Asset Data Visibility Loss & Wrong Purchasing Decisions
Definition
Manual or incomplete asset lifecycle tracking results in lost visibility into which equipment is deployed, in maintenance, or stored. Teams cannot quickly answer 'Where is serial #XYZ?' leading to purchasing wrong items, triggering rush orders, and idle equipment.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: Estimated: 5–15% of annual asset acquisition budget (₹50 lakh–₹2 crore for mid-sized manufacturers) wasted on duplicate/unnecessary purchases; 20–40 hours/month excess overtime labor due to rush orders = ₹50,000–₹150,000/month
- Frequency: Continuous across all procurement cycles
- Root Cause: No single source of truth for asset serial numbers and status; manual spreadsheets; lack of real-time location/status scanning
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Railroad equipment manufacturers in India waste 5–15% of asset budget on redundant purchases and poor inventory decisions due to lack of serialization visibility. Real-time asset tracking eliminates duplicate orders.
