The challenge

IT asset registers that live in spreadsheets and break on day two

Most IT teams track assets in spreadsheets that go stale the moment someone moves a laptop. By audit time, the register does not match reality, depreciation is wrong and nobody knows where half the devices are.

No visibility on where devices actually are

Laptops, monitors and phones get reassigned, moved between offices or left in drawers. The spreadsheet says one thing, reality says another. By the time an audit happens, the register is fiction.

Depreciation tracked separately from the asset register

Finance has depreciation in accounting software, IT has serial numbers in a spreadsheet, and neither matches. Book values are wrong, disposal timing is guesswork and tax reporting requires manual reconciliation.

No lifecycle management from procure to dispose

Assets are purchased, deployed and eventually disappear. There is no structured process for warranty tracking, refresh cycles, return handling or disposal documentation. Equipment reaches end of life with no plan.

Compliance and security gaps from ghost assets

Devices that have left the organisation but remain on the register create security risks. Assets without documented disposal create compliance gaps. A live register that tracks every movement closes both.

IT register

Every device, every detail, always up to date

MapTrack maintains a live register of every IT asset with hardware specs, purchase details, warranty status, assignment history and current location. QR labels on each device allow instant identification and audit verification with a phone scan.

  • Serial number, model, specs and purchase details per asset
  • QR code and barcode scanning for fast identification
  • Assignment history with employee, department and location
  • Warranty expiry tracking with renewal alerts
  • Document attachments for invoices, certificates and policies
Asset tracking

Lifecycle & disposal

From procurement to secure disposal, documented end to end

Every stage of an IT asset lifecycle is recorded: procurement, deployment, reassignment, repair, revaluation and disposal. When a device reaches end of life, MapTrack manages the disposal workflow with documentation for compliance, data security and financial write-off.

  • Lifecycle stages: procured, deployed, in repair, disposed
  • Disposal workflows with reason, method and documentation
  • Depreciation and book value updated through to write-off
  • Audit trail for compliance and data security requirements
  • Reports exportable for finance, compliance and insurance

Get started

How IT teams roll out MapTrack

Most IT teams are tracking assets in MapTrack within two weeks. Start with one device category, import your register and expand from there.

Week 1

Import your IT asset register

Upload your existing device list from spreadsheets or export from your current system. MapTrack creates a live register with hardware details, purchase data and depreciation parameters.

Week 1-2

Label and configure

Apply QR labels to devices. Configure depreciation methods, assignment workflows, warranty alerts and audit schedules. Set up user roles and permissions.

Week 2-3

Roll out to IT team

IT administrators start managing assignments, audits and disposal from MapTrack. End users see their assigned devices. Finance gets depreciation and cost reports automatically.

Key features for IT asset management

Everything an IT administrator needs to track, assign, depreciate and audit hardware assets.

Know where every device is

Spreadsheet IT registers are already wrong by the time you save them

MapTrack maintains a live register with assignment tracking, scan verification and depreciation. Your IT asset data is always accurate, always auditable.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about IT asset tracking, hardware lifecycle and compliance.

What IT assets can MapTrack track?
MapTrack tracks any physical IT asset, including laptops, desktops, monitors, servers, network switches, routers, access points, printers, phones, tablets, UPS units and peripherals. Each asset stores hardware specifications, purchase details, warranty information, assignment history, depreciation schedule and condition data. QR labels and barcode scanning make identification and audits fast.
How does MapTrack handle IT asset assignment and check-out?
MapTrack records which employee or department has each IT asset, with full assignment history. When a laptop is issued to a new starter, the assignment is updated with the date, recipient and any condition notes. When equipment is returned, it is checked back in with condition recorded. This creates a complete chain of custody for every device.
Can MapTrack track asset depreciation for IT equipment?
Yes. MapTrack supports straight-line and diminishing-value depreciation for IT assets. You set the purchase cost, useful life and residual value when an asset is added, and the system calculates current book value automatically. Depreciation reports can be exported for finance teams and end-of-year tax reporting.
How does MapTrack help with IT asset audits?
MapTrack makes IT asset audits faster by providing a live register of every device, its location, assignment and condition. Auditors can scan QR labels with a phone to verify each asset against the register. Discrepancies are flagged instantly. Audit reports export in standard formats for compliance and financial reporting.
Does MapTrack integrate with IT service management tools?
MapTrack provides an open API for integration with IT service management, helpdesk and procurement systems. Asset data, including hardware details, assignment, warranty status and maintenance history, can be accessed programmatically. This allows IT teams to link physical asset data with their existing ticketing and procurement workflows.
