• A centralized IT asset management system tracks hardware and software inventory across devices, with lifecycle management and check-in/check-out, extended to printers, IoT, and infrastructure.
• Software installation is controlled — local administrative rights are restricted and new installations are routed through the Help Desk — with software assets and licenses managed centrally.
• Hardware is standardized on approved models with a defined refresh lifecycle, and end-of-life operating systems are migrated before support deadlines.
