Terminology is key here. I think if you've been looking for 
"configuration management", you'll find a lot about configuration 
management practices in software development.

I searched for "open source asset management" and got some good 
results. I can't make any personal recommendation and I did not 
check to see if they meet your criteria, but here are the ones 
that looked decent and weren't dead.

CalemEAM - http://eam.calemeam.com/
Simple Assets - http://sourceforge.net/projects/simpleassets/
Open Audit - http://www.open-audit.org/
NAMA - http://nama.sourceforge.net/

Hope that helps!
