As corporations upgrade their PCs to stay current with the latest technology, they are left with computer systems that are functional, but "homeless." PlanITROI has found that the associates who have been using these PCs are comfortable with the technology, and are often very interested in purchasing it for home use. Now, rather than discarding this older technology, PlanITROI offers a simple and complete Employee Purchase Program that allows your associates to purchase their PC and peripherals at an affordable price, while you recover value on the old equipment as a return on your investment. PlanITROI manages the entire process for you from cradle to sale!

Why should you consider PlanITROI's Employee Purchase Program?

Our Employee Resale Program allows you to sell your excess or obsolete computer inventory, refurbished and warranted by PlanITROI, to your associates. PlanITROI eliminates the need to use your valuable IT resources to manage the intricacies of a corporate resale program. As one of our core competencies, we specialize in managing the complete resale program, including refurbishing and re-marketing the equipment, processing the sales transactions and managing all customer warranty and service issues. The bottom line is there's no easier way to maximize your return on investment, while increasing your employees' productivity and satisfaction.

Here’s how easy it is to use

PlanITROI’s Employee Purchase Program

Step 1: Auditing of Excess and Obsolete Equipment:

PlanITROI will help you compile a list of equipment that you would like to offer to your associates, or we can use a current inventory list, if you have one.

Customers need to de-install, pack and prepare the employee resale units for shipping back to PlanITROI. However, very often clients prefer to have PlanITROI handle the logistics of this process. PlanITROI will customize a program to take care of any special needs, including the delivery of packing materials, the coordination of picking up equipment at single or multiple locations, and all transportation services.

Step 2: Scheduling & Time Frames:

PlanITROI puts together a complete schedule of events that takes into account:

When equipment will be ready for shipment to PlanITROI;
Time to refurbish the equipment;
Dates and types of promotions to employees;
Actual sale dates;
Delivery dates;
Payment schedule for the transactions;
Clean up of excess inventory.

It will take approximately 1 week for PlanITROI to set up the dedicated incoming phone numbers and web site. It is then up to the OEM and corporate end user to supply the list of equipment, approve pricing and providing access to associates.

Step 3: Pricing Analysis. Working with you, we determine:

What expenses will be involved for PlanITROI to refurbish each unit, including shipping, parts, labor, packing and administration.
At what price the equipment should be resold to your employees; and
What your return on investment will be from PlanITROI.

Once your equipment arrives at PlanITROI's testing and configuration facility, it will be carefully audited and inspected. The information will be placed into a database and PlanITROI will create a detailed Volume Summary Report (VSR). The report will contain such information as manufacturer, model number, serial number, asset tag number, description and condition of the equipment received. If you prefer to roll out the equipment over an extended period of time, PlanITROI can publish a Volume Summary Report as needed.

Step 4: Sales & Marketing Process:

First:	We (Corporate End-user, OEM & PlanITROI) announce our exclusive employee resale program, and send out information which details the limited quantities and attractive pricing on used and new equipment. We also highlight the list with a number of special offers to generate interest from the associates. In order for the associates to participate, they must fill out a form indicating their interest. This form will be created by PlanITROI and provided via Promotional Flyer, Intranet, web site, or Email. We will stress that they should return the form to PlanITROI as soon as possible. Past experience indicates that two weeks is an adequate amount of time for your associates to return their forms. We then can measure the response.
Second:	We send out a complete list of products and special offers, with information on how to order, to all interested employees. Options: If response is more than expected, we can set up a lottery system on a first come, first served basis, based on the date of their response to PlanITROI. If the response is poor, we then market the program via Flyer, Intranet, Web site or Email.
Third:	Employees return their orders with payment (personal check, money order or credit card) via mail, Intranet, Web site or Email to PlanITROI. PlanITROI processes and confirms order.
Fourth:	PlanITROI delivers equipment, fully warranted and supported by PlanITROI and OEM, to designated site at the company, or to the individual associate’s homes.
Fifth:	PlanITROI will have a Quality Assurance Questionnaire with each unit. This questionnaire will help PlanITROI assure that the equipment has been received in good working order to the associate’s complete satisfaction.

Step 5: Payment:

PlanITROI will issue a check directly to both parties (OEM & Corporate End-user) after all payments from associates have cleared. Corporate end-user can either have a check in the company's name, or the value of the equipment can be applied toward the purchase of new products and services from the OEM.

Payment will be based on the following (predetermined costs) formula:

Sale Price - PlanITROI costs to refurbish & market - OEM or Corp. End User Costs =
GP to OEM or Corporate End User. A check will be cut after all payments from associates have cleared.

Step 6: After Sale Inventory Clean Up Options:

PlanITROI will purchase all excess equipment from both parties after sale is complete. The price will be negotiated between parties or based upon PlanITROI’s monthly trade-in pricing for that month. PlanITROI will be invoiced net 30 days from the date of settlement.
