The template enables you to explore the following processes:
Asset tracking and lifecycle management
Assigning assets to employees
Monitoring equipment locations
Reviewing activity history
Viewing operational dashboards

Collections: The template environment includes the following core collections.
Assets: Stores all equipment being tracked, including the following information:
Asset type
