How Does Asset Tracking Software Save Your Business Money

The right asset tracking software can help to save your business money in a variety of ways. Here at itemit, we proudly offer businesses everywhere our tracking software that can save money no matter what sector you’re in. Whether you’re a large business or a small one, we can help you.

Asset tracking software is a type of software that users can log into and use to track each of their assets. With the ability to add unique profiles and specific data, our software allows you to track a wide range of assets. 

When users add a QR code or barcode to an asset, it is possible to track the asset’s last-known location. As a result, it is possible to see where every asset is. It is also possible to see which team member is using the asset, the asset’s condition, and even how much it’s worth. All of this is possible thanks to our comprehensive and reliable tracking software.

The task of asset management is often a difficult one. Managing multiple assets can take a lot of time. Some businesses even rely on spreadsheets to help them track their assets. Unfortunately, spreadsheets can be unreliable. In addition to this, humans can make mistakes when inputting data.  

Our tracking software works by taking away any potential errors. Data will no longer need to be manually entered. Instead, our software will do the hard work. As a result, data is much more likely to be accurate. In this respect, it is possible to save money.

There are other ways that our software can save you money. These include:

When an asset becomes damaged, it can be all too easy to set it to one side. Using an asset that works instead can ensure tasks are completed. However, the damaged asset may not be repaired as quickly as it should be. Users can forget that they need to report that an asset is not working. As a result, the asset remains in an unusable condition. 

When using itemit’s tracking software, all users need to do is to report an issue. When an issue is reported, the maintenance team will receive a message stating that something is wrong. As a result, they can repair the asset and get it back into the system again. 

This helps to reduce asset downtime, meaning tasks could be completed quicker. This, in turn, can help to reduce costs. Another benefit of regular maintenance is that assets are less likely to need replacing. Should a maintenance schedule be set up for every asset, the maintenance team will know when they need to be checked. Again, this can help businesses to save money. Fewer assets will need to be scrapped as they’re more likely to be in good working order. What this means is that it’s possible to save money on replacing damaged assets.

Ghost assets are assets which have been lost, stolen, or damaged, but have not been reported as such. As a result, the assets are still named on the system and are assumed to be in good working order. 

When a business has multiple ghost assets there’s a chance that it could be losing money. For example, a business may still be paying for insurance to cover the assets. Businesses could also be entering the value of the ghost assets into their accounting software. What this means is that the accounts are not accurate. 

When the right asset tracking software is used, ghost assets can be eliminated. As an asset is tracked at all times, it’s possible to see whether it has been lost or stolen.

From time to time, a business may realise that they have a few ghost assets. They may, therefore, choose to purchase new assets to act as a replacement. This ultimately means that the business will be spending more money than is necessary. Here is where itemit can help. With the ability to eliminate ghost assets, there will be no need to purchase additional assets. Therefore, there’s a real potential for money to be saved.
