# Snipe-IT overview

Snipe-IT (SIT) is an open-source asset management system. Historically CCM has not mandated a single tool for IT Services. Rather than maintain a large sprawl of near-identical systems without corporate visibility, a shared SIT instance has been provisioned.

## Approach

CCM uses the Full Multiple Company Support (FMCS) feature and LDAP Sync. Future enhancements will see us move from LDAP to SCIM.

We use Entra ID single sign-on via SAML 2.0 for authentication.

The service is hosted on an Azure VM (Standard B2pls v2, 2 vCPUs, 4 GiB memory, Ubuntu 24.04).

## Exceptions

- Endeavour uses a different system at this time; there is no imperative to force a migration.
- Brindabella is running SIT separately and may migrate during the T3 holidays.
- Groves is running SIT separately but is planning to migrate.
- Chinchilla is waiting for its devices to be imported into the shared instance.

## Automations

- On check-in and check-out, a webhook is sent to an Azure Automation runbook.
  - Currently, this action only applies to check-ins where the status is set to **Requires Repair**.

## Integrations

- Jitbit integrates with SIT for asset lookup.
- Jitbit also calls an external n8n webhook. **Details to be completed.**

## To do

- SCIM integration.
- Further automations. These will need to query the SIT API because SIT has a significant limitation on automated actions against external systems.
