Harry Ross, the founder of Dovebid, started the company in 1937. The company has now expanded throughout the world, with over 40 offices throughout North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe. Dovebid is set apart in that the company provides such a wide range of services. DoveBid’s buyer database had been growing consistently and the company has conducted more than 5000 industry-specific auctions globally. Through DoveBid’s Internet auctions, a buyer in Japan is able to buy used equipment such as a DNA Sequencer from the United States.
There are numerous benefits of using DoveBid’s services for companies who wish to dispose of their idle or surplus capital assets. Dovebid provides a complete asset preparation process that includes evaluating, cataloguing and digitally photographing the assets. An asset, such as a DNA sequencer, will be evaluated by an expert in order to assist the company with making their decision.
Dovebid can successfully provide solutions to companies with the redeployment of assets. The popular choice for many companies has become the redeployment of surplus or idle assets. The reason for this is that redeployment represents a recovery of the organization’s value. Idle capital assets often take up valuable warehouse space. These assets could be redeployed in other areas of the organization thus increasing the company’s worth. An unused DNA sequencer in one area of a company can be used in other operations, if it is made visible on an inventory system. The benefit this provides to the company is that an existing capital asset can put to work instead of purchasing new equipment.
Dovebid also markets assets extensively in order to get the maximum value for them. Marketing can be done online, through email, as well as through newspapers, brochures and post cards. Direct marketing is also carried out by compiling lists of assets sought out by buyers. A buyer looking for a DNA sequencer, for example, will be informed via email when this item is available for sale.
International buyers are able to view digital photographs of assets on-line, and are also able to participate in on-location auctions through Webcast technology. These are just a few of DoveBid’s value-added services to buyers. Virtual tours are also available in multiple languages. A subsidiary of Dovebid Valuation Services is Dovebid Inspection Services. This service offers remote buyers the assistance of an experienced asset inspector. The inspector would be able to view and evaluate an asset, such as a DNA sequencer, when a remote buyer in unable to personally do so.
DoveBid’s Auctionlease will be able to assist with the funding should a buyer need financing for a DNA sequencer or any other equipment on a Dovebid auction. This service, however, is currently only offered to buyers and assets based in the United States. Auctionlease covers the entire purchase costs. This includes any sales tax or buying fee, and the buyer can use other credit options for further purchases.
