Keep Track of Your Assets

Hardcat's ëAsset Lifecycle Programí Provides Recession-Beating Benefits

Powerful asset management solutions can save organisations 35% on cost of assets over lifecycle

Hardcat, a world leader in Fixed Asset Management solutions, today announced the development of a specific program to help medium-to-large organisations better understand their assets and save money as the credit crunch takes hold.

The Hardcat ëAsset Lifecycle Programí is a comprehensive, enterprise-wide asset management solution that allows assets – from office equipment to company vehicles – to be managed and more effectively utilised throughout the lifecycle process.

Hardcatís ëAsset Lifecycle Programí employs a highly configurable web-based asset tracking solution to deliver cost savings via the ability to accurately locate and redeploy existing assets to where they are needed most, thus limiting the need to buy or produce new ones.

The ëAsset Lifecycle Programí also reduces labour costs, improves profits, and increasing employee and customer satisfaction by ensuring that equipment is readily available and that products arrive at the right location, at the right time, and in the right condition.

ëWhat many companies still fail to understand is that the purchase price is only 25% of the total cost a company will pay for an asset over the course of its life is at the purchase stage,í commented Hardcat Managing Director Dan Drum. ëHardcat specialises in fixed asset management software that controls what assets an organisation has and thus what they are truly worth over the assets lifecycle. Therefore, by participating within the ëAsset Lifecycle Programí and through ongoing tracking processes, companies can reduce the purchase of unnecessary assets, reduce asset downtime, improve productivity - and benefit their bottom line.í

Based on over 20 years of industry experience, by employing Hardcat technology and asset tracking expertise and software, even a relatively small organisation (less than 25 employees) with 500 assets can save nearly 20,000 per annum.

Hardcat enables organisations to accurately identify and track assets by using a combination of barcode and RFID technology. Asset information is recorded via hand-held readers that enable the user to collate data efficiently, accurately and in an organised and efficient format.

Hardcat is not just software; it is a complete solution consisting of field-leading asset tracking software and hardware, coupled with proven methodology to deliver cost savings for companies when they need it most.
