If it's used, shared or borrowed, HiveStock™ accounts for it.
HiveStock started on the hangar floor, controlling gloves, abrasives and consumables in aerospace maintenance. But the problem it solves isn't unique to engineering. Anywhere stock walks, runs out at the worst moment, or can't be traced back to a person, HiveStock puts it under control.
Three kinds of stock, one cabinet
Consumables.
Things that get used up: gloves, tapes, toners, cleaning supplies. Every item issued against a named person, with automatic replenishment before anything runs out.
Shared and loan equipment.
Things that come back: radios, chargers, tools, scanners, headsets. Set a due-back time; overdue items are flagged and block the next take until they're returned.
High-value and controlled items.
Things that must be accounted for. Every take and return is recorded with a camera clip, so disputes are settled by evidence, not memory.
