Quality inventory management is an important aspect to maintaining situational awareness during events. Track inventory that is issued, turned-in, and consumed during incidents and events with Salamander’s interoperable INVENTORY APP. Assure that your equipment is properly maintained and reported on from within the INVENTORY MANAGEMENT equipment database through SalamanderLive™. Issue mode: From a mobile device, the app user can scan a Salamander personnel TAG and then scan one-to-many equipment TAGs to assign equipment to that personnel. The fixed assets will decrement in SalamanderLive as they are assigned to show they are active in the field. Return mode: Equipment can be returned to your inventory by scanning the equipment TAG. When equipment is turned in, the quantity on-hand is incremented and reflected in SalamanderLive.
