A·IQ Asset & Operations Management | Asset Registry

Every asset. One source of truth.

Most facility teams have asset data scattered across spreadsheets, Access databases, BAS hierarchies, and PDF binders. Nexus Asset Registry consolidates everything into one queryable record per asset location, history, documents, and condition.

02 / Capabilities

What it tracks.

Four data dimensions, all queryable, all linked to work orders and Signal data.

Identity

Asset record.

Make, model, serial, install date, warranty, criticality, runbook, photo. Versioned. Audit-logged.

40+
standard fields per asset · extensible
Hierarchy

Site → Floor → Asset.

Standard hierarchical model with parent-child relationships. Roll up cost, downtime, and PM compliance to any level.

Documents

Document linking.

Manuals, schematics, warranty docs, calibration certs attached to the asset, not lost on a shared drive.

Spatial

CAD location.

Asset placed on floor plan and BIM model. Click the AHU on the drawing, get the asset record. Click the asset, see it on the drawing.

03 / In Practice

How asset data flows.

A new chiller install: equipment data ingested from manufacturer JSON, install date set on commissioning, warranty terms ingested from the contract, BACnet device discovered and bound, and the asset is queryable end-to-end the same day.

05 / Security

Your data. Your infrastructure.

On-premise by default. Cloud-deployable when required. Your facility data never leaves your network.

TLS everywhere, secrets in vault, row-level security on every query. Containerized and isolated so one service going down never takes the rest with it.

06 / Reference

Common Questions.

Engineer and operator questions on this capability.

01

How is data imported?

CSV bulk import, BACnet auto-discovery, REST API, manual entry, or BIM/IFC ingest. Most clients combine BACnet builds the hierarchy, CSV adds the metadata.

02

Can we query the registry from outside Nexus?

Yes. REST and SQL access (read-only by default, configurable RBAC). Most clients pull into BI tools or build custom dashboards.

03

Versioning and audit?

Every change to an asset record is timestamped, attributed, and reversible. Required for ISO and regulated environments.

04

Limit on asset count?

No practical limit. Largest deployment is 180,000+ assets across a multi-site portfolio.

Pair with these.

Asset registry is the foundation. Work orders, planning, and spatial all reference it.

Consolidate your asset data.

Send us a sample of your current asset register (CSV, Excel, or whatever you have). We will import it, layer in BACnet discovery, and show you the consolidated registry.
