Taking Rote Work Out of CPE Testing

In Bydgoszcz, more than 250 testers sit along a conveyor-fed test line and run CPE tests automatically. Yet a technician still has to place every device in a tester, plug it in, and pull it out again afterward. We’ve now set up the first robotic cell built to take over that work.      As […]

Data Center Migration Strategies and How to Choose

More than half of data center operators say their major outages cost over $100,000. For a second year in a row, 20% of them reported over $1 million in losses, according to Uptime Institute’s 2026 outage analysis. These losses are why a data center migration strategy deserves careful thought. How the migration should happen and […]

How to Build a Data Center Migration Project: 10 Step Plan

Most data center migrations fail in execution, not in planning. The project gets approved, the schedule holds, the budget is set, and the problems start when the work begins affecting live systems. That is when minimizing downtime starts competing with following the agreed sequence. Decisions get compressed: whether an undocumented dependency matters, whether a validation […]

Building the Foundation for Receiving Automation at Reconext Reynosa

Reconext has a strong appetite for automation. Over the past year, that has included automated product intake, AI-assisted sticker and label removal, automated cosmetic grading, automated laptop cleaning and automated data erasure.  Each of those systems depends on the same thing: a process that is clear, consistent and primed to scale.  That principle is now shaping a major transformation of receiving operations at Reconext Reynosa.  […]

Turning Site-Level Improvements Into Network Capability

A good process improvement should not stay local. One of the advantages of Reconext’s operating footprint is that teams across our 22 global sites can develop and test improvements at the same time, then share what works across the network.  When one facility has already solved a problem, another doesn’t have to start from scratch.  That means our teams document more than […]

The Challenges of Sustainable IT and How to Solve Them

Corporate sustainability commitments are colliding with an IT environment that changes fast. It consumes more power, generates more waste, and turns over hardware faster than it did five years ago.  We live in an age where equipment has never been more power-hungry. Much of that growth is owed to the rise of AI integrations. Global […]

How to Plan and Execute a Data Center Shutdown Safely

Taking a live data center offline introduces risk before any maintenance or infrastructure work begins. Once systems start going offline, the margin for error narrows and the ability to recover depends on decisions made before shutdown. An overlooked dependency can extend an outage beyond its intended scope. An unvalidated recovery plan can leave critical systems […]

How to Make Your IT Asset Tracking System Audit-Ready

Having an IT asset inventory is a good start, but it does not guarantee audit readiness. Many organizations can produce a list of devices, yet struggle to prove that those records accurately reflect their current IT stack.  During an audit, reviewers need evidence that assets exist, ownership information is correct, custody changes are documented, and […]
