Mobile technology is a powerful tool for enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of asset tracking systems. Find out how your organisation can leverage it.
Effective asset tracking is essential if your business wants to maintain its efficiency and probability in the future. However, if you rely on traditional methods such as manual logs and spreadsheets, this process can be time-consuming, prone to errors, and difficult to manage across multiple locations. Fortunately, thanks to mobile technology, there’s no need to rely on these methods.
Here, we explore how your organisation can benefit from real-time updates, enhanced accessibility, and improved accuracy by leveraging mobile devices and apps to streamline asset tracking and management processes and boost efficiency.
Real-Time Updates for Better Decisions
In business, some decisions can’t wait. However, with remote working or meetings outside the office, relevant data isn’t always available. Even when it is, reliance on traditional asset tracking methods might lead to decisions based on out-of-date data. Real-time updates are one of the main benefits of using mobile technology for asset management and tracking.
Whereas traditional methods rely on data entries made periodically, FMIS’ advanced asset tracking software offers continuous monitoring updates on your business assets’ location and status, no matter where you are. This visibility allows you to make informed decisions quickly, improving operational efficiency and reducing downtime.
Improved Accessibility and Remote Monitoring
With mobile technology, your organisation can track assets from almost anywhere, providing you and your employees with greater accessibility and remote monitoring capabilities. Authorised personnel can access the latest asset information from their smartphones, tablets, or other connected devices, eliminating the need for them to be physically present at specific locations.
This aspect of leveraging mobile technology is especially helpful if you need to track assets or monitor high-value or sensitive equipment across multiple sites. FMIS’ mobile asset manager supports this by enabling you to scan assets for easy identification, assign and transfer equipment in the field, complete audits quickly and accurately, and transfer, update, or dispose of assets swiftly. With features like these, you can improve asset security and reduce the risk of loss or theft.
Increased Asset Tracking Accuracy
Human error is one of the biggest challenges of traditional asset tracking systems. Inaccuracies can creep in when employees manually record asset details, update spreadsheets, or log other information on paper. The traditional approach also puts records at risk of discrepancies or being misplaced, which can make it difficult to manage your assets effectively. Mobile technology helps minimise these risks by automating data collection and ensuring accurate asset tracking.
FMIS’ mobile asset tracking solutions offer quick and accurate barcode scanning, equipment check-ins and check-outs, additions to the asset register, fault logging, and identification of misplaced or missing assets. This allows your organisation to stay up to date in terms of its assets, without extra effort or costly additional resources.
Streamlined Processes and Increased Efficiency
Integrating mobile technology into your business’ asset tracking processes can streamline them significantly and allow it to operate more efficiently. With a mobile asset tracking system, you can automate inventory management, reduce your employees’ administrative workload, and improve workflow coordination.
FMIS’ asset tracking software and mobile solutions are designed for greater efficiency. The software’s core and other features speed up the gathering and processing of asset data, asset maintenance, and lifecycle-related processes.
