Simplify Laptop Procurement in Argentina

Shipping laptops from HQ adds customs duties, VAT, and courier or brokerage fees to each device’s landed cost. While employee reimbursements or local suppliers cost less, IT has to manage inconsistent hardware and coordinate multiple vendors for repairs and returns.

The complexity grows when your workforce spreads across Argentina, and you don’t have a standardized procurement solution.

• International shipping adds complexity: Shipping a laptop to Argentina adds international freight, customs documentation, taxes, and clearance coordination to each order, increasing cost and manual work for IT.

• Laptops might lack warranty coverage: A laptop covered in the country of purchase may not get the same service in Argentina, forcing IT to arrange local repairs or ship the device back internationally.

• Reimbursements Break Hardware Standards: Employees may purchase different models, configurations, warranties, keyboards, and power accessories, making it harder for IT to manage all devices remotely.

• Local vendors multiply procurement work: Buying locally avoids international shipping. But managing it internally means IT may need different suppliers for laptops, accessories, repairs, and returns, resulting in fragmentation

• Poor visibility into assets: If you rely on local vendors for procurement, and they aren’t connected to your central asset record, IT may not have real-time information on asset ownership, assignment status, warranty, and more.

• Offboarding becomes a logistics problem: When an employee leaves, IT must arrange collection, track the return, secure company data, and decide the next steps.
