Asset Tracking
Fixed asset tracking system for Tanzanian teams.
A fixed asset tracking system for Tanzanian teams: tag tools, equipment, IT hardware and movable plant with QR, barcode, RFID or GPS, record every check-out, and get a live, audit-ready register instead of a once-a-year spreadsheet.
Pain points
Problems we solve
→Tools "borrowed" never come back.

FAQ
Frequently asked
What is a fixed asset tracking system?
Software plus tags (QR, barcode, RFID or GPS) that record where each asset is and who holds it, updating on every scan or movement — so you have a live register instead of a once-a-year spreadsheet.
How are assets tagged?
QR or barcode tags for most items, RFID for bulk scan-to-count, and GPS on high-value movable plant such as generators and site equipment. You can mix all four across one register.
Does it replace my fixed asset register?
No. A register calculates depreciation and book value for the accounts; tracking follows location and custody. Most organisations run both, with tracking feeding a verified count back to the register.
Is it suitable for an NGO or donor audit?
Yes — book-to-floor verification, tag-based counts and a timestamped custody trail are exactly what a donor audit asks for.
Can I run an audit from my phone?
Yes — scan tags on a mobile device to verify a count, check items in and out, and update records on the floor rather than back at a desk.
How much does asset tracking cost in Tanzania?
Asset tracking starts at TZS 35,000/mo (up to 100 assets), with a Business tier at TZS 150,000/mo, billed in TZS with a TRA-EFD VAT invoice. Tags are quoted per deployment based on your asset count.
