Equipment tracking can benefit a range of different industries, including construction, manufacturing, IT, healthcare, hospitality, education among many more! If your business or organisation relies on the fluid movement of assets then equipment tracking can help you.
What is Equipment Tracking?
Equipment tracking is a way of keeping a record of everything a business owns. As pieces of equipment are physical objects they are known as tangible assets, this includes:
- Appliances
- Computers
- HVAC equipment
- IT equipment
- Lights
- Production equipment
- Furniture
- Copiers and printers
- Safety equipment
- Signs
You can attach physical asset tags or barcodes to these, allowing them to be easily tracked. Each time the barcode or tag is scanned, the location of the asset is automatically updated in the online asset register. The type of tag you choose depends on the application but they all achieve the same outcome: letting you know where your asset is and how it’s behaving. Asset tracking software provides a centralised platform that keeps all the relevant information about your assets, such as location, contact information, owner, and maintenance history, in one place.
