Fixed Assets Management through Alpha program is a process that involves tracking and managing all the fixed assets owned by a company or institution. Fixed assets include properties such as buildings, equipment, machinery, vehicles, and lands that are used in business activities for a long period and are not intended for sale.
Fixed Assets Management through the Alpha program involves several aspects, including:
- Asset Entry: The company must enter all its fixed assets into the asset management system.
- Asset Inventory: The company conducts an inventory of its owned assets and verifies their quantities through inventory using barcode or RFID technology. This approach requires assigning an independent barcode or RFID tag to each asset and using specialized reading devices to input, withdraw, transfer, and inventory assets quickly and accurately.
- Maintenance Tracking: All maintenance and repair work performed on fixed assets are recorded to keep them in good condition and ensure operational continuity.
- Asset Depreciation: The company records the depreciation of fixed assets annually according to legally adopted accounting and tax laws.
- Asset Disposal: In the event of selling or disposing of any fixed asset, the sale transaction is recorded, and the fixed asset register is appropriately updated.
The benefits of fixed assets management include:
- Increased work efficiency and reduction of any unaccounted costs.
- Compliance with accounting and tax regulations when calculating depreciation.
- Improvement of financial planning and strategic decision-making.
- Preservation of asset value and improvement of long-term returns.
Fixed assets management is essential for any company or institution seeking to sustain its operations accurately and achieve the desired growth according to financial and administrative plans.
