A system configured to manage IT assets associated with an entity (e.g., a
company, an institution, etc.), in accordance with one or more
embodiments of the invention. The IT assets may include hardware assets,
software assets, telecommunications assets, and/or other IT assets. The
system enables substantially all of the information relevant to the
individual IT assets to be organized within a single repository
throughout the life cycle of the IT assets (e.g., from order to
disposal). By organizing the relevant information within a single
repository, automation and dynamic system interaction may be leveraged
during the life cycle of a given IT asset to track and/or monitor the
given IT asset with an enhanced efficiency. In some embodiments, the
system may include a common database, and an asset implementation
manager, an asset ownership manager, an asset process manager, a service
manager in operative communication with the common database.
