RFID-Based Asset Management at China Tower

Background
 
China Tower, a state-owned communication infrastructure service enterprise, plays a crucial role in constructing, maintaining, and operating communication towers and related facilities. The company, recognized as a "national team" in mobile communication infrastructure, seeks to strengthen its service efficiency by introducing RFID technology to optimize asset management.
 
Challenges
 
  1. The diverse assets scattered across various locations, managed through manual QR code record-keeping and inventory, result in inefficiency and increased error likelihood.
  2. The entire asset lifecycle, from procurement to disposal, involves manual registration, significantly reducing material management efficiency.
  3. Manual processes for asset inspection and maintenance make it challenging to promptly detect and address important asset loss or damage, leading to potential losses.
 
Solution
 
China Tower has implemented an advanced asset management solution using the Chainway C72 RFID reader, achieving comprehensive digital management throughout the entire lifecycle of the company's assets.
 
This innovative approach involves using smart tags as digital identity cards, assigning unified codes to assets across various departments, including procurement, engineering construction, and resource management. Real-time recording of dynamic asset information occurs seamlessly, covering the entire lifecycle from procurement to disposal. In critical stages of subsequent processes, the Chainway C72 ultra-high frequency handheld terminal scans asset equipment tags. This enables intelligent collection, transmission, statistical analysis, and processing of asset equipment information. The result is a streamlined and efficient execution of operations and management tasks, encompassing procurement, warehouse management, construction, acceptance and maintenance, asset transfer, allocation, idle utilization, inventory, repair, and disposal. Data is promptly synchronized to the backend of the asset management system, ensuring consistent alignment between physical assets or processes and the system.
 
Effects
 
  1. Leveraging the Chainway C72 and the asset management system, we have achieved the tracking, traceability, and monitoring of assets.
  2. Standardized operational and management processes ensure 100% consistency between physical logistics and IT system flows, successfully creating a comprehensive view of the asset lifecycle.
  3. The C72's use enables batch and intelligent scanning, significantly improving operational efficiency.
  4. Warehouse material inventory transitions from manual to automatic batch inventory with the C72, resulting in a 35.36% increase in efficiency.
  5. Station asset inventory shifts to one-person, one-key automatic data collection with the Chainway C72, reducing time from 35 to 10 minutes and boosting efficiency by 75%.
  6. Unified coding and centralized operation achieve data consistency and accuracy across specialties, reducing manual entry.
