Pickups fit the school year, student data is destroyed to NIST 800-88 in support of FERPA, and the resale value comes back to the district with the records your business office needs. Five stages, one point of contact.
Calendar Planning
We plan collection around your calendar and your E-rate funded refresh cycle. Old devices leave over summer, winter, or spring break, and new ones are staged and imaged before classes start. One plan covers every campus, so your technology team is not coordinating building by building.
- Scheduled around breaks
- Every campus on one plan
- Staging and imaging before the first day
Secure Collection
Chromebooks, laptops, tablets, charging carts, and classroom displays are collected from each campus in tracked vehicles. Chain of custody is documented from the first pickup, so no student device goes unaccounted for between the classroom and our floor.
- Pickups at every campus
- Tracked vehicles
- Chain of custody from pickup
Data Sanitization
Every device that held student records is wiped to NIST 800-88 and verified, or shredded. Your district can show the board, parents, and auditors that FERPA protected education records were destroyed before any device was reused or recycled. Shredding is done in house by Coretek 360. It is not yet covered by our R2v3 certificate, and we are actively working to add it.
- Wiped to NIST 800-88 and verified
- Shredded when media must not survive
- A certificate for every serial number
Refurbish or Recycle
Chromebooks, laptops, and tablets with life left in them are refurbished and resold through our sales channels, with the value returned to your district. Devices past reuse go to R2v3 certified downstream processors, as a RIOS Certified Recycler.
- Working devices refurbished
- Value returned to your district
- R2v3 certified recycling
Audit Ready Reporting
A final report lists every device by serial number with a certificate of data destruction. Your technology director can close fixed asset records, and your business office has answers ready for the board and the state auditor.
- Every serial number accounted for
- Certificate of data destruction per device
- Records for your board and auditors
