Internal policies and regulatory compliance such as SOX require that a corporation be able to
actively identify and locate fixed assets declared on their books. A typical enterprise has thousands
of assets such as vehicles, tools, media equipment, laptops, servers, networking gear, furniture, and
laboratory test equipments which are distributed across various locations. Enterprises lack true
visibility because the asset information is typically maintained in disparate systems such as financial
applications (ERP), asset management software and maintenance/calibration software. Often, there
is no correlation between the financial systems and the actual inventory management system.
