An Introduction to the BassetPro Enterprise Solution
SageData is based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Overview
Intelligence is key to the success of any project. In this sense, intelligence means
knowledge
- knowing what you have, what is happening, and what issues require attention.
BassetPro
delivers
information that enables critical decisions to be made, and as such, it is a key tool for
managers
at
all levels.
The delivery of information that is timely and accurate requires three steps:
collection,
analysis and presentation.
SageData products are built around automatic identification, with
mobile
units used to ensure that data collection is easy, fast, accurate and complete. This enables
high
levels
of data integrity. A user can rely on the accuracy and timeliness of the reports from this
system
What does BassetPro do?
These systems can be used in any material management situation. They are used to track
fixed
assets, manage warehouse operations, and control dangerous materials.
The asset management variant is used by many Federal Government Departments for tracking IT
materials,
laptops, servers, AV equipment. They are used by the RCMP for tracking weapons, vehicles and
radios,
and
for managing large scale events, including G7.
Who is SageData?
SageData are based in Ottawa, and have been supplying these systems to the Federal Government for more than 25 years. We have supplied nearly every Federal Government Department and Agency, and are currently providing material management services to track materials being removed and replaced on Parliament Hill.
How are these systems configured?
How would you
like them to be configured?
We have installations on our servers, on client networks, or
standalone
(in many cases for high level security). User interfaces can be configured to your exact
requirements.
External interfaces permit information to be exchanged with a variety of backend systems,
including
SAP,
Peoplesoft, and Quickbooks.
Imagine
Once BassetPro is installed and operational, the receipt, deployment, audit and
disposal of
equipment becomes extremely simple. Because asset tags with barcodes or RFID are used to
identify
items,
tracking activity or registering a move or disposal becomes easy, fast and accurate.
Reporting
is
comprehensive and fast. So managers can have a full accounting. You can know exactly what you
have,
exactly where it is, and exactly when it was last touched.
