A narrow workflow engine scoped to asset tracking alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Aimed at government program directors, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Government Asset Tracker is a workflow engine aimed at government program directors, covering asset tracking. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by monetisation (94) and held back by timing (37). Typical pricing is $4.8k–$103k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in about a quarter for $18k–$39k.
Government teams lose equipment located by asking around. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
Asset tracking handled by a workflow engine, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Connectors exist for systems that were closed five years ago. Government is growing at roughly 10% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| The incumbent suite | Sells a platform; this job is one neglected module inside it |
| A generalist AI tool | No domain grounding, so output needs full human review |
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
Every customer wants their own edge cases encoded, so onboarding cost is the real constraint.
An idea you cannot act on is entertainment. Four concrete steps, wired to tools already running on AltFTool.
