Laser Diodes
Dovebid has assisted financial institutions, corporations and government departments for over six decades in providing value to their surplus or idle capital assets. With over 40 sites throughout North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe, Dovebid uses generations of expertise as well as the power of the Internet to provide a variety of solutions for asset disposal. Many companies have surplus or idle capital assets that are specialized, like laser diodes. These specialized assets freeze up their capital.
By making use of DoveBid’s Managed Services (DMS), these stockpiles can become a source of revenue for companies instead of occupying warehouse space and eating into capital. Companies can find new value in used or surplus stock with the implementation of the DMS Surplus Asset Management program. This programs works on the basis of making assets in the company visible. In most cases, surplus or idle stock is unaccounted for and is therefore not made visible throughout the entire enterprise. Trained DMS staff works with the company’s representatives to identify these assets and record them in a surplus inventory. Regular site visits ensure that this inventory is updated and complete. A company with unused laser diodes, for example, would make a record of them on the system.
These laser diodes would therefore be made visible throughout the organization such that a decision can be made as to whether they can be redeployed in another section of the company, or if they should be disposed off to the external market. The disposition to the external market can be done through a Dovebid auction. Dovebid also offers a complete evaluation service of your assets, in order to assist you in making the decision of redeployment or disposition.
For a company looking to purchase laser diodes, Dovebid also offers a variety of value-added services for buyers. Webcast auctions broadcast live auctions over the Internet such that buyers worldwide can benefit from the auctions. For those buyers who are unable to view assets personally, Dovebid offers Inspection Services. Through these services, a remote buyer can choose to make use of an experienced asset inspector to inspect and review any asset in order to assist with the purchasing decision.
Another value-added service for both buyers and sellers is DoveBid’s Transportation and Logistics Services. This service removes the concern of having assets shipped. Dovebid has a network of pre-approved transportation specialists who will be able to assist buyers and sellers with shipping arrangements. Buyers can also view assets, such as laser diodes, laboratory equipment and other products throughout the world, as they are digitally photographed and posted on the Internet.
Dovebid covers all angles of the buying and selling of used capital assets in order to ensure client satisfaction. DoveBid’s Auctionlease can provide quick access to the funding required to make purchases through Dovebid auctions, for those buyers requiring finance. Unlike a loan from the bank, these leases require little or no down payment. Leasing also allows the buyer to mix different types of equipment from the same auction, example laser diodes, lab ovens and other lab equipment, into the lease.
