BNP Paribas 3 Step IT, comprehensive and more sustainable solutions for IT equipment

Published On 21.05.2024

Today, technology is essential for businesses to remain competitive and resilient, offering them the chance to boost their productivity, foster innovation, and drive a better future. However, with cost pressures mounting, regulations on resource use increasing and technology globally recognized as a growing contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, the need for IT strategies that are financially efficient, operationally effective, and more sustainable has never been greater.

BNP Paribas 3 Step IT, a BNP Paribas company launched in 2019, is a leading provider of circular end-to-end technology management services, offering businesses solutions to procure, manage, and handle the decommissioning of their IT equipment in a more sustainable, cost-effective, and secure way.  

Promoting a more sustainable approach to technology management across Europe

With a presence in several European countries and dedicated technology refurbishing centers in the UK and France (due to open late 2024), BNP Paribas 3 Step IT’s solutions provide a comprehensive approach to help companies:

  • Optimise IT spending: thanks to competitive value recovery and a credit line to access the tech they need, when they need it, without large upfront costs.
  • Improve operational efficiency: with pre-populated asset inventory, comprehensive device-level reporting, end-to-end traceability, and predictable renewals to ensure operational resilience against supply chain issues.
  • Support regulatory compliance: by supporting readiness for upcoming EU circularity regulations around the responsible and traceable disposal of assets.
  • Support data security throughout the entire first lifecycle of their IT assets with secure, tracked data wiping and asset processing in line with ISO standards.
  • Ensure responsible management of IT resources: by maximising the opportunity for devices to get a second, useful life, potential e-waste is prevented from being created, and the CO2e impact of manufacturing new tech on the environment is avoided. All while giving businesses the ability to acquire newer, more energy-efficient devices.

Carmen ENE, CEO of BNP Paribas 3 Step IT, states, "At BNP Paribas 3 Step IT, we aim to provide our customers with IT management solutions that don’t require them to compromise between operational efficiency, financial profitability, and responsible device management.  Our international presence, expertise in financing solutions and experience in giving a second life to IT devices enables us to support our clients in the transition towards a circular and more responsible economy.”
