In an era where technology is the backbone of business, managing hardware assets effectively is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. Yet, many global enterprises still struggle with poor visibility into their hardware lifecycle, leading to unplanned costs, sudden failures, and inefficient capital planning.


This is where REDE Consulting steps in—bringing deep IT Asset Management (ITAM) expertise to help enterprises gain clarity, control, and confidence across their hardware estate.

The Hardware Lifecycle Challenge

IT assets have a lifespan—and every phase, from procurement to retirement, carries financial and operational implications. Without proper lifecycle tracking, organizations face:

  • Surprise end-of-life failures

  • Unbudgeted refresh cycles

  • Security vulnerabilities from unsupported hardware

  • Inaccurate depreciation and asset valuation

  • Compliance gaps

When hardware planning is based on guesswork, business performance takes a hit.


REDE + ServiceNow ITAM: A Strategic Advantage

At REDE, we empower global organizations to move from reactive to proactive asset planning. Leveraging the robust capabilities of ServiceNow ITAM, we deliver a centralized, automated view of your hardware lifecycle.


Here’s how we help:

  1. Lifecycle Insights: We set up automated tracking for every hardware asset—from onboarding to disposal—so you know what’s aging, what’s up for refresh, and what needs decommissioning.

  2. Optimized Refresh Planning: With accurate age and usage data, we enable our clients to forecast refresh cycles well in advance—avoiding last-minute spending and downtime.

  3. Budget Clarity: Our customized dashboards help finance and IT teams align on future hardware investments based on real asset performance, not assumptions.
