TrackIT launches Corporate Asset Tracking Solution on Cloud

TrackIT Solutions, pioneer in RFID solutions in the Middle East, launched EnTrackAsset, a complete RFID and Barcode enabled Corporate Asset Tracking Solution on Cloud during the R.F.I.D World Middle East 2012 trade show and exhibition at Abu Dhabi.

EnTrackAsset is targeted at businesses, facing difficulty in tracking their fixed assets, which may be in a single location or distributed in multiple locations. It delivers the business benefits of effective asset tracking, without the burden of heavy infrastructure and capital investments.

Mr. Soma Sekhar Vedantam, CEO of TrackIT Solutions FZ LLC, said, "The application is on the Cloud, so it incurs very little capital expenditure. This is a convenient 'pay-per-use' service where the clients can make easy monthly payments. The clients don't need any other IT infrastructure except a computer and access to the internet. The servers/ data base licenses will be managed by TrackIT. Therefore, practically, the system can be operational right away."

Emphasizing on the strong uptime for the solution, he explained, "Since the application will be maintained by TrackIT, any issues in the application will be attended to immediately. As the process includes the use of hand held readers, we also provide 24/7 remote support for hand held devices."

"EnTrackAsset streamlines and automates the process of corporate asset tracking from the asset acquisition stage to its disposal. It helps in effectively managing an organization's physical assets and keeps an effective inventory of assets they own, and how those assets are used throughout. Companies can use EnTrackAsset to reduce their operating costs, decrease maintenance costs, and optimize asset utilization. Our system works great for periodic asset audits. As it is hosted, the updated data can be accessed from anywhere anytime" he added.

How EnTrackAsset works

The system proposed consists of two components: Mobile Handheld readers & Web enabled software application. The web enabled application houses the information about the assets, where as the hand held component would complement this information by providing the necessary accurate and the most 'current' information to update the data in the web application. The result is that, the latest up-to-date information about the assets can be pulled from the application at any given time from anywhere, once one has authenticated access to the system.

The assets can be tagged with Ultra High Frequency passive RFID tags or barcodes. The tag IDs are associated with the assets in the system. Once this association is done any reconciliation information on the ground with respect to the assets can be captured on the field by the hand held device and can be synchronized back into the web enabled system thereby ensuring the the 'reconciliation'.
