Tools

A tools inventory helps you keep track of all the tools your team uses. It includes things like the tool name, part number (SKU), photo, who made it, model and serial numbers, where it’s stored, and who’s responsible for it.

Having an organized list makes it easier to:

  • Know what tools you have and where they are
  • Prevent loss or theft
  • Plan for repairs or replacements
  • Stay on budget
  • Work more efficiently
