End-to-End Asset Management
Our Solutions
When we talk about Asset Management, we realise it is the most valuable part of any Network operator and it touches almost every department in one way or the other.
Each department also interacts with these assets at various times in the asset life cycle over an extended period of time, around 5 – 10 years.

Digitata end-to-end Asset Management
Suite offers the following Value proposition:
- End-to-end visibility of assets and licenses throughout the network lifecycle.
- Centralised visibility and control of projects involving assets.
- Auto-discovery of assets allows for asset tracking and FAR verification.
- Integrated survey solution for asset verification assures quality and integrity of asset information is build into the digitisation process.
Planning Based on Accurate Asset Data
- Asset Management is a continuous process of plan, build and operate.
- Each asset starts with a planning project e.g., Technology Expansion, Capacity Expansion, etc.
- At this stage, no serial numbers or even site names are available, with only a high-level plan of quantity of sites to upgrade.
- End-to-end asset management start at this early stage in the process to ensure that each step is digitised and can be pulled through from concept to final operations.
- Allow for new sites or upgrade of existing sites.
- Allow for placeholders of sites.
- Allow for new planned equipment from Catalogue or BOM (bill of material) templates.
- Process tracking start from list of nominal plan.


Procurement of Asset
- Financial systems capture the actual procurement data from the supplier invoice and PO’s from RFP’s or Catalogues.
- These can often be bundled equipment and do not always allow for components to be captured separately.
- It is important for any asset management solution to allow finest graduality of info to be added without any free-text mistakes.
- Financial system integration
- Asset Catalogue integration from Suppliers
- Analysis on Deployed Asset
Warehousing of Asset
- When assets are received at the warehouse, all serial numbers should have been uploaded before delivery, as delivery should be a confirmation of serial numbers, not newly captured.
- The warehouse is the biggest contact point of all assets as it is the first entry into the operator and the distribution point for project roll-out.
- The following should be considered and catered for in the end-to-end asset management solution:
- Demand Forecast
- Correct Capitalisation
- Asset Correlation on Serial number
- Site Tracking


Visibility of Asset Out in the Field
One of the biggest problems with automation of processes are allowing the user to interact with the data wherever he is with what ever devise he has available. Our mobile application allows for staff or even sub-contractors to download and use the mobile application to interact with the process and capture any information in a structured way. This allows for coherent data with the following benefits:
- Out in the field data verification
- Image Collection/Correlation
- Offline Data Verification
Auto Update As Built
When projects are rolled-out and put into service, documentation is normally at the bottom of the priority list, and details are captured long after the site when into service. This causes a lot of concern for capitalisation and often can be the first source of incorrect information as most of the data are captured and correlated manually. Our solution offers a fully integrated process flow with the following benefits:
- Process Flo integration with Asset Data
- Capture and correlate all relevant asset data from various Departments
- Role-based Process Flo
- Escalation, Notification


Fully integrated Asset and Site Information
Site and asset information are normally stored in the financial system and possibly in various excel sheets. Different departments have different naming conventions for sites and assets are most of the time only linked on a high level. When an end-to-end asset management solution is deployed, this information becomes part of the entire solution and the quality of the asset and site data are build into the process with a feedback of asset auto discovery.
Asset Auto Discovery
The secret source of our end-to-end asset management solution is an auto-discovery of assets via the network configuration data. We extract asset information from the config directly from OSS or network elements and correlate that information back to the asset register. This allows for accurate information of all active asset data that is verified daily:
- Analyse network config data and extract Asset info
- Regular compare and detect changes


Automated Asset Audit (Closed-loop)
Active assets are audit daily with reports on any asset change. This allows for a high level of confidence in financial asset audit with verification if assets are in use and available. Full audit reports of daily activity of assets can be correlated with the financial fixed asset register. Passive assets can also be monitored with the quality of asset data build into the process:
- Everyday Auto Audit
- Automated Capitalisation
- Full Transparency on Assets per site
Capitalisation of Assets
With a full end-to-end audited Asset register, budgeting for upgrades or expansion is more meaning full. Asset values can be tracked and rolled-up of area, region or even town level. Asset values can also be correlated with network performance and revenue to ensure the best application of the available budget for upgrades and expansions.
- Complete Assets Audit
- Verified Active Assets
- Correlated with Finance
