Using GAO RFID Systems in the Accounting Industry Many of our accounting clients have come to us with questions about using RFID to handle daily business activities. Read on to see how we’ve addressed their concerns. Our responses may get you thinking about how to integrate GAO technology into your operations, too. Question: Our office contains loads of paperwork. We have a hard time keeping track of all these files, and would like to move to digital workflow down the line. What’s the best way to go about this transition? Our RFID Asset Tracking System is the best way to move your space into a digital workflow by tracking the physical locations of the documents that are filed. Many offices are embedding RFID Tags into their documents. The RFID Tags will send signals to strategically-placed Readers within your office. These Readers then transmit important data to a centralized database in relation to the corresponding paperwork. By implementing this system, you’re allowing employees to track boxes of paperwork with ease and efficiency—all in real-time. Our web-based software will let you track and locate specific documents in seconds, so that you no longer need to waste precious time searching through file cabinets and old banker’s boxes—never go searching through boxes of files ever again! Our Asset Tracking System is the document management solution that will allow you to keep every document secure and available, especially when it comes time to auditing! Question: Each year, lots of our expenses go towards purchasing expensive technology that is used around the office. Can GAO help us keep track of office valuables? Absolutely. From computer hardware to sensitive client files, we understand the protection of valuables is top priority in the accounting business. A strong framework must be in place to protect assets and equipment from theft. The GAO RFID Asset Tracking System is the superior choice. Here’s how it works:
- RFID Tags are placed on all valuable items
- RFID Readers are implemented at strategic access points within your office, including entranceways, obscure back doors and stairwells
- Tags alert Readers of their whereabouts as valuables get moved throughout the office
- Managers can track these valuables in real-time using our intuitive, web-based software, even from remote locations
