For a limited time, DMD is offering complimentary access to the 2026 Gartner(R) Market Guide for ITAD available on its website. AI-Enabled ITAD Moves from Concept to Enterprise Execution DMD is accelerating investment in platform modernization to lead this next phase of ITAD transformation. "In early 2026, we migrated DMD onto an AI-ready enterprise architecture designed for end-to-end data connectivity," said Aaron Zeper, CEO of DMD Systems Recovery. "Dmdsystems is deploying operational AI agents that enhance grading accuracy, improve resale forecasting, and elevate decision quality across the IT asset lifecycle. Over the past year, DMD has expanded its programmatic ITAD model across data center, end-user compute, and mobility, embedding governance directly into client ITSM systems.

Through centralized oversight and standardized global protocols, every asset is managed with documented chain-of-custody, certified data destruction, and verified environmental compliance. With audit-ready transparency and disciplined execution, DMD enables customers to materially reduce risk - safeguarding corporate reputation, regulatory standing, and shareholder value. Reuse First(R): Aligning ITAD With Scope 3 and Circular Economy Goals As stated by Gartner, "ITAD processes and service providers have gained CxO attention as sustainability and the reuse of IT assets and components helps mitigate Scope 3 emissions and attain sustainability/e-waste targets. Sustainability's focus on reuse is extending the lives of IT assets, to the benefit of IT budgets and the environment." As a Certified B Corporation, DMD prioritizes its Reuse First(R) ITAD model, emphasizing secure redeployment, resale, and extended asset life before recycling. What This Means for Enterprises According to Gartner, "Sourcing, procurement and vendor management leaders can leverage this market guide to navigate the ITAD market, assess AI's benefits and potential risks and identify representative ITAD providers." Dmdsystems believe DMD's inclusion as a Gartner(R) Representative Provider reflects its commitment to delivering measurable customer outcomes - reduced data and environmental risk, improved financial recovery, and stronger alignment with sustainability goals.
