Physical inventory verifies an asset and its details at a point in time. The next move is what makes that record wrong.
Between arrival and retirement, an asset changes hands, rooms, and sites, often with no clear note of who holds it now. Recoup keeps that custody and movement record current. Scan & Validate confirms it in the field, so the next physical inventory does not begin by reconstructing a year of moves.
The moves are small and routine: a transfer handled by email, a custodian who leaves before responsibility is reassigned, a location verified during one inventory and wrong by the next. Together, those omissions create a larger gap. The organization knows it owns the asset, but not where it sits or who answers for it. That gap is what a maintained custody record closes.
Recoup maintains custody history between physical inventories: assignments, transfers, location, and responsibility as teams record them. Scan & Validate tests that record in the field, confirming location, status, and custodian and flagging what no longer agrees. One carries movement history. The other shows where the record and the physical asset have parted ways.
Assignments and transfers recorded as your team makes them, with the responsible custodian, prior location, and new location attached to each move.
Tagged assets confirmed in the field, with location, status, and custodian checked and exceptions reconciled.
Your financial system may carry acquisition cost, depreciation, and financial status. Assigning an asset, moving it between locations, changing custodians, and confirming it in the field may be managed outside that financial record. Recoup carries that operational history around the systems your teams already use. Scan & Validate tests the record against tagged assets in the field.
Assets move through different hands and places depending on the organization. The record still has to show where each one is, who is responsible, and which move put it there.
Show us the asset whose location or custodian is unclear.
