Asset recovery, data destruction and disposition
Who they are
Direct Resource Management specializes in repurposing retired data center equipment — decommissioning racks and servers either on-premise at your facility or at their own, handling cage cleanouts, inventory reconciliation, data destruction, resale and responsible recycling. Cloud providers and hyperscalers use them for custom, scalable decommissioning programs, including projects staffed on the customer’s floor and purpose-built centers for large recovery efforts.
What they do in a Veridyn program
Everything that removes equipment from service. Decommissioning and de-racking. Data destruction. Remarketing and resale. Recycling. Reverse and forward logistics. Procurement, when the floor you clear needs refilling.
Why we selected them
On-premise data destruction — degaussing, crushing, erasing and shredding, performed while the equipment is still in your custody, across disk arrays, SANs, NAS, magnetic drives, SSDs and backup tapes. Nothing data-bearing has to leave your building for you to be certain it’s gone.
And recovery depth. Refurbishment and parts harvesting return more than straight recycling does, and their remarketing team works the secondary market rather than settling for scrap value. Decommissioning should be a line item that returns money, not one that costs it.
Chain of custody
DRM operates a client portal for tracking projects and inventory. Chain-of-custody visibility is the thing that actually keeps people awake about decommissioning, so we make sure you have it directly rather than through us.
Certifications
Maintains rigorous industry standards for data destruction, environmental compliance, and worker health and safety, operating to R2v3, e-Stewards, NAID AAA, and ISO requirements.
Single accountability
Every Veridyn engagement runs on one contract, one schedule and one point of accountability — whoever is holding the tools.
