Assets Software

Why do companies need assets software, anyway? As if the potential for significant savings of bottom-line revenues wasn’t enough, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 forced the issue, making public companies more accountable for the accuracy of their financial reporting. The bill was enacted in the wake of corporate and accounting scandals like Enron, and it puts the burden of proof on companies to demonstrate the validity of their numbers, thereby protecting investors from fraud. Failure to comply with this regulation can be extraordinarily costly. IT departments ultimately shoulder much of the responsibility for compliance; they manage the storage of electronic records. Under the terms of Sarbanes Oxley, companies are required to retain their business records for no less than five years.

Regardless of whether we’re talking about a small startup, a nonprofit organization or global brand, they all have fixed assets they’re responsible for managing. Every organization needs equipment to run their business, and knowing the exact location, condition and value of each of those items is imperative. The somewhat startling reality is that many organizations don’t know what fixed assets they own, or what condition they’re in. Items may have fallen through the cracks, so to speak – gone missing and never reported. Meanwhile, a company may continue to pay insurance on these long-gone “ghost assets.” Or perhaps an organization needs specific equipment to run its business, and its recordkeeping has gone by the wayside. Without a maintenance schedule, those items can break down prematurely and require replacement.
