Radiant RFID announced that it has partnered with the Texas Department of Public Safety to track more than $1 billion in assets.
The department will utilize Radiant RFID’s asset management solution and tracking tools to manage and track the locations of their diverse and mobile inventory of assets such as computer equipment and protective gear.
New online asset transfer functionality eliminates paper forms and manual entries previously required to transfer equipment and assets, as people and their items moved from department to department. An email is sent to the receiving department’s property custodian, which then accepts or rejects an asset transfer request.
Utilizing RFID technology from Motorola/Symbol, Radiant’s Virtual Asset Tracker enables monitoring of all types of assets used by the the department. Radiant RFID’s system also keeps a detailed history of where the asset has been and where the asset is currently located.
Prior to the deal, the Texas Department of Public Safety worked with Radiant RFID to track evacuees during hurricane evacuations and to monitor various emergency management equipment and related mobile devices.
