Text Description of Figure 2, titled The FDIC’s 2007 Replacement and Disposal Process for Laptop Computers.

This image depiscts Six main Steps and four sub steps.

Step1: The DDC receives a list of serial numbers from WWT for new laptops shipped to the FDIC’s locations.

Step 2: The DDC updates Remedy® with the serial numbers for new laptops.

Step 3: At deployment date, the used laptop is removed, and a new laptop is provided to the user. The hard drive from the used laptop is removed and stored for 120 days in the event the data are needed. The used laptop is then shipped to DDC.

Four Actions take place at this step:

1) SRA/DIT installer and the FDIC user complete and sign a hand bill receipt.
2) SRA/DIT personnel conducting the laptop deployment update Remedy® using the hand bill information.
3) DIT/SRA personnel update the laptop deployment.
4) SRA/DIT personnel create the hard drive schedule that identifies the hard drive serial number, laptop serial number, user name, and hard drive removal and destruction dates.

Step 4: DDC ships used laptops to the asset recovery servicer for credit and updates Remedy®.

Step 5: After 120 days, DIT personnel in the regional/ field offices drill four holes into the hard drives prior to shipping them to the DDC in order to provide added security in the event a hard drive is lost during shipment.

Step 6: DDC personnel take all hard drives (those from headquarters locations and those shipped from regional/field offices) to a recycling facility for shredding. Then, DDC personnel update the hard drive inventory in Remedy®.
