We are in an era where hybrid and remote work aren’t just perks; they’re the new operational standard. Yet for most organizations, the behind-the-scenes complexity of equipping a distributed workforce often goes unnoticed until something breaks. Workwize recognized this challenge early and built its entire model around solving it. It doesn’t just manage devices; it manages the entire hardware experience, from onboarding to offboarding, across global borders, with zero friction.
Workwize redefines IT logistics for hybrid and remote teams by uniting every stage of the device lifecycle from procurement to deployment, management, retrieval, refurbishment, disposal, and storage under a single, automated SaaS platform. Enabling more than 25,000 users and managing 100,000+ devices across 100+ countries, it simplifies IT hardware workflows for multinational teams.
The first step in Workwize’s onboarding procedure is IT procurement. Businesses can buy or rent hardware from hundreds of suppliers spread across several continents using a single dashboard. By centralizing orders, screening vendors, automating contract terms, and eliminating hidden costs, it handles complexity like import taxes and customs so IT teams don’t have to.
After being purchased, devices travel through international warehouses to reach deployment networks. After being pre-configured with security features and registered with your MDM system (like Apple Business Manager or Intune), each laptop is typically shipped to employees within a few days of purchase. Deployments synchronize with HRIS or Azure AD, tying provisioning to real-time HR events for zero-touch executions.
As devices enter daily use, Workwize’s IT asset management suite tracks every unit in real-time. It logs location, user, repair history, and warranty status; all presented in a unified interface. MDM integration automates security updates and remote wipes. International dispatch networks handle replacements and repairs, but automated alerts notify IT teams when maintenance is needed or warranties are about to expire.
Employees don’t have to wait for IT support. They can use Workwize’s self-service portal to troubleshoot existing devices or request new equipment. Pre-approved catalogs prevent policy infractions while complete tracking and automated approvals expedite the IT process. Shifting the workload from the help desk to the platform helps businesses save thousands of hours on time-consuming tasks.
The platform’s offboarding process is equally smooth when employees leave or devices expire. Kits with pre-paid labels and secure packaging are sent to users anywhere in the world. Retrieved assets are logged upon return and processed for refurbishment, redeployment, recycling, or secure disposal, cleaned and wiped in compliance with local laws and industry standards.
Handling the physical logistics is made simpler by Workwize’s global warehousing and dispatch infrastructure. Laid across key geographies– EU, UK, U.S., Canada, India, Australia, Brazil, the Philippines, and Mexico –its network ensures that inventory is locally stocked, drastically reducing delays and customs complications. Additionally, it stores returned devices, enabling IT departments to reuse hardware without placing needless orders.
At Workwize, we’re creating the workplace of the future; one in which global teams are empowered, IT logistics are automated, and every employee has seamless access to the tools they require, no matter where they are. — Michiel Meyer, CEO
Workwize uses automation to increase efficiency at every level. When asset tracking, HR, identity systems, and MDM are combined, smooth workflows are produced that remove administrative overhead, manual compliance checks, and duplication. As a result, IT departments cut manual labor by over 40%, and businesses can save up to $50,000 a year on shipping.
Data on procurement speed, device lifespan, repair turnaround, offboarding rates, and disposal results are all recorded by the platform’s analytics layer. Finance, IT, and executive teams are empowered to manage hardware spending and compliance without guesswork thanks to dashboards that visualize lifecycle metrics, cost per asset, utilization trends, and sustainability impacts.
Compliance and security are built in. Workwize guarantees encrypted data, certified disposal, and traceable asset histories by adhering to GDPR, ISO 27001, and SOC 2. The platform’s event logs generate comprehensive audit trails required for internal governance, and asset refurbishment procedures adhere to quality and data-wipe standards.
More than just a tool, Workwize is a global IT logistics partner that removes the headache of scattered hardware. It transforms device management from a fragmented, region-by-region issue into a streamlined, competitive advantage. Onboarding is shortened from hours to minutes, equipment errors virtually disappear, and IT recovers hours each week. In doing so, Workwize positions itself as a top provider of workplace technology solutions for remote and hybrid teams, offering solutions that are relevant, real, and built for the future global workplace.
