If you need a simple and cost-effective solution with widespread compatibility that is suitable for small-scale tracking needs like inventory in a retail store, asset tracking barcode system is a proper solution. It includes barcode labels attached to assets and barcode scanners tracking them.
Employ GPS technology for tracking fleet maintenance and to track the location of assets, especially useful for vehicles, shipping containers, or other assets in transit. They ensure global coverage, record movement history, and provide real-time monitoring.
Bluetooth or NFC technologies are beneficial for close-range tracking. Track assets within a small area, like tools in a workshop or equipment in a hospital, enjoying the ease of connectivity, low energy consumption and close-range precision.
Harness the durability of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology while tracking your assets. With a greater read range and no requirement for line-of-sight, this tool will retain control even through various materials and in challenging environments where barcodes might be obscured.
Utilize a network of connected sensors and devices for comprehensive asset tracking and management. These systems are ideal for complex environments where multiple asset types need to be monitored in real-time.
Utilizes GPS or other technologies to provide the current location of assets, allowing for immediate tracking and monitoring.
Keeps detailed logs of each asset’s history, including usage, movements, and maintenance records.
Enables physical tagging of assets with barcodes or RFID technology for quick identification and tracking of assets, QR codes, or RFID/NFC tags for easy identification and tracking.
Schedules and records maintenance activities, ensuring assets are properly serviced and reducing downtime.
Sends out alerts for specific events, such as unauthorized movement, maintenance due dates, or when assets enter or leave a designated area.
Offers analytical tools to interpret asset data, providing insights into usage patterns, operational efficiency, and more.
Records when assets are taken out or returned, useful for managing shared or loaned equipment.
Allows setting up virtual boundaries (geofences) and sends alerts if assets move in or out of these areas.
The possibility of asset tracking is actually a lot more beneficial than it can seem at first glance. Implementing a system like this will tackle a range of the challenges you might have faced.
One of the most direct problems asset tracking solves is the loss or theft of physical assets. By keeping track of where each asset is at all times, the system greatly reduces the likelihood of them going missing.
Gain a solid understanding any asset in your business’s possession is used effectively: proper tracking and subsequent analytics will provide clear statistics, preventing underutilization and money waste.
Track maintenance schedules and history, ensuring assets are maintained properly. You will prolong their lifespan, prevent costly breakdowns, and provide better usage and storage organization
End the struggle of not having up-to-date information about your assets. A custom asset management tracking system will unlock real-time data, allowing for more informed decision-making and resource allocation.
Know your operations and assets are safe in the event of a disaster or accident. Recover, locate, and assess the conditions of your assets quickly thanks to the newly-made ATS.
Without accurate data on asset utilization and performance, making strategic business decisions is harder. A custom ATS will tackle this thanks to its advanced analytics, providing unbiased insights and opening a way to more objective decision-making.
The choice of tech stack determines how efficient an asset monitoring system is. One of our main development principles at Blitz Info System is quality code; hence, we don’t keep a place for legacy stack among our skills portfolio.
While developing an asset or fleet tracking software, we unite the best practices of SDLC and the individual approach our work necessitates. You will be involved in the decision-making to the extent you’ll want to, and get a product your business deserves.
This initial stage is all about understanding the specific needs of your business. It involves determining what kinds of assets you need to track (like equipment, vehicles, or products), the scale of tracking (number of items, size of the area), and any special requirements like environmental conditions the assets might be exposed to.
This stage’s goal is tailoring the system to your business and involves discussions with various stakeholders such as IT staff, operations managers, and potential system users to gather a comprehensive understanding of what the ATS needs to achieve.
In this stage, the Blitz Info System team designs the overall architecture of the ATS. This includes planning how the tracking devices, such as RFID tags or GPS trackers, will integrate with the tracking software, and ensuring the user interface is easy to use. It’s also important to consider how the system will maintain data security and comply with relevant regulations. The system design stage sets the foundation for how the ATS will function and how users will interact with it.
This stage involves selecting or developing the hardware that will be used for tracking the assets. Depending on the chosen technology (like RFID, GPS, Bluetooth), this could involve choosing the right type of tags, sensors, and readers. The key is to select hardware that is compatible with the type of assets being tracked and the environment they are in, and to source this hardware from reliable suppliers.
In this phase, the software that will run the ATS is developed. This includes the backend database where asset data will be stored, the tracking logic that will interpret signals from the tracking hardware, and the front-end interface that users will interact with. The software needs to be customized to handle the specific types of data and tracking required by your business, and it should integrate smoothly with any other business systems you use, like ERP or CRM systems.
Once the hardware and software are ready, they need to be integrated into a cohesive system. This involves ensuring that the hardware can communicate effectively with the software, and that the ATS can exchange data with other business systems. During this step, the Blitz Info System engineers ensure data flows seamlessly across all components of the ATS and the system functions as a unified whole.
Testing is a multi-faceted stage where the complete ATS is rigorously tested to ensure it works as intended. This includes functional testing to verify that all features operate correctly, stress testing to ensure the system can handle high loads or demanding conditions, and user acceptance testing to confirm the system meets the needs and expectations of its end-users. This stage is vital for identifying and rectifying any issues before the system goes live.
The deployment stage involves rolling out the ATS for actual use. This is often done in phases, starting with a pilot or trial in a limited area or with a limited number of assets, and then expanding to full deployment. This gradual approach allows for monitoring the systems performance in real-world conditions and making any necessary adjustments or improvements.
This final stage involves writing and submitting technical documentation, which will help your in-house engineers navigate the system and your employees learn how to use the system. This is a point where our active collaboration is over, however, the Blitz Info System development team stays in touch to fix bugs, add new features, or scale the system upon your first request.
