Enterprise Asset Inventory - How we do it.

image description

With more than 19 years of experience and success, Asset Inventories is the most effective, professional, and cost effective Enterprise Asset Inventory provider in the market. As you can see from our Customer List we' ve performed fixed and high-technology asset inventory work for some of the largest companies and governments in the world, all over the world.

We maintain a full-time experienced inventory staff which allows us to increase inventory efficiency and accuracy by more than 50%. We' ve learned that temporary employees or first-time inventory takers make substantially more mistakes, take longer to complete their tasks, and must redo substantially more of the job - increasing cost and turn-around time without adding any real value. Any possible saving in the hourly wage rate is quickly erased when the job must be done twice.

Quality Project Management

As soon as a project begins, Asset Inventories assigns an experienced, senior Project Manager to administer the project. Our Project Managers have unparalleled experience with physical inventories across a range of industries and at locations throughout the world, and they have mastered the principles of Applied Inventory Science.

Working with our client, our Project Manager conducts a thorough pre-inventory check-list - our "21-day count-down" - prior to starting the actual physical inventory. The Project Manager concurrently assembles the on-site team of Inventory Specialists, carefully selected to include experience relevant to the industry and client's company culture.

Quality Inventory Technicians

All team members are thoroughly briefed and arrive on the agreed start-date with everything they need to conduct the contracted asset inventory. Team members wear uniforms when on the job - the Asset Inventories logo on a blue shirt with khaki pants. This ensures that client personnel will recognize them and cooperate according to published instructions, and not be concerned about security or confidentiality. Because the Asset Inventories team members are all experienced professionals, they are businesslike, well-groomed, courteous, and highly knowledgeable about their mission.

Quality Inventory Data

During the inventory process, the Project Manager routinely performs quality assurance audits, and orders complete re-inspection of assets found to be listed with any ambiguity or error. Inventory tracking records include not only information specific to the assets, but also the date, time and name of the individual who recorded the information. This ensures that each team member accepts personal responsibility and accountability for the accuracy and thoroughness of the job.

The goal - which is consistently delivered - is an asset inventory that exceeds the industry standard of 97% accuracy. Anyone who has been involved in taking a large asset inventory knows that this level of result can only be achieved when the people and systems are well tuned and organized for the task.
