Delivering on the Promise of RFID for Asset Management
BENT SYSTEMS offers its asset management solution on a hosted or licensed model which provides the most flexibility for customers. For customers with highly mobile assets such as laptops or projectors, these assets are not only valuable from a cost perspective, but they are used in the delivery of valuable services. A loss of these assets represents replacement costs, but may also represent a loss of customer trust, satisfaction, or security. In some cases, these assets may contain valuable information that exceeds the physical asset replacement cost in terms of the importance to an organization.
The BENT SYSTEMS asset management solution offers real time tracking of these valuable assets when busy staff members are overloaded, and the assets are distributed. Periodic inventories can take much more time than is desired, and often these chores are only performed occasionally. Frequently, if an asset is missing, it will not be noticed for quite some time without a real time tracking system like BENT SYSTEMS Asset Management Savant.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) promises organizations the ability to easily gain visibility and control of operations at a level unimaginable with previous approaches. With RFID, businesses can keep track of their assets in real time and perform inventory audits in minutes versus days. With real time data on asset location and status, companies can utilize the power of this information to meet government compliance, inventory audit and security requirements.
The capabilities of most current asset management applications are very limited. Legacy asset management applications were not designed to take advantage of the new RFID data, nor manage related business processes and sensor technologies. Upgrading these legacy applications to directly support RFID can be both costly and represent a risk to mission critical business functions. BENT SYSTEMS has an asset management solution to address these concerns.
