Cascade Asset Management corporate office - Madison, WIMADISON, WI – November 12, 2024 – Cascade Asset Management (Cascade), a national leader in information technology asset disposition (ITAD) solutions, announced it was named in the newly released 2024 Gartner Market Guide for IT Asset Disposition. The guide, published by globally renowned market research firm Gartner, profiled thirteen ITAD providers including Cascade.

According to Gartner, “Sourcing, procurement and vendor management leaders can use this Market Guide to navigate the ITAD market, assess growing compliance risks and identify representative ITAD providers.” The report offers key findings, market insights, and actionable recommendations. One of the observations Gartner highlights is, “Sustainability requirements are compounding the ongoing ITAD challenges of data security and sound reuse/recycling.” To help address these issues, Gartner advises, “Focus your ITAD process not only on cost, but also on the dual and material risks to your brand equity of improper ITAD-related data security and recycling.”

This marks the fifth instance* of Cascade’s inclusion in the Gartner Market Guide. Neil Peters-Michaud, CEO of Cascade, expressed, “We feel being listed once again in this esteemed report is a testament to our efforts in providing ITAD solutions that align with the highest data security and sustainability standards. Maintaining industry certifications, providing sustainability metrics tailored to our clients, recovering value from used IT assets, and maintaining top-rated customer service are all part of our approach to excellence.”

Cascade supports businesses and institutions in highly regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, insurance, government, and technology. Due to strict regulations regarding privacy and personal data protection in these industries, it is crucial that companies ensure compliance by partnering with an ITAD company with data security credentials.
