About Recurrent Technologies
Recurrent Technologies is a proven leader in the IT equipment industry, with 27 years of experience buying, refurbishing, and selling technology to a diverse range of clients—from innovative start-ups to Fortune 500 companies. Based in Silicon Valley and serving clients across the United States, Recurrent Technologies has continually adapted to the ever-evolving tech landscape, ensuring that its clients receive top-tier IT solutions.
The Challenge
As Recurrent Technologies expanded its reach to global markets, particularly in Europe and the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, the complexities of cross-border technology movement became increasingly apparent. Navigating international compliance, securing permits and licenses, and managing duties and taxes introduced significant risks and potential delays for their clients. Any disruption in shipment timelines could adversely affect operations for their clients who often have critical deployment schedules.
The Solution
To mitigate these challenges, Recurrent Technologies partnered with TecEx, a global leader specializing in compliance and cross-border technology hardware movement. Greg Pignati, CEO of Recurrent Technologies, Inc., emphasizes the tangible benefits of this partnership:
TecEx alleviates the risk and burden of managing the extensive compliance, permits, licenses, duties, and taxes when moving equipment. Many of our clients do not want to act as the Importer of Record (IOR), so having TecEx assume the role of IOR with their attention to detail and high-level of efficiency has provided a measurable impact for our business and our clients.
As an IOR, TecEx manages the entire process from start to finish, ensuring that Recurrent Technologies’ shipments move smoothly and efficiently across borders. Key advantages of this partnership include:
Rapid Response
TecEx provides quotes within a day, allowing Recurrent Technologies to maintain agility in its operations and meet tight deadlines.
Meticulous Attention to Detail
Noa Sussman and her team provide a focus on detail that is crucial, especially in countries with stringent regulations like Japan. Their eagle eye on processes ensures that shipments are not delayed for weeks, providing peace of mind to Recurrent Technologies and avoiding disruptions for their clients.
Risk Reduction
Recurrent Technologies’ primary reason for partnering with TecEx is to minimize compliance risks for both the company and its customers. TecEx’s deep expertise in international regulations allows Recurrent Technologies to confidently manage the complexities of cross-border technology movement.
The Outcome
Through its partnership with TecEx, Recurrent Technologies is now postured to efficiently move IT equipment across borders with assurance that compliance is met. This collaboration supports Recurrent Technologies’ mission to facilitate seamless data center deployments and other critical operations for its clients, with a strong emphasis on rapid deployment, compliance, and sustainability.
Moving equipment cross-border and facilitating data center deployments is a big part of what we do. We need to ensure our clients realize rapid deployments. Compliance and sustainability are of heightened importance, and we know we are in good hands with TecEx, given their deep knowledge.
