Angie Ransom, Vice President of the Retail Division for ERI, the nation’s largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, participated in a panel of experts on the multifaceted relationship between data and logistics yesterday at the Reverse Logistics Association (RLA) 19th Annual RLA Conference & Expo at the Mirage in Las Vegas.
For the panel titled “Reverse Our Thinking: Logistics Powered by Data,” Ransom was joined onstage by Jason MacIver of Dell Technologies and Greg Williams of Cisco Systems. The panel was moderated by Chris Rezendes of OnProcess Technology.
During the presentation, Ransom shared why we are heading into a time of significant growth in need for ITAD services and recycling of electronic waste and how efficient GPS tracking, monitoring, and data capture on a national level can maximize efficiencies. She also discussed the role data plays in helping companies report success for ESG, sustainability and circular economy initiatives.
“We’re grateful to have our own Angie Ransom be invited by our friends at RLA and OnProcess to participate in this important and informative discussion at RLA Conference,” said ERI Chairman/CEO John Shegerian. “RLA is a vitally important organization, providing the reverse logistics community with critical thought leadership and an opportunity for leaders to share what they know – and to discuss vital best practices. Communication and education are vital if we are to problem-solve and work together to create solutions that protect our planet. We’re grateful to RLA for including such critical dialogue at this important event.”
