How Does Your Business Manage its Offsite Assets?

Most, if not all, businesses will have technology and equipment which employees will take away from the office environment for work purposes. Whether this is a company mobile phone or a work laptop, it probably costs a significant amount of money and would be a financial burden if you ever needed to replace the item. Therefore, keeping a comprehensive list or registry of your equipment and their whereabouts and usage is crucial. The same goes for all equipment in a warehouse or factory, whether they’ve been taken off the premises or even just to a different area of the workspace to carry out a task.

Does your organisation know where their assets are at all times and, if not, how can you manage them competently and how will bumping up your asset tracking benefit your business?

When is it Time to Upgrade to an Industrial Printer?

Industrial printers, however, are manufactured with even the most demanding of environments in mind. Zebra printers assure you a higher speed and volume of printing, which enables business-critical printing with improved reliability and quality.
