Sustainable Device Management Guide for the WA Public Sector
The Sustainable Device Management Guide for the WA Public Sector (the Guide) supports agencies to take a practical, whole-of-device lifecycle approach to managing ICT devices, from procurement and use, through to decommissioning, disposal and reuse.
Designed to be applied, not just read, the Guide helps agencies review and strengthen their existing ICT practices, identify opportunities for improvement, and confidently implement approaches that align with WA procurement, cyber security and environment policy requirements.
Why use the Guide?
As government services increasingly move online, access to a suitable device is essential for full participation in the digital world. By supporting responsible reuse and donation of government devices, agencies can help reduce barriers to access, extend the value of public assets and show practical leadership in digital inclusion.
The Guide provides clear guidance to help agencies navigate the authorising environment and take action with confidence, whether they are strengthening internal processes, exploring device donation options, or embedding sustainability considerations into procurement decisions.
