Today's mobile workforce demands that both people and assets move freely throughout the enterprise. As a result, losses due to missing assets and shrinking inventory continue to skyrocket. According to industry sources, employee theft costs U.S. businesses an average of $30 billion annually and is the primary cause for over 20% of all business failures. We offers patented technologies and systems to combat this ever-growing problem, providing total solutions for asset containment, mobile asset management and asset location and tracking. The ActiveTag system is the perfect solution to keeping track of valuable assets within the walls of any facility whether it's the corporate office, a data center, an educational facility or healthcare complex.

Description

The ActiveTag Asset Management system from AXCESS Inc. provides an effective way to reduce theft from both internal and external threats via perimeter-based asset containment. By creating "control point" detection zones at strategic entrance and exit points throughout a facility, tagged items are unable to leave the premises without triggering an immediate alert/alarm notification. Not only does the system provide perimeter protection for the entire facility, but it can also be used within the facility to detect when assets leave certain rooms or specific areas, or enter or leave zones that are designated as off limits, highly classified or secure.

Instant alert/alarm notification of assets at entry/exit points.
Perimeter protection as well as containment within internal rooms or areas.

Mobile Asset Management

Most difficult to track within any enterprise are the valuable assets that are on the move. Using AXCESS¹ flexible "control point" architecture, the ActiveTag system can easily detect and locate mobile assets within the facility. By employing "Functional Linkage", any asset can be assigned to an authorized owner or user to allow one to move freely throughout the enterprise with their assigned asset. However, if an asset is detected without its authorized owner, an alarm event occurs, immediately sending notification of an unauthorized asset movement.

Asset Location and Tracking

Locating or tracking assets that can be either static or in motion, such as wheelchairs or IV pumps in a healthcare facility, servers in a data center or laptops in a corporation, is no easy task until now. To know where these assets are at all times, the ActiveTag system provides a comprehensive resource for locating and tracking assets, whether on the move or sitting still. The system allows users to instantly determine the general location of a tagged asset anywhere within the facility. Installation of "control point" detection zones at strategic locations throughout the facility allows the user to define logical zones and monitor high traffic areas. Tagged assets moving through these control points provide instant location data. In addition, the system can verify that any asset "functionally linked" is accompanied by its assigned owner or user as it moves through the detection zone, and provide instant notification if the movement is unauthorized. When assets are between control points or inside of zones, beacon signals received from tags on a periodic basis help locate an asset or person within a designated zone or area.
