Notice Title

CivTech 4 C7 How can we use technology to track off-network Council assets at minimal cost

Notice Description

Local Authorities have a multitude of assets in use ranging from ICT devices to wheelie bins. These each carry varying degrees and types of risk (financial, security, and reputational) if lost. Current manual audits and logging processes have proven insufficient and too expensive in accounting for these assets, particularly those that are not connected to a network.
