Dynamic Systems, Inc., a Redmond, Washington software developer specializing in data collection applications for the manufacturing industry has announced the release of a low cost tool & equipment manager program based on bar code technology. DSI has announced the immediate release of “Basic Tool Manager”, targeted for manufacturers who want to reduce the loss of tools, the time searching for them, track equipment maintenance, and inventory. The service scheduler is highly customized and can be used to track and schedule equipment due for maintenance. “I’m impressed with the simplicity and adaptability of your tool and equipment management system. It’s affordable for all companies, even those with just a few employees,” stated Bill Allen, Process Control Consultant. Cost Justification It only takes one minute to check a tool out or in, and if the company’s staff spends even 20 minutes a day searching for tools, the overhead savings is dramatic. “Loss and theft of tools and making sure all equipment is in working order are a major overhead cost that can be contained”. “Our customers see a typical payback for the Tool Manager within 3-4 months,” states Alison Falco, President of Dynamic Systems.
