Asset recovery
What is "Asset Recovery"
Asset Recovery, also called investment recovery or resource
recovery, is the process of maximizing the value of unused or end
of life assets through effective reuse or divestment. Both large and
small organizations practice asset recovery at some level with the
end goal of obtaining the greatest possible return from the asset.
Asset Recovery is also used to describe the process of liquidating
excess stock of healthy companies, refurbished items and
equipment returned at the end of a lease. The asset recovery
process has three main parts: idle asset identification,
redeployment, and divestment.
Divestment
This is the process of either selling, scrapping, recycling, donating,
or disposing an asset. Divestment involves removing the asset from
an organization's books. When this is done effectively, the
organization obtains capital that can be placed back into the
business. In addition, a good asset sale produces revenue and
boosts profits. Donations also build goodwill and deliver tax
benefits. The type of divestment selected will depend on the type of
asset, its fair value, and demand for the asset in the marketplace.

successfull Asset Recovery company:
1.SECURITY: sanitize, destroy and removal of trace of origin.
2.RECOVERY: refurbish, remarket, deployment in educational
institutes and donations.
3.TRANSPORT: de-install, pack, transport and warehouse.
