Now Live: Workwize UK Warehouse Powers Fast, Automated IT Hardware Management

Written by Workwize Team | Sep 20, 2023 11:45:00 PM

As hybrid and remote work reshape British businesses' operations, IT teams face a new challenge: delivering hardware quickly, securely, and without relying on slow, fragmented supply chains.

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of the Workwize warehouse in the UK. This will give IT teams a powerful, local solution for procuring, storing, deploying, and retrieving IT equipment nationwide.

From London to Leeds, you can now deliver fully configured laptops and hardware to employees in just 1–2 days while automating every stage of the IT asset lifecycle.

What This Means for UK-Based IT Teams

Post-Brexit customs processes and cross-border supply chain issues have made traditional hardware procurement more time-consuming and expensive. Most IT teams deal with:

  • Delayed onboarding due to shipping and setup issues

  • Siloed procurement and asset management systems

  • High admin overhead and lack of visibility

  • Difficulty maintaining device security and compliance

With Workwize, those problems are solved. Workwize's UK warehouse lets IT teams: 

  • Store laptops and IT peripherals close to your workforce

  • Pre-configure devices with your MDM before shipping

  • Deliver hardware in 1–2 business days, anywhere in the UK

  • Automate retrieval when employees leave

  • Ensure secure data erasure and compliant disposal

The End-to-End IT Hardware Lifecycle—Fully Automated

Workwize gives you control over every stage of IT equipment management in one platform:

  1. Procure. Buy or lease laptops, monitors, headsets, and office equipment from local vendors.

  2. Deploy. Devices arrive pre-configured, ready to use, and shipped directly to employee homes or offices.

  3. Manage. Track hardware, manage buffer stock, and simplify repair or replacement—all in one dashboard.

  4. Retrieve. Collect and reintegrate assets during offboarding or store them for future use.

  5. Dispose. Certified, secure data wiping and local ITAD resale or recycling.

No spreadsheets, no chasing couriers, and no multiple vendor touchpoints. Just seamless, scalable IT operations.

Automate ITSM. Focus on What Matters.

Workwize isn’t just warehousing—it’s a platform that brings automation to IT service management (ITSM).

From the moment a new hire is added to your HRIS to the secure decommissioning of a device at offboarding, Workwize connects every system and step in one seamless flow.
