How AssetVoice™ Works
Tagging
Asset existence is verified and tagged with RFID or barcode tags
Locations
Tracking locations are set up. This can include a warehouse, asset, zone, building, room, vehicle, etc
Installation
“Gate” readers and scanners are installed in the locations to capture movement
Software
The AssetVoice™ software is set up and customized based on the client requirements and specifications (e.g. notifications, alerts, maintenance)
Integration
If required, AssetVoice™ can be linked to the CMMS or ERP utilizing integration middleware technology so users can enjoy automated management of change that is cascaded through to existing asset management system
Implementation

RFID explained
What is RFID?
RFID stands for “Radio Frequency Identification”, an action whereby data encoded within an RFID tag / label is captured by a reader via radio waves. The data from the tag is captured by a device and cross referenced with a database to either display or log information, in a similar way to how barcodes work.
How does it work?
RFID tags / labels contain an integrated circuit and an antenna, which are used to transmit data to the RFID reader.
RFID does have many advantages over barcode systems, one prominent advantage being that RFID does not require line-of-sight, whereas barcodes require optical scanning.
What RFID tags and labels are available?
Flexible, adjustable RFID tagged wrist bands secured with an adhesive tab are the most efficient method of tracking patients’ care throughout their hospital stay.
Labels are traditionally more suitable for items such as medication, medicine pumps, heart monitors, wheelchairs and blood transfusion bags as they are durable and have options to be applied directly onto metal.
RFID tags or labels could be used for larger assets such as MRI or X-ray machines. There are various shapes, sizes, materials, and methods for attachment.
How does AssetVoice™ work with RFID tags and labels?
Information relating to the equipment or patient that the RFID tag, label or wristband is assigned to is uploaded and stored in our AssetVoice™ software.
Custom rulesets and workflows are established and set up to automate processes and notify key stakeholders of change – reducing the chance of error and unlocking time and communication efficiencies in processes and general hospital tasks.
Our RFID experts can advise and supply the RFID tags/labels required for the application they will be used in.
