Why asset management software is so important for the mining, construction and trades industries

Companies in the mining, construction and trades industries often have a huge amount of assets to keep track of. Without a dedicated asset management software platform, this can be very difficult, time-consuming and costly.
At Envision Digital, we have implemented FieldInsight field and asset management software for many companies, who have benefited enormously from the ability to easily and efficiently manage their assets and equipment.
Here are some reasons why using an asset management software platform like FieldInsight is so important for mining, construction and trades companies.
Get a better understanding of the asset life-cycle and costs
A huge part of asset and equipment management is knowing when assets are due for repairs or maintenance and factoring in these costs to your operating budget. Asset management software keeps track of these schedules and costs for you.
Reduce the risk of equipment being lost or stolen
Theft of equipment from construction sites is unfortunately very common. Asset management software makes it easier to keep track of and recover equipment through active and passive tracking methods, such as GPS tracking and QR scannable codes.
Easily locating equipment
For companies that have a lot of equipment, it can be very hard to locate specific assets when needed, or keep track of where everything is. With asset management software, you can see exactly where your assets are in real time.
Scheduling maintenance efficiently
With asset management software, it’s easy to schedule maintenance of equipment at times when the asset won’t be needed, or when there will be another similar asset available. This reduces the chance of not having a particular type of equipment available when you need it.
