Seven end-to-end standard operating procedures, from commissioning a newly purchased laptop through endorsing it with a signed receipt to auditing, repairing and finally retiring it.
Planning a physical count of your equipment, freezing what is in scope, deciding what the count finds, and certifying the result so the register can be relied on.
The quick one-asset handover and return: endorsing equipment to somebody, confirming receipt, requesting a return, checking it back in, and how these relate to full custody records.
Who holds every asset right now, how equipment moves between people, places and outside parties, and what happens when it comes back — the Custody page, transfers, return requests and receiving.
Reporting that equipment is broken, deciding how serious it is, sending it to the Helpdesk queue, and the confirmation step that stops a closed ticket from being mistaken for a working laptop.
