Recover Every Asset
Assets often walk out the door with exiting employees. Kiework integrates with the Asset module to ensure everything is returned, from laptops to access cards.
Auto-Generated Lists
The system pulls a list of all assets assigned to the employee (Laptop, ID Card, Vehicle) for the handover checklist.
Return Validation
IT or Admin must mark each item as "Returned & Working" before the clearance can proceed.
Damage Recovery
Log damaged or missing items. The system automatically calculates recovery costs to be deducted from the settlement.

Failing to recover IT equipment from exiting employees is a significant hidden cost for growing companies. By linking your asset inventory directly to the exit workflow, Kiework eliminates recovery gaps and automates the valuation of any damages. The benchmarks below showcase the ROI of transitioning from manual spreadsheet tracking to an integrated asset recovery system.

Protecting Company Property: The Asset Handover Workflow
In a hybrid work era, company property—from high-end MacBooks to secure access cards—is spread across hundreds of locations. When an employee leaves, the logistical challenge of recovering these assets is immense. Kiework’s Asset Return module is designed to ensure 100% recovery rates, protecting your company from financial loss and data security risks.
The Dynamic Handover Checklist
Static checklists often fail because they don't reflect the actual inventory assigned to an employee. Kiework’s checklist is dynamic. It pulls data directly from the IT Asset module to show exactly what the exiting employee has in their possession: the serial number of their laptop, the specific monitor model, and even software license keys. This level of detail ensures that IT knows exactly what to ask for, and the employee cannot claim they "never received" a specific item.
Linking Recovery to Settlement
The strongest lever for asset recovery is the Full & Final (FnF) settlement. Kiework integrates these modules. If an asset is marked as "Missing" or "Damaged beyond repair" by IT, the system can automatically calculate the depreciated value of that asset and flag it as a "Deduction" in the FnF statement. This automation ensures that the company is compensated for lost property without the need for manual calculations or uncomfortable negotiations.
Security and Data Deletion
Asset return is also a security protocol. Beyond the physical device, you must ensure that company data is wiped. Our workflow includes specific "Security Sign-offs." The IT team must confirm that the device has been remotely wiped or formatted before the asset return task can be closed. This ensures that your intellectual property remains within the company, even after the device changes hands.
