Technology Lifecycle Management (TLM) is the strategic planning of IT equipment from procurement through retirement. For Bangladesh enterprises, optimal refresh cycles are 3-4 years for laptops, 4-5 years for servers, and 2-3 years for mobile devices. Proper TLM reduces total cost of ownership by 25-30% while ensuring data security through certified ITAD at end-of-life.
Optimal Refresh Cycles by Device Type:
| Device Type | Optimal Lifespan | Performance Degradation Point | Security Risk Threshold |
|---|---|---|---|
| Laptops | 3-4 years | 40% performance drop | End of OS security updates |
| Desktop PCs | 4-5 years | 35% performance drop | BIOS vulnerability exposure |
| Servers | 4-5 years | 30% performance drop | Hardware failure risk increase |
| Mobile Devices | 2-3 years | 50% battery degradation | OS update discontinuation |
| Networking Equipment | 5-6 years | 25% throughput reduction | Firmware vulnerability |
| Printers/Peripherals | 5-7 years | 20% efficiency drop | Driver compatibility issues |
