CenterStone’s asset management functionality is a term that should not be confused with investments made by banks and financial institutions. Asset Management is rather any real (or virtual) asset that an organization deems valuable enough to plan for and track in a database. Assets can be people, equipment (lab, emergency, IT, printer), furniture, fleet, hazardous material or infrastructure (parking lot, landscape, bridge) or even knowledge associated with an employee. CenterStone allows you to plan for and track these assets, both in a database and graphically show their location on a floor plan. Therefore, you can:
- Reduce the cost of maintenance and repair
- Preserve significant asset value and optimal operational condition
- Analyze and report asset costs and predict asset lifecycles so you are not paying for costly repairs at the end of the asset’s lfiespan
- Plan and manage capital investments and operations
- Integrate facility and asset information in order to budget more accurately
- Import asset information into CenterStone directly from CAD files, CD libraries or CAPS™ files
- Assign any assets to HR, structural units (regions, buildings, floors, spaces), business units or cost centers
- Calculate the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of all assets within a particular location or owned by an organization unit
- Quantify the cost of maintaining assets for a building, whether owned or leased
- Control inventory and report charge-backs for optimal asset ROI
- Calculate accelerated depreciation by building components as opposed to straight line depreciation for an entire building.
CenterStone allows all of your asset history, maintenance records, work orders, suppliers, labor and material costs available wherever you need it; on your laptop or PDA.
