Asset Sharing Engine

Create a foundation for matching asset demand and availability across teams, partners and projects.

The Asset Sharing Engine connects both the supply of available assets and the demand for asset use in one shared context. It helps organizations make assets discoverable, requestable and easier to allocate across projects, teams or partner networks.

By bringing together availability, locations, conditions, stakeholders, requests and approvals, organizations can coordinate how assets are shared and used in practice. Built on Purple Unity Foundation capabilities such as search, authorization, documents and integrations, it creates the trusted sharing context needed to increase utilization, reduce unnecessary purchases and support circular value creation.

Asset and Availability Management

Optimizing Resource Availability through Effective Asset Management

Owners or representatives can easily manage assets and share information about their planning and availability. This includes where, when, and under what conditions an asset is available, ensuring optimal utilization of resources.

Work and Request Management

Enhancing Work and Request Management with Advanced Functional Access

Project owners and interested parties have access to advanced functions for managing requests. Whether it's submitting a new request or searching for suitable resources, the engine offers flexibility. Brokers or representatives can also support these processes.

Search Functions

Streamlined Asset Matching with Powerful Search Functions

The search capabilities within the Asset Sharing Engine are optimized to quickly find the right match between available assets and requests. Users can easily filter by criteria such as location, availability, and specific asset characteristics.

Business benefits

Create more value from underused assets

The Asset Sharing Engine helps organizations make assets available to the right teams, projects, customers or partners. By combining asset information, availability, conditions, requests and workflows, organizations can improve utilization and reduce unnecessary purchases or idle capacity.

Authorization Model

A Robust Authorization Model for Secure Access to Sensitive data

Security and information protection are key. The authorization model ensures that only authorized users have access to sensitive details, making the engine suitable for handling confidential projects and assets.

Communication and Information Access

Facilitating Direct Communication for Efficient Information Access

The engine facilitates direct communication between asset owners and interested parties. Through interactive features, requests for information access can be made, allowing users to quickly obtain the necessary details without disrupting the process.
