Bring a method to the madness... 
When bringing in new hardware, Premier uses the following hardware receipt, PO verification and asset tag assignment process:
- Hardware is received at Premier from vendor
- Physical inventory is performed and verified against purchase order
- Equipment is unpacked and a customer approved asset tag is applied
- Serial and Model number bar codes are scanned into Premier database
- Asset tag number and user assignment is entered into Premier database
- Asset information and field user assignment is transmitted to customer
Once inventoried, hardware can be prepared for use with your chosen OS image and field user information loaded:
- Client developed OS resides at Premier on a local server
- Premier will access server to load base image onto a deployable system
- User identities are applied and loaded onto the system
- All field user identification, email, and configurations are applied to a deployable system to ensure that the data is current
