For Municipalities and Public Authorities, the management of unused assets represents one of today’s most significant challenges in terms of administrative efficiency, sustainability, and responsibility towards the community. Vehicles, equipment, and unused assets are not merely a management cost, but a form of heritage that, if properly enhanced, can be regenerated and transformed into a tangible economic resource.
In this context, the online auction is establishing itself as an innovative tool for the management and enhancement of public assets. It is a model that combines procedural transparency, speed of execution, and access to a broad and qualified audience. Gobid Group supports Municipalities and Public Authorities with a structured approach that integrates cutting-edge technology, specialized expertise, and a vision focused on asset circularity.
Success stories: when public assets find a second life
The experiences gained by Gobid Group with various Italian municipalities demonstrate how a well-designed strategy can quickly transform unused assets into immediate liquidity, with concrete benefits on both an economic and organizational level.
The case of the Municipality of Rovereto, for example, is particularly significant. The Authority needed to free up storage space and rationalize a heterogeneous set of vehicles, machinery, and equipment for green area maintenance. Through the structured and qualified support of Gobid Group, assets that had been sitting idle in warehouses were converted into economic resources within a limited timeframe of just two months. Out of 31 published lots, 30 were awarded at the first auction attempt, with a final value almost quadrupled thanks to online competition.
A similar path can be seen in the case of the Municipality of Mori (TN), which needed to dispose of a fleet consisting of 26 assets, including commercial vehicles and operational machinery. In this case, within just one month, 19 lots were liquidated at the first attempt, with an increase of +108.66% compared to the starting price, confirming the effectiveness of the model even for heterogeneous assets.
Enhancement also applies to individual assets. The Municipality of Roncegno Terme (TN) offers a precise example: a 1996 Land Rover Defender, a former Civil Protection vehicle, attracted 20 active observers and was awarded with a 20% increase. A vehicle that was still technically sound thus found a new intended use, extending its life cycle.
The pillars of enhancement
Maximizing value represents the first distinctive element. Online auctions make it possible to activate transparent competition among operators, capturing real market interest. As demonstrated by the results achieved, assets that are no longer strategic for the Authority can generate significant economic resources, which can be immediately reinvested in services and activities for the benefit of the community.
Speed of liquidation is one of the main advantages for Municipalities and Public Authorities. Gobid Group’s specialized solutions make it possible to transform unused assets into economic resources within short and clearly defined timeframes, reducing inventory, quickly freeing up municipal spaces, and simplifying operational asset management.
Maximum visibility of assets is another key factor in the enhancement of public property. Through online auctions and dedicated communication strategies, municipal assets are promoted to a broad and qualified national audience, increasing operator interest and fostering effective competition. This approach makes it possible to capture the true market potential and enhance assets in a transparent manner consistent with demand dynamics.
Finally, circularity and sustainability form the foundation of the model. Vehicles, machinery, and equipment are not simply disposed of, but reintroduced into the economic cycle through new uses. For Municipalities and Public Authorities, promoting reuse means reducing environmental impact and encouraging responsible, efficient, and modern management of public assets.
