A system having a variety of mobile assets to which are attached one or more wireless sensors and associated with each mobile asset to automate enterprise software organization of assets among dynamically changing sites. A plurality of receivers receive data from redundant wireless sensors, and at least one gateway aggregates wireless sensor data from the receivers, the wireless sensors, receivers and gateway forming a local network associated with a given site. At least one server hosting enterprise software receives aggregated data from the at least one gateway. The enterprise software identifies the location of an asset based on association of a local network with a site and association of sensors with an asset.
