Enhanced asset management using an electronic ledger

A computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory containing instructions that, when executed with the processor, cause the computing device to, at least:
• maintain, on an electronic ledger, information associated with an asset, the information comprising an eMEID and one or more permissions for the asset that are modifiable only upon authentication of the eMEID;
• receive, from a user device, a request to perform an action in relation to the asset, the request comprising at least an identifier for the user device;
• retrieve, from the electronic ledger, a current state of the asset;
• determine, based on the identifier for the user device and the one or more permissions for the asset in the current state, that the user device is authorized to perform the action;
• and
• cause the action to be executed in relation to the asset.

A non-transitory computer-readable media collectively storing computer-executable instructions that upon execution cause one or more computing devices to collectively perform acts comprising:

• maintaining, on an electronic ledger, information associated with an asset, the information comprising an eMEID and one or more permissions for the asset that are modifiable only upon authentication of the eMEID;
• receiving, from a user device, a request to perform an action in relation to the asset, the request comprising at least an identifier for the user device;
• retrieving, from the electronic ledger, a current state of the asset;
• determining, based on the identifier for the user device and the one or more permissions for the asset in the current state, that the user device is authorized to perform the action;
• and
• causing the action to be executed in relation to the asset.
