Workwize Expands to South Africa: Streamlined IT Asset Management for the African Continent


South Africa is emerging as one of Africa’s most crucial remote work and business process outsourcing (BPO) hubs.
With over 1.6 million professionals working remotely and digital-first operations expanding from Johannesburg to Cape Town, efficiently equipping and managing distributed teams has become critical for growing organizations.
However, too many companies still rely on fragmented local service providers to manage IT hardware procurement, delivery, and disposal.
The result? Delays, inconsistent support, and scattered workflows leave IT teams frustrated and remote employees waiting.
To solve this, Workwize is proud to announce the launch of its new warehouse, empowering global companies to manage IT assets across Southern and Sub-Saharan Africa from a single, integrated platform.
Unified Alternative to Scattered Logistics
Traditionally, companies operating in South Africa—or expanding into nearby countries like Namibia, Botswana, and Kenya—face a tangled web of regional vendors.
Each handles a small piece of the process, often leading to communication breakdowns, missed deliveries, or poor device recovery.
With Workwize’s Johannesburg warehouse, organizations can centralize every aspect of the IT hardware lifecycle:
-
Procurement: Order or lease laptops, peripherals, and office gear from trusted local vendors, with standardized pricing and fast availability
-
Deployment: Ship MDM-enrolled devices to employees in South Africa or neighboring countries within 1–5 days, with full tracking and compliance
-
Management: Monitor real-time inventory, repairs, and replacements from one dashboard synced to your HRIS and MDM systems
-
Retrieval: Schedule automated offboarding pickups with certified data wiping, testing, and warehouse storage for future redeployment
-
Disposal: Resell or recycle assets responsibly through our certified African ITAD network
Scaling Smartly in Africa
Workwize helps organizations reduce shipping costs, shorten delivery times, and cut CO₂ emissions by sourcing and storing locally. But more than that, it gives IT teams back their time. Companies using Workwize report saving up to 40 hours per month in manual coordination and asset tracking.
For employees—especially in fast-growing remote hubs like Johannesburg, Durban, or Nairobi—Workwize ensures a reliable and smooth experience from onboarding to offboarding.
