Vodafone Business Device Lifecycle Management
The easiest way to procure and manage your mobile devices.
The goal of Device Lifecycle Management
Managing employee mobile devices can be complicated, especially with increased hybrid working.
Device Lifecycle Management (DLM) makes it simple to equip your employees with the right mobile devices. Ready to go and out-of-the-box, we're offering you a complete managed service from acquisition to retirement.
Vodafone DLM is designed for hybrid working, with end-to-end procurement and management experience. We equip your people with the right mobile devices to do their job wherever they work from.
Along with the flexibility to own or lease* your devices, DLM takes care of the logistics and frees your valuable team resource to focus on strategic projects, all while offering you the ability to reduce your carbon footprint.
The benefits of our Device Lifecycle Management service
We take care of all your device needs
From device sourcing, build and delivery to in-life services, asset management and responsible decommissioning.
Free your valuable time
As your single supplier, we consolidate your device needs and our end-to-end managed service frees your team’s time to support with strategic business projects.
Out-of-the-box experience
We make sure all your devices are built to your approved design, fully staged if required and delivered to your employees ready to go.
Sustainability schemes to help save the planet
At the end of the lease, your devices are securely wiped and reused or recycled. The carbon footprint of each device is offset.
Buy or lease your devices
Buy your mobiles and tablets outright or lease them – with a choice of lease options ranging from 12 to 36 months, for predictable monthly costs.
Choice of leading products
Give your employees the mobiles and tablets they need to work at their best, including new rugged devices.
One simple, user-friendly interface
A single self-serve platform gives you full visibility over your device estate, making it easy to order and manage devices and report back to the business.
Reduction of electronic waste
Each device leased recycles an equivalent amount of scrap destined for landfill, ensuring minerals go back into the value chain and e-waste is reduced.
Why lease
Financial flexibility
Choose from 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36-month lease options* with predictable monthly costs. No need to tie up funds in an outright purchase.
Always current
Leasing keeps equipment up to date, giving your people the best tools for the job.
Business sense
Leasing is an operating cost and can usually be written off against profits – reducing the net cost of the lease.
Ecologically responsible
At the end of the lease, your device is securely wiped and recycled or reused.
How the DLM service works
Choose your devices and how to pay
Choose from a full range of top phones and tablets, including ruggedised devices. Each device can be built to your exact standards, and can be bought outright or leased over 12 to 36 months.
Agree on the level of support you need
Comes with order and management portal, plus device repair services as standard. Add existing company devices to the DLM service (terms apply), or even add Next Day Delivery.
Agree on the build of your phones
With options including charging devices; basic set-up; encryption, enrolment onto mobile device management servers, and installation of software. Add email accounts, asset tags and accessories.
Delivery and in-life support
Each device is delivered directly to your employee and ready to go out-of-the-box. View and allocate your device estate, raise service requests, and order additional devices from one simple to use portal.
Device retirement
Once returned to Vodafone, your leased devices are securely wiped, and then recycled or reused. Leavers’ phones can also be redistributed to other employees if that is what you prefer.
