Educational Centre Asset Tag and Count

A public Educational Centre located in Madrid, required the support of RGIS. The school has approximately 30 teaching spaces, 20 of which are classrooms, of which 12 are technology classrooms, equipped with 28 computer stations and 8 digital classrooms. Within these spaces, they also have a library, music room, gym, departments and offices, among others.

The educational centre needed to carry out a complete fixed asset inventory of all furniture and electrical equipment throughout the site.

To create a new asset register of every asset within the project’s scope:

  • All furniture including shelves, tables, desks and chairs
  • Electrical equipment including computers and projectors
  • Blackboards, books and instruments
  • To cover all rooms in all buildings
  • To tag all assets with unique barcodes
  • All data to be transferred on to the asset register to enable the educational centre to maintain the information

SOLUTION

The educational centre partnered with RGIS to complete the educational centre asset tag and count project, and RGIS provided the following:

  • RGIS scheduled an experienced RGIS auditor and supervisor to complete the asset count
  • Assets were identified and unique labels were applied to all assets with corresponding name and barcode. Tags placed so that they were visible
  • 72 asset categories were created, belonging to 13 different asset families: Audio-visuals, sports, electrical appliances, tools, instruments, books, cleaning, measurement, furniture, planning, reprography, health and sound
