The APIPRO Tools Management Module controls the flow of tools used in your maintenance activities. The flexibility of the module means, however, that you can use it for any kind of lending transaction in the company. The idea of controlling such transactions is to know who is currently holding each tool and when it is expected to be returned. Furthermore, the location system lets you know where you can find the tool and the current quantity you have at disposal.
The Tools Management module will provide an extended control of tools, eliminate paperwork and save money. APIPRO users of the Tools Management module have obtained significant cost savings on tools, simply because tools are now in the right place at the right time. Improved control of the tools has also meant an improved service level for the daily users of the tools.

Based on the tools basic data it is possible to lend tools directly to APIPRO work suppliers. For each transaction the expected return date can be defined in order to eliminate everlasting lending. Returns are easily registered on the list of active lending transactions for each work supplier. Historical information of former lending transactions are directly available on screen. It is possible to create reports of overdue lendings per work supplier or even of future returns. Each type of tool can be tracked individually and a more exact service can be provided more easily, just by running the lending survey for the specific type of tool needed.
