Tool monitoring

For safety and compliance reasons, tools are monitored to ensure that they are returned to the tool crib when expected and that they are properly maintained and fit for use in maintenance tasks.

In tool searches, you can see the date of the next calibration task for each tool. If tools are overdue for maintenance tasks you can't check them out, but it is possible for a tool to become due or overdue for calibration while it's checked out. As a regular part of your tool management process, you can search by date for tools with upcoming calibration tasks, and you can review the list of tools that were due back but not returned.
