Corporate IT
As a corporation, outside of the intangible and intellectual assets residing in the heads of your employees, there is nothing more valuable than your information technology assets. Yet misplacement and even outright loss of IT assets is a huge problem, and the increased prevalence of mobile computing assets has only exacerbated the tracking burden.
Corporations around the world are beginning to realize the tremendous benefits of IT asset tracking systems utilizing RFID technologies. Here are just some of the benefits already being enjoyed today:
Physical Inventory: A precise "push of the button" count of designated assets in your offices at the end of each month, quarter, or year will significantly reduce cost (both financial and in man-hours) associated with performing physical asset counts and other related activities.
Locating Assets: Real-time visibility to locate assets that have a tendency to move around or be "borrowed" between locations. This will not only speed up the process of locating assets, but also minimize the costs of both asset hoarding and over-purchasing of certain assets because someone thought something was gone. Additionally, the system can identify exactly who the asset was last used or moved by, thus streamlining the recovery process.
Security / Theft Prevention: An alert can be sent whenever a designated asset is not located within the proper area. The sooner the alert can be provided, the better the chances are that the asset can be found. The value of the information stored on your IT assets is worth protecting.
(*According to a 2002 Computer Security Institute and FBI Computer Crime & Security Survey, the theft of a laptop results in an average financial loss of $89,000 (only a small percentage of which relates to the hardware cost).)
Asset Maintenance: Keep an accurate record of when each asset needs to be maintained, serviced, or replaced, thus reducing downtime and costly equipment failures. Cannibalization of assets occurs frequently, yet you need to be able to identify leased equipment in a timely manner in order to ensure proper configurations to avoid end of lease penalties.
