Management of computing devices using employee records

A computer-implemented method for improved computing device operations, the method comprising:

• maintaining, by a computing system comprising one or more processors, an organizational database that store a centralized set of organizational data associated with an organization, wherein the centralized set of organizational data comprises a plurality of device objects respectively associated with a plurality of computing devices and a plurality of employee objects respectively associated with a plurality of employees of the organization, wherein a first device object of the plurality of device objects is associated with a first employee object of the plurality of employee objects, wherein the first device object is associated with a first computing device of the plurality of computing devices, and wherein the first employee object is associated with a first employee of the plurality of employees of the organization;
• receiving, by the computing system, a notification associated with the first employee object;
• determining, by the computing system using the organizational database, that the first device object is associated with the first employee;
• accessing, by the computing system, a device policy for the first device object;
• evaluating, by the computing system, the device policy based at least in part on data associated with the first employee object and the notification, wherein evaluating the device policy comprises running a query expression against the centralized set of organizational data to return a query result;
• and
• executing an action based on the query result, wherein the action is associated with the first computing device;
• wherein the action executed includes shipping the first computing device from a warehouse location to the first employee after the first employee has accepted a job offer, the method further comprising:
• determining a number of devices that is similar to the first computing device being stored in the warehouse location being below a threshold number;
• and ordering one or more devices that is similar to the first computing device in response to the determination the number of devices is below the threshold number.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media that collectively store instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a computing system to perform actions, the actions comprising:

• accessing an organizational database that store a centralized set of organizational data associated with an organization, wherein the centralized set of organizational data comprises a plurality of device objects respectively associated with a plurality of computing devices and a plurality of employee objects respectively associated with a plurality of employees of the organization, wherein a first device object of the plurality of device objects is associated with a first employee object of the plurality of employee objects, wherein the first device object is associated with a first computing device of the plurality of computing devices, and wherein the first employee object is associated with a first employee of the plurality of employees of the organization;
• receiving, by the computing system, a notification associated with the first employee object;
• determining, by the computing system using the organizational database, that the first device object is associated with the first employee;
• accessing, by the computing system, a device policy for the first device object;
• evaluating, by the computing system, the device policy based at least in part on data associated with the first employee object and the notification, wherein evaluating the device policy comprises running a query expression against the centralized set of organizational data to return a query result;
• and
• executing an action based on the query result, wherein the action is associated with the first computing device;
• wherein the action executed includes shipping the first computing device from a warehouse location to the first employee after the first employee has accepted a job offer, the method further comprising:
• determining a number of devices that is similar to the first computing device being stored in the warehouse location being below a threshold number;
• and ordering one or more devices that is similar to the first computing device in response to the determination the number of devices is below the threshold number.
