Wireless asset management
Advances in technology are creating new opportunities for organisations seeking to get more out of their assets and pursuing greater efficiencies in their maintenance programmes. Both mobile and remote fixed infrastructure assets are expensive to maintain, and balancing maintenance efforts is key. If maintenance takes place too early, or too often, then this can be costly. The consequences can be even worse if an asset unexpectedly fails.
Wireless asset management enables companies to take a proactive approach. This means the autonomous communication between assets and back office systems that enable companies to monitor status reports, output, service requests, malfunctions and location information for both fixed and mobile assets. Similar technology, combined with powerful scheduling tools, is leading to much more efficient use of mobile assets, from tools to baggage trucks.
Logica has delivered real returns for our clients from the use of wireless asset management to increase utilisation and reduce maintenance costs. We help our clients to monitor the condition of assets, manage inventories of tools and equipment and constantly seek new business applications that can deliver additional value. Our understanding of applied technologies like RFID, GPRS and WLAN has enabled us to deliver real projects to numerous customers. In these new technologies it is experience that counts.
