According to Gartner's 2010 Magic Quadrant for North America Information Technology Asset Disposition, a comprehensive assessment that focuses on the capabilities of U.S.- and Canadian-based vendors, Intechra is positioned in the Leaders quadrant. The Magic Quadrant, which represents Gartner's initial coverage of the ITAD industry, addresses ITAD providers that Gartner believes have the approximate size, capabilities and delivered track record to justify consideration for their clients' "shortlist".
The assessment is based on an organization's suitability and the solutions implemented to address the challenges faced by the industry. It evaluates each company against the criteria of "Completeness of Vision" and "Ability to Execute", assessing their relevance to the changing conditions of the market. Gartner noted that providers in the Leaders quadrant "execute well within the market, obtain a robust vision and are well positioned for the future". Additionally, providers listed in the Leaders quadrant are characterized by "financial stability, a clear and consistent commitment to the ITAD market, comprehensive customer support, broader service portfolios and larger market presence".
"Intechra's standard-setting data security and destruction practices give Fortune 100 companies across the world the confidence they need to trust that their sensitive information is protected," said Michael Profit, CEO of Intechra. "Our focus on providing customers with the most reliable, safe and environmentally-friendly ITAD services set us apart in this industry.
"We believe Intechra's positioning in the Leaders quadrant by Gartner further solidifies our organization as an ITAD industry leader," said Profit. The company's geographic footprint and robust security and environmental standards were cited as support for their position in the Leader's quadrant.
Intechra is not only one of the largest of the independent, ITAD-focused providers; it is also among the most vertically integrated. Its six owned and operated processing facilities in strategic locations throughout the U.S. and global network of partnerships minimize logistics costs and the use of subcontractors - providing clients with confidence and peace of mind. And unlike most ITAD vendors, Intechra maintains an international presence, allowing the organization to influence and establish standards for responsible recycling to be promoted around the world.
As a solid supporter of robust security and environmental standards, Intechra is able to provide unsurpassed service to the most security-conscious and environmentally conscious corporations. Intechra maintains complete control over the entire IT asset disposition process - from start-to-finish - to ensure proper indemnification. The company's logistics network offers a highly transparent, secure chain of custody for clients' IT assets. Those assets remain in Intechra's possession throughout the transportation process until they arrive at an Intechra processing center or recycling facility. This unbroken chain of custody is also an important part of assuring compliance with data security and environmental management laws.
