Fixed Asset Tracking With Bluetooth Low Energy Technology

Operational efficiency is ever more important for companies competing in today’s marketplace. For an organization to run smoothly, it depends on streamlined monitoring, maintaining, and managing of items. Regulations, financial pressure, employee efficiency, customer satisfaction, and safety concerns all contribute to the increasing challenges meeting organizations. StickNFind addressed these challenges by introducing the StickNFind Enterprise Beacon in November 2013. "We are excited to launch a new solution for the enterprise that captures the essence of what made the StickNFind location sticker so popular," said Jimmy Buchheim, founder of StickNFind.

StickNFind Enterprise Beacons provide increased battery life and accurate temperature sensing, allowing them to be placed outdoors, if needed. They also allow real-time tracking of inventory, with alerts for shortages or surpluses; the increased inventory efficiency allows users to take immediate advantage and make real-time decisions about stock and quickly locate equipment.

Asset tracking is also enhanced with StickNFind Enterprise Beacons. The beacons reduce human error by automating data collection. They don’t require a line of site or individual scanning, thus cutting down the time needed to locate assets.

The transportation and luggage business will also find tailored aspects to increase safety, efficiency, and reliability. Quality and safety standards are maintained by optimizing traceability, security, and documentation. Temperature management is made easier by the monitoring and recording of temperature throughout transport.

Finally StickNFind beacons can increase security with a credential replacement system, man-down tracking, and proximity based authentication and authorization.
