Asset Tracking and Maintenance
Automating Asset Tracking for Improved Compliance and Performance
Higher regulatory scrutiny and renewed concern for the bottom line are driving more organizations to improve their asset tracking processes. Over time, assets move from location to location and employee to employee. Given the number of assets within a single business, a simple inventory can be a time- and labor-intensive effort. As a result, many businesses don’t have a precise understanding of the location and condition of their assets, leading them to make unnecessary purchases or neglect critical maintenance. With a real-time view of what they have, where it is, how it’s used and how it’s maintained, business can simplify compliance, cut unnecessary expenditures, and realize a better return on their current asset investments.
Asset Tracking and Maintenance
Asset Tracking and Maintenance, from TAKE Supply Chain, improves ongoing visibility and control of asset investments by streamlining asset categorization and tracking. As companies create system records of their assets, they can assign physical locations using a hierarchy of categories (such as region, building, floor and room) and a logical description (including department, cost center and asset owner/custodian) that show how an asset is used. Barcode or RFID tags affixed to each asset simplify inventory and tracking, allowing workers to use handheld scanners to determine whether an asset is in the right place and identify “lost” assets. Workers can also easily transfer misplaced assets to the correct location or assign them to a current location, as well as reassign assets a new logical identifier, such as an employee or group.
