4 industries that benefit from asset management systems
Just how important are asset management systems?
It’s not an overstatement to say that asset tracking is vital for a business’ survival in the modern world. Take away a company’s assets and there isn’t much left. The problem is, criminals know their value, too; making it your job to keep them safe. It's not just criminals who pose a threat either. Employees acting haphazardly, subsequently losing or damaging assets is another area of business safeguarding that should never be overlooked. One security slip up, at best, might leave you reaching deep into your pockets; at worst, it could put you out of business. And let's not forget the emotional cost. A workplace that causes unnecessary stress everyday could drive out valuable employees as well as your own passion for work.
4 main industries that benefit from modern asset management systems
- Car modification and customization
Sales in this industry often move quickly, and managers cannot afford for employees to waste time when it comes to modifying and customizing cars for clients. Our electronic cabinets come with smart software that allows you to add alerts, notifications and access rights to vehicles to ensure only the employee with the right expertise for a particular car can access it. This also helps you keep clients up to speed with a job's progress. - Fleet management
Anyone in fleet management knows how vital it is to comply with current laws and regulations, particularly when it comes to driver safety. Our electronic key cabinets limit vehicle key access to authorized drivers at specific times, and keep a detailed log of when they took a key and why. They also alert you when keys are late being returned at the end of a shift. These capabilities can help you stay compliant, and hold employees accountable if they break the law. - Car rentals
You might require a system that keeps your assets safe day and night while allowing customers the freedom of picking up car keys at a time that is most convenient for them, especially in tourist hotspots where flights might be delayed. Our KEYper Service Express 24 is a 24-hour automated key box dispensing system that operates much like an ATM. Managers place the keys inside it, and customers use a personal code to collect them whenever they wish. - Car dealerships
These businesses face the unique challenge of keeping dealer plates safe. D-tags are the most commonly stolen type of license plate. It's a serious concern because your dealer license could be suspended or revoked if someone takes one from your site and puts it on a vehicle that is not part of your inventory. If caught out by the state dealer license bureau, you could face substantial fines. That is where our KEYper Dealer Plate Extension Cabinet comes in.
Can some systems be used across multiple industries?
Combining intelligent key cabinets with remote software is without doubt one of our most popular asset tracking systems. Ideal for a wide range of industries, it offers bosses greater access control over their assets while helping to keep employees and customers safe. In fleet management, or car sales, rentals or customization, or indeed any industry dealing with vehicles, electronic key cabinets can dramatically reduce the threat of thefts or key loss.
They can drive efficiency through vehicle reservations, as well as employee accountability thanks to detailed audit logs and automatic alerts when cars are not returned on time. You can also use this data to alert the police quicker following a theft, increasing the chances of finding the offender and recovering your asset.
