allwhere Australia Depot — Bringing More of the Device Lifecycle In-Country

Managing employee devices across Australia just got simpler.

We’re excited to introduce the allwhere Australia depot beta, bringing procurement, warehousing, deployment, retrievals, processing, and device retirement closer to the employees and teams they support.

With local infrastructure in Australia and these services available directly through the allwhere portal, IT teams can manage more of the device lifecycle without relying on complex cross-border logistics for every order or return.

A more connected device lifecycle in Australia

As distributed teams grow, managing devices across borders can add unnecessary complexity. Shipping devices internationally, coordinating returns, and maintaining visibility across different logistics partners can make even routine lifecycle tasks harder to manage.

The allwhere Australia depot helps simplify that process by bringing more of the lifecycle in-country and into one connected workflow.

Teams can procure devices directly to employees, send inventory to the Australia depot for storage, deploy devices when they’re needed, retrieve equipment from departing employees, and process devices for their next destination — all through allwhere.

Keep inventory in Australia

With Buy & Hold inventory, teams can procure devices ahead of time and store them locally, ready for new hires, replacements, and planned deployments.

Instead of waiting to procure and ship a device for every request, IT teams can maintain inventory closer to where it will be needed and fulfill deployments from the depot.

Simplify device retrievals

Employee offboarding doesn't have to mean coordinating international shipping.

With local retrievals and warehouse processing, devices can be returned within Australia and routed through the next stage of the lifecycle — whether that means processing, redeployment, or retirement.

For larger programs, Bulk Retrievals / Ship to allwhere also make it easier to consolidate devices and move them into the allwhere workflow for processing.

Reduce cross-border logistics

Keeping more devices within Australia can reduce the need for international movement wherever possible.

That means fewer cross-border shipping considerations, fewer logistics handoffs, and a more predictable experience for IT teams managing devices across Australia.

One connected lifecycle

The Australia depot isn't a separate workflow or disconnected logistics operation. It is part of the same allwhere lifecycle experience.

From the initial purchase through final retirement, teams can manage:

Procure → Store → Deploy → Retrieve → Process → Recycle

All through the allwhere platform.

Services available now

The Australia depot beta currently supports:

• Procurement to Recipient — Send devices directly to employees in Australia.
• Procurement to Depot / Buy & Hold — Purchase inventory and store it locally for future deployments.
• Warehousing & Storage — Keep devices securely stored in-country until they’re needed.
• Deployment — Fulfill employee device orders from local depot inventory.
• Retrieval — Coordinate local device returns from departing employees.
• Bulk Retrievals / Ship to allwhere — Consolidate devices for processing through allwhere.
• Process — Move returned devices through the appropriate next lifecycle step.
• Recycle — Retire devices responsibly when they reach the end of their useful life.

Built for the way modern IT teams operate

The goal isn't simply to add another warehouse location. It's to make device operations easier to manage, easier to scale, and more connected.

By combining local execution with the allwhere platform, IT teams can maintain centralized visibility while giving employees a more straightforward experience on the ground.

Whether you're onboarding a new employee, replacing a device, managing a planned deployment, or recovering equipment during offboarding, more of the process can now happen locally — without losing the centralized control of allwhere.
