Asset tagging in Kenya

Identification, establishing the real asset population. We walk every room and record what is physically there, including assets nobody knew about. This is what gives you a true count before a single tag is printed.

Verification, checking that population against whatever register you already hold, documenting every discrepancy: assets found but not recorded, records with no asset, misclassifications, and items already disposed of but still on the books.

Tagging, fixing a permanent tag carrying your logo and a unique code number, and scanning it against the asset record in the same pass so the data never has to be re-keyed.

Kenyan tender specifications are specific about register content, and we build to it as standard. Every asset record carries:

Asset tag number · asset description · make, model and serial number · category and sub-category · physical location · department and custodian · date of acquisition · original cost · asset status, in service or obsolete · condition and useful life · open market value where an asset is identified as obsolete · remarks.

On the comprehensive package we add the full accounting layer: depreciation method and rate, accumulated depreciation, net book value, funding source, and structuring for IPSAS or IFRS reporting.

All 47 counties. Teams travel; transport, accommodation and subsistence are itemised and agreed before any work begins. We also undertake tagging in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and South Sudan on project scale.
