Using A School Asset Manager App

A school asset manager app allows you to keep track of important dates and while keeping your asset data up to date. With a school asset management system in place, you save time and money on your existing operations.

It is essential to keep a school asset register up to date to ensure that you’re receiving tax breaks and have accurate insurance operations. Without an effective school fixed asset register, you run the risk of losing assets and purchasing duplicates. You will also have an increased risk of ghost and zombie assets, which can create costs across the board.

A school asset manager app is an app that allows you to log, monitor, update, and keep track of your assets. You’ll have a variety of different features to keep things simple, streamlined and effective.

For example, you’ll be able to log critical maintenance dates against your assets and log them in locations, indicating which classroom they’re in. 

Your asset manager app will also have an integrated and secure cloud-based system, allowing you to run reports online and expand your usage to include IT asset management and fixed asset tracking. 

You can also use asset tags to speed up your asset-level operations. With asset tags, you can scan a QR code or barcode to retrieve an asset’s profile. In other words, each of your computers will have a barcode physically stuck onto it, and then you can scan this barcode to retrieve the corresponding digital profile on your asset tracking app.

In your school asset manager app, you’ll be able to make use of many features on an asset’s profile. This includes an asset booking system to keep track of where assets are and who’s responsible for them.

An asset booking system also gives you the ability to indicate when an asset is due for downtime if the asset has an issue reported against it. Therefore, your colleagues will know exactly what’s going on with an asset list.

You can also use a reminders system to keep your maintenance dates logged and up to date. These can be set to repeat, so, if you’re tracking PAT tests, you’ll be able to set a reminder to repeat every two years.

Every time a reminder is due to expire, your admins will receive an email indicating that maintenance is required, at which point the asset can also be checked out to indicate downtime.

It is also essential to run frequent audits on your school asset register. The auditing process is simply to show you that your assets are still in the location that they should be.

So, for example, if you want to check that all of your computers are still accounted for in your IT suite, an asset audit will be the best way to do this.

Your asset manager app will give you a simple and effective way to run speedy audits on your assets. You simply need to press a button and scan your asset’s tags to verify that they’re physically in the correct location. At the end of this process, you will know which assets need to be investigated.
