2023: Presentation of SimpleOne ITAM

SimpleOne presented its solution on December 25, 2023 - SimpleOne ITAM. The product allows you to standardize and automate processes, ensure an effective return on the use of assets, simplify the fulfillment of tasks related to asset management, as well as improve the quality of management decisions made on assets. Using SimpleOne ITAM will enable companies to have an automated asset accounting process: meet company business needs, meet regulatory requirements, and optimize infrastructure costs.

{{quote "Many companies face inconvenience or lack of unification of accounting for IT assets, fragmentation and non-transparency of tasks for their inventory, which can often lead to unnecessary purchases and additional financial costs. Effective IT resource management is an important task that can be solved with SimpleOne ITAM, "said Sergey Chukanov, CEO of SimpleOne. }}

SimpleOne ITAM is designed to manage assets and related entities throughout their full lifecycle, from strategic planning and budgeting, demand collection, acquisition reconciliation, through procurement, supply, operation to write-off and disposal. Consumers of the product will receive a tool to help improve the quality of accounting for various types of assets - both directly the IT assets themselves: equipment, logic elements, consumables, software and hardware systems, software, and any other objects (resources of the organization) that are of value to the main activity.

Developing operational accounting of assets, in addition to formally ensuring the automation of standard procedures (the so-called IMACD), we primarily focused on the user experience of specialists involved in accounting for assets, a large number of asset records. To do this, we have also created dozens of specialized widgets aimed at facilitating and increasing comfort in performing routine operations, said Evgenia Asoskova, owner of the ITAM product.

The capabilities of the first release of the solution include everything necessary to organize operational accounting of assets:

• Record asset records in the Asset Management Database (AMDB) in conjunction with the CMDB of the SimpleOne platform.
• Creation and structuring of the nomenclature directory, definition of characteristics that will be distributed to assets of a particular nomenclature.
• Asset registration and expense accounting of asset batches.
• Asset management, including warehouse accounting and inventory.
• Track changes in asset status and attributes.
• Initiation, coordination and fulfillment of the tasks of changing assets: registration, issue to the consumer, modernization, repair, inventory, change of the materially responsible person, change of warehouse, write-off, disposal, transfer to the external environment.
• Accounting of documents confirming operations related to assets.
• Management of contracts by assets, including registration of contracts, their approval and control of the terms of contracts.
• Integration with SimpleOne ITSM product processes.

The next releases of SimpleOne ITAM will include budgeting, including budget execution control, demand collection management, procurement process, and asset and contract cost allocation.

The approach to organizing the SimpleOne ITAM architecture is based on the correct use of the tools of the SimpleOne ESM platform, for example: assets are not directly configuration units, but can use CMDB, and the ITAM product can be installed separately, or in seamless conjunction with any other solution (ITSM or other custom application) on the SimpleOne platform, which allows for the required flexibility in automating ITAM and ITSM processes of any complexity. noted Andrey Vishnyakov, Director of Business Products, ITL Expert, ITL 4 MP, SL.

SimpleOne ITAM immediately out of the box has the functionality necessary for organizing ITAM practices, which allows you to immediately gain value from using the solution in place. At the same time, the almost limitless possibilities that are embedded in the low-code SimpleOne platform allow you to quickly change business logic, implement a solution and customize it to the needs of your business without involving a vendor.

We use innovative methods of distributed data processing within the ESM platform, providing multithreaded processing of assets in ITAM tasks. This has been proven by many tests on large amounts of data. The ESM platform SimpleOne and ITAM provide the ability to customize for specific business processes using no-code/low-code tools. This means that you can easily adapt the system to your unique needs, told Nikita Mironov, a leading developer of business solutions.
