Technological advancements are making strides in practically every industry our economy is built upon, and stadiums are no exception. Applications, tools, and programs are constantly evolving in ways that serve stadium managers, staff, and visitors alike.
Incorporating asset management technology, security upgrades, and data analytics into everyday stadium operations can increase work efficiency, improve guest satisfaction, and present managers with new cost-saving strategies.
Asset management technology can significantly aid in accurate inventory management for stadiums. Various asset tracking tools allow stadium managers to monitor inventory levels, find cost-saving opportunities, account for damaged items, and enhance administrative control. This way, inventory is constantly updated and maintained to reflect accurate numbers (especially in terms of purchases, inventory usage, and disposal). Inventory management also promotes precise reporting so that management teams can predict when reorders are needed.
Asset management technology can improve stadium operations by adding supplemental security measures to an already developed security system. Integrated cameras and sensors work to prevent unauthorized access to specific stadium parts by monitoring stadium traffic and triggering a notification when movement is detected in off-limits areas.
Added security measures free security personnel to invest more time and effort into ensuring guest safety, preventing theft, and improving visitor traffic flow.
Stadium technology can streamline data collection as it relates to facility operations. With current, organized data, generating reports becomes much simpler than manually. As reports generate, analytical tools can be used to determine patterns, interpret data, and create notifications when a process or incident requires management’s attention.
These real-time reports and notifications are essential to keeping all staff members up to speed on maintenance needs, inventory levels, and asset locations. Staff members can save time and improve productivity while completing work orders.
Technological integration with asset management tools can do far more than manage inventory and track asset locations. With these applications, stadium managers can also access asset-related information at the touch of a button. Stadium software stores information about where an asset is located, the date it was last maintained, the next scheduled maintenance date, warranty information, current functions, and projected disposal or decommission. Asset management software tracks the entire lifecycle of stadium equipment.
Remaining current with technological developments in your industry not only keeps management informed about operations concerns, new solutions, and opportunities to improve the way the entire stadium functions. It also enables owners, management, and staff to work more cohesively toward adopting technologies that will satisfy the greatest need.
