A computer liquidator buys computer technology and related equipment that is no longer required by one company, and [[flips]] (resells) it to a second company. There are several reasons why companies sell perfectly good IT equipment. Bankruptcy is one, downsizing and expanding are two more, but by far the most common reason is that the equipment is no longer performing the tasks required of it, usually because it has been rendered obsolete by more advanced technology coming on to the market.

However, what's outdated for one company is still viable for another company, whose operations may not require advanced solutions. Often, an [[Information Technology Audit]] will be performed to help a company decide if they're equipment needs updating, and if so what are the requirements.
