Appraisal & Valuation: We have over 20 years of valuation and appraisal experience and can prepare desktop opinions of value (this opinion is not an appraisal) or complete appraisal with on-site inspection of your equipment. An appraisal will determine the market driven value of the technology assets, regardless of cost, book value, accrued depreciation, or other artificial factors. The appraisal will answer the simple question "what revenues would be achieved if these technology assets were to be offered and sold to the open market". Our valuation services focus on current market and industry trends, proper appraisal methodology, and include recommended disposition / marketing methods.

Audit Reports: As equipment is received it is inventoried and audited recording the manufacturer, model, serial number, and general condition of the equipment. An audit report is prepared and is available to you via email or hard copy.

For unique and specialized equipment we utilized factory trained technicians to audit and service equipment on a case-by-case basis.
