xAssets Case Study - Telos

Telos

Telos was advised that support for the asset management software that it was using to manage the laptop provisioning and maintenance contract would be discontinued. Consequently, Telos began a search for a new solution in mid-year. As part of the search for a new solution, Telos vetted the xAssets Enterprise Asset Management solution. During the presentation made by xAssets, it became clear the comprehensive solution could provide all of the required functionality available from competing software products, but at a lower cost and with less overheads. Following a comprehensive review of potential software products Telos selected the xAssets Enterprise Management Solution, which includes all functionality from our two main solutions: xAssets IT asset management software, and xAssets Fixed Asset Management software.

Customized without Complications

Telos had developed a list of functional requirements that needed to be meet by the xAssets software. Using the xAssets Enterprise framework, Telos-specific menu items, queries, profiles, integrations, data movements, triggers, business rules, reports, forms and processes were configured from within the user interface. This design phase included configuring the asset register to allow multiple profiles, and incorporating Telosspecific menus, reports, queries, forms and dashboards. In addition, the warehouse, help desk and shipping functions were integrated. In this way Telos was able to use a single, integrated system to create and issue purchase requests, track the availability of parts in the warehouse, allocate parts to a specific repair and automate the entire shipping process.
