Companies across the globe are facing challenges with tracking and monitoring their assets in real-time. allGeo QR Code App for asset tracking can help to simplify this process and helping to be more efficient. Utilizing mobile app-based QR codes means that your employees can record assets transactions while in the field. Assets can be recorded the moment they are manufactured or moved from one place to another, all by scanning a QR code with a smartphone.
This reduces the chance of forgetting to update the losing assets and inaccurate reports. QR codes also help track employee hours, overtime, shift changes, mileage, equipment usage, associated tasks and adherence to safety protocols.

Use of QR Codes in Manufacturing
Monitor Assets and Tasks
Track Tasks and Equipment
Employee Punch In/Out
All manufacturer orders/product batches are identified by QR code or barcode. Shop floor employees scan QR code/barcode with the mobile app to access and record information.
Employees handling tasks can immediately see what steps were completed, what step the work order is on, which QR inspection form(s) are already filled out and which assets are being moved out. All this information is available by scanning the QR code/barcode label on the work order.
Equipment used in manufacturing must follow the equipment code to adhere to certain quality standards and protocols in ensuring the safety of the equipment being used.
However, verifying manufacturing equipment and assets may typically be a cumbersome process. By embedding a URL link to a maintenance website into the QR codes used on heavy-duty and non-heavy duty manufacturing materials, businesses can ensure that tools, equipment and materials are being used correctly so as to minimize errors.
QR code can be used to punch In/Out workers as and when they arrive at the manufacturing facilities by simply scanning the QR code at the job site. If workers forget their mobile phone, or for those who don’t have one, Crew Punching enables supervisors to check them in, either individually or as a group.
Workers who may forget to punch-in or punch-out when they arrive at the job-site or in the evening when they get off, can trigger an alert that will notify the supervisor and will help to address this issue.
Benefits of QR Code for Asset Tracking
Asset fraud prevention
Asset supervisors can scan the asset when they are moved Out/In and also collect any type of inspection data – notes, tasks, signatures, pictures or use custom forms. View data in real-time or generate automatic reports. And trigger alerts on each scan.
Real time visibility
Provides complete visibility into field workers. Supervisor/Admin can see the locations of all workers on a map in real time, enabling them to monitor entire operations and make sure that they are working at the right location and on the right tasks.
Early Punch In/Out Prevention
Workers will not be allowed to punch In/Out early or from different job-sites and pretend to be at the job site. Supervisor/Admin will be notified about this, helping improve the overall efficiency of the team.
