Businesses where daily workplace operations take place in equipment-heavy industries such as oil and gas, mining, rigging, construction, and aviation handle challenges of tracking and monitoring their asset movement deployed outdoors. This is followed by the critical task of handling regular maintenance history, assessing damage, delays, etc. of where assets are moved. Scheduled activities such as preventive maintenance (PM) tasks that are based on operational time, calendar days, or meter values need to be systematically drafted and adhered to. Further, many organizations also struggle to maintain high-performing equipment which results in losses of millions of dollars in lost production and unnecessary ad-hoc maintenance expenditures. Further businesses in this niche encounter-
- Various unreported damages, vandalism, and burglary of machinery on site.
- Cumbersome manual tracking and inaccurate assessment of damage/wear and tear.
- Lack of visibility in optimal usage and deployment of assets on the field and no tab on time lapses.
- Greater response times to queries to customers concerning progress, completion, etc.
- Higher capital and working costs and slower returns on investment
Addressing the mentioned challenges begins with the implementation of an asset management system, a system that has been successful in facilitating many organizations in saving a lot of money and reducing notable administrative manpower. Asset Management System is a set of best practices that involves the identification, discovery, procurement, management, monitoring, and disposal of all assets in the organization. The key feature of an asset management system is its centralized data made available through the software s mobile app which makes it convenient to check and update information on the go.
