Asset Management encompasses the practices and procedures for controlling assets in organizations. With no proper Asset Management and Monitoring System, an organization could not manage and monitor the assets efficiently and thus, the exact benefit of the investment could not be determined. Visual Asset Management and Monitoring System (VAMMS) was determined as a project to be developed for Advanced Manufacturing Technology Centre (AMTC), SIRIM Berhad. VAMMS was developed as the essential tool for managing and monitoring the organization’s assets in AMTC. VAMMS provides the capabilities which include tracking of the location, quantity, maintenance status and depreciation status of the defined assets. This project covers the complete development of a software product, including the specification, design, coding and the testing of VAMMS. This project was supported by four software documents based on the DOD2167A Standard. Waterfall Model was chosen as the Software Development Model. VAMMS was designed using UML notation with Rational Rose as the tool, and was developed using ASP.NET. The produced system has the following modules: View Floor Plan Module, Searching Module, Asset Malfunction Report Module, Admin Module, Maintenance Module, and Reporting Module.
