Assets Management Software
Assets are an essential part of any business.
They can be anything from physical equipment to software licenses to intellectual
property, such as documents, images, audio content, media files, etc. Correctly
managing assets can help businesses improve efficiency, reduce costs, and mitigate
risk.
ThingsBoard assets management software is a
comprehensive solution that enables you to track, manage, and organize digital assets
throughout their usable life. It provides detailed information about all asset data —
from its procurement stage, continued maintenance, current status, and location, as
well as who is responsible for it. ThingsBoard offers flexibility and scalable asset
management tools that can handle any type and number of assets, from simple to
complex, from small to large.
Processes Behind Assets Management Software
Digital assets management system (DAM) is usually
referenced by customers as "enterprise asset management" or "asset performance
management" systems. This term means an IT asset management software, a platform, a
tool, or an app that enables the following usage scenarios in various industries:
- real-time-location tracking;
- asset usage/utilization tracking;
- asset health monitoring;
- conditions monitoring;
- remaining useful life (RUL);
- predictive maintenance;
- integration with ERP/CRM;
- alerting and notifications.
At the core of digital asset management software
lies the ability to gather data from a variety of sources, such as sensors, RFID tags,
and manual input. The software acts as a central repository for this information,
ensuring it's easily accessible and up-to-date. Once the data is collected, the assets
management system employs advanced analytics to generate actionable insights.
Seamless integration with ERP, CRM, and other
business systems is crucial for IoT asset monitoring. This ensures that information
about physical assets is readily available within the broader context of organizational
operations.
The principles of DAM are the fundamental values
and guidelines that govern the design and operation of the asset tracking software.
They are obtained from the best practices and standards, such as ISO 55000, PAS 55, or
IAM.
