How to Harness the Transformative Benefits of Open Source Software

In today’s data-driven world, fleet management companies and service providers are quickly recognizing the importance of investing in analytics platforms to gain valuable insights. According to Grand View Research, the global advanced analytics market was valued at USD 34.56 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 21.1% from 2022 to 2030. Despite the significant adoption rate of analytics solutions, many companies struggle to effectively utilize the data they collect without recognizing the benefits of open source software. 


Luckily, Access Control Group’s (ACG) industrial internet of things (IIoT) business intelligence platform, AssetPro 360, is enabling organizations in reaching their full data potential by eliminating wasted resources and missed opportunities. AssetPro 360’s comprehensive cloud-based platform offers an intuitive interface with real-time actionable insights to assist fleet managers and other personnel to harness the power of data to drive safety, efficiency, productivity, and cost savings in the industrial industry.

Streamlining Data Analysis with a Comprehensive Ecosystem of Open-Source Software for Big Data Management

AssetPro 360 understands the challenges businesses face when it comes to analyzing data scattered across multiple software programs. Companies often find themselves sifting through various systems like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), and Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS). The thought of adding another platform, such as AssetPro 360, might seem daunting.

However, what sets AssetPro 360 apart is its open-source nature and compatibility with any business software. Utilizing open API capabilities, AssetPro 360 seamlessly integrates with existing software systems, providing fleet managers with a unified, comprehensive view of their important data. This eliminates the need for time-consuming data consolidation and empowers businesses to make informed decisions quickly.

As businesses often struggle to leverage their data effectively, they miss out on valuable insights. Forrester reports that between 60% and 73% of all data within an enterprise goes unused for analytics. AssetPro 360 addresses this issue by providing an open API that allows seamless data integration across different software applications.

Imagine combining AssetPro 360 with an ERP system. Fleet managers can access critical data such as inventory levels, sales, and financial information, alongside real-time insights on safety compliance, asset usage, and maintenance requirements. This integration enhances operational efficiency, eliminates data silos, and empowers businesses to make data-driven decisions in real-time.

Similarly, incorporating AssetPro 360 with a CMMS system enables fleet managers to streamline maintenance workflows. By integrating maintenance data from AssetPro 360 into the CMMS, companies can automate work orders, track asset performance, and optimize maintenance schedules, ultimately increasing uptime and extending asset life cycles.
