[labnetwork] Inventory Management System

[Jugessur, Aju S]

Jacob,

We are using bookitlab for almost 6 months now and it is working well. It has all sorts of capabilities and we are using the inventory management feature as well. There is an app for it too but users mainly use it to schedule tools and check tool status etc.

Our staff manage the inventory on a weekly basis and since we are a medium size facility, it is not an issue for us right now.
Please let me know if you have other questions about bookitlab.

Thanks
Aju

Hello All,

I’m curious to know what people are using for inventory management in your respective facilities. I’m sure the responses will be quite diverse. I can image many people are either using an Excel sheet or maybe something built into their lab management software. We utilize Badger LMS here and it has inventory capabilities; however, it is a bit cumbersome. I was hoping someone has found something that integrates well with mobile devices, maybe app driven. As we have grown our facility, inventory management has become a more complex beast. Also, I’d be curious who manages your inventory. Do you have a dedicated person or is it a team effort? Is it staff driven or do your users participate in any way?

Happy new academic year to all!

Best regards,
Jacob
