Asset information management Asset management starts with finding out information about the assets your organization has. Questions to answer include the following. What assets does the organization own? What assets does the organization lease or rent? Who is responsible for each asset? Where are all assets located? Are assets being used? How frequently are they used? In the ServiceNow platform, there are several methods for obtaining asset information. After you use a discovery tool to identify assets, you can use tools in the Asset Management application. For example, use the overview reports, view a list of assets in stock, and view a list of unallocated software licenses.
