Mobile asset management

The challenges of asset management

The challenges to those managing a network of geographically dispersed assets are many and include:

  • Managing assets on risk profile basis, ensuring that investment is directed in the best possible way
  • Keeping track of inspections to be done and the impact on business risk if they are not done on time
  • Managing workload to ensure that utilisation is maximised but time spent is minimised
  • Ensuring that the workforce are properly briefed on all current health and safety policies and procedures before work in the field is carried out
  • Ensuring that the workforce captures all the information necessary, so that additional inspections are not needed when this information is later found to be missing
  • Ensuring that the workforce captures the information in the correct format avoiding the duplication of similar types of information and the complications for reporting that this creates
  • Managing the collation and reporting of disparate items of information, including text, measurements, photographs and sketches
