Problem
IT can account for up to 45% of a company's carbon footprint, yet traditional IT reseller models remain focused on selling new hardware. Customers are extending refresh cycles to cut costs and reduce environmental impact, while vendors shift toward software and licensing, leaving resellers without a clear path to sustainable, profitable growth.
Solution
Circularity First provides CFOS, a sustainability management platform designed specifically for IT service providers. The platform enables resellers to source vendor-certified remanufactured hardware bundled with software and licensing, increasing margins while reducing environmental impact. CFOS delivers actionable Scope 3 reporting on hardware, allowing providers to make informed recommendations and demonstrate circular impact to their customers. It also supports repeatable revenue through Hardware-as-a-Service models and includes managed services and sales enablement tools to upskill teams and expand service offerings.
