Managed Device Rental

Pre-configured, manufacturer-direct devices that eliminate supply chain risk and simplify ISO 27001 asset management.

Your perimeter extends to every endpoint. Unmanaged device procurement introduces supply chain risk that most organisations never quantify: tampered firmware, missing encryption, unpatched images, and devices that arrive with no identity in your tenant. When an ISO 27001 auditor demands proof of hardware integrity before it touches your network, “we trust the reseller” is not an answer. Manufacturer-direct procurement with pre-configured enrolment ensures every device is a secured, compliant asset from purchase order to first boot.

Foundation (Plan 1)

  • Manufacturer-Direct Supply — Devices sourced directly from Lenovo and Dell, eliminating intermediary supply chain risk and ensuring hardware integrity from factory to desk
  • Intune Auto-Enrolment — Devices arrive pre-configured for Windows Autopilot and Intune enrolment, automatically joining your tenant with your specific security policies and identity management applied before first boot
  • BitLocker Pre-Encryption — Full-disk encryption enabled before the device leaves the staging environment, ensuring data-at-rest protection from day one
  • Asset Tagging and Registration — Every device is tagged with a unique asset identifier and registered in your CMDB before dispatch, providing complete chain of custody
  • Standardised Security Baseline — Devices are deployed with a GMS-hardened baseline aligned to CIS benchmarks and your actual tenant configuration: Defender for Endpoint, attack surface reduction rules, and application control policies — monitored for drift
  • Flexible Rental Terms — Monthly rental model that converts capital expenditure to operational expenditure, with refresh cycles aligned to your hardware lifecycle policy

Added in Lifecycle Management (Plan 2)

  • Scheduled Refresh Cycles — Proactive device replacement at 36 or 48 months, ensuring hardware remains within warranty and within your risk appetite for component failure
  • Secure Decommissioning — End-of-life devices undergo certified data destruction (NIST 800-88 compliant wipe) with a certificate of destruction provided for your audit evidence
  • ITAD Compliance — IT Asset Disposition managed through certified recycling partners, with full chain-of-custody documentation from return to destruction
  • Break-Fix and Advance Replacement — Failed devices replaced within SLA, with the returned device securely wiped and deregistered from your tenant before entering the repair cycle
  • ROI Reporting — Quarterly reporting on device fleet health, refresh forecasting, and total cost of ownership versus outright purchase, demonstrating ongoing value to finance and procurement stakeholders
