces pollution and solid waste, and is an important practice for all technology companies to consider. MDSi helps companies exceed environmental objectives, such as maximizing the use of environmentally preferable products and using recovered materials and reducing waste.

MDSi accomplishes this objective through leading the market in “reverse logistics” services. For years, MDSi has assisted large clients in managing the back-end of the supply chain and prioritizing redeploy, repair, resale and disposal prior to purchasing new acquisitions.

Using reconditioned or refurbished IT and Central Office equipment is also a viable means of waste prevention and reduction. Extending the useful lives of existing products leads to reuse and reduces the solid waste stream.

MDSi works with today’s leading companies to redeploy, repair, resell and dispose of their existing technology assets – helping them not only become more environmentally conscious, but more fiscally productive.

According to a recent report by leading research firm Innovest, companies with sophisticated and comprehensive climate change strategies have financially outperformed their competitors over the last three years. “In the longer term, the out-performance potential will become even greater as the capital markets become more fully sensitized to the financial and competitive consequences of environmental and climate change considerations.”

Contrary to popular belief, refurbished or reconditioned technology presents no greater risk than new equipment. Quality-control programs and warranties or maintenance initiatives offered by the provider mitigate risk.

The Carbon Beta and Equity Performance study of 1,500 companies found that there is a “strong, positive, and growing correlation between industrial companies’ sustainability in general, and climate change in particular, and their competitiveness and financial performance”.
