Dispose of obsolete equipment without interrupting operations

Strategic Planning for Equipment Replacement

The removal of obsolete equipment requires detailed planning to guarantee the continuity of operations. Firstly, it is essential to carry out an up-to-date technical inventory, listing all assets that are beyond the useful life cycle defined by the standards of the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT) and the recommendations of the National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO).

Implementing Parallel Routines

To avoid interruptions, the installation of new devices must take place in parallel with ongoing operations. The creation of temporary test and validation environments ensures that the new infrastructure works in accordance with the technical specifications, according to the guidelines of the NBR ISO/IEC 27002 standard, guaranteeing continuity and information security until the transition is complete.

Management of Equipment Disposal

Environmentally correct disposal is mandatory according to CONAMA Resolution 401/2008, which establishes criteria for the management of electronic waste. It is recommended to use specialized services for the collection of electronic waste, which ensure proper disposal, avoiding environmental contamination and legal penalties.

Secure Sanitization of Storage Devices

When replacing equipment containing data storage media, such as hard drives and media, secure destruction of the data must be carried out to comply with the General Data Protection Law (LGPD - Law No. 13,709/18). Hard drive sanitization services guarantee the complete elimination of information, mitigating leakage risks and ensuring legal compliance.

Training and Communication

Technical training for the teams responsible for maintaining and updating equipment, as well as clear communication with the impacted areas, minimizes the risk of failures and optimizes the updating process, according to the guidelines in the Federal Government's Information Technology Asset Management Manual.

Post-Implementation Monitoring

After replacement, continuous monitoring of operations is essential to identify any failures in performance levels, according to the parameters established by the NBR ISO 9001 standard. This monitoring allows for quick adjustments and guarantees operational efficiency without any loss of productivity.
