Singing Rock Asset Management by Papertrail
What is it?
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must be regularly inspected for safety and compliance purposes, but as the volume of equipment grows this can put a strain on administrative resources. At the same time, there is a growing need to be able to demonstrate Health and Safety (H&S) compliance in the event of an incident. Against this backdrop, large PPE users are finding that traditional, often paper-based methods of record management are insufficient for their needs.If your job is to keep track of lots of equipment then you face an uphill struggle. And if you have equipment that needs to be tested or inspected on a regular basis, the job is even bigger. Try as you might, records get lost. Inspections are forgotten. Equipment goes missing.
Wouldn’t it be easier if you could store all your equipment information in one place? Somewhere easy to get access, such as in the cloud? And easy to search, use and update? Available from desktop, tablet or smart phone. That’s Papertrail, an all-in-one system for equipment management and maintenance records.
Papertrail was created out of the need to find an easier way to keep accurate records and demonstrate compliance for equipment inspections and audits.
Today, industry-leading partners, SMEs to larger enterprise and public sector organisations and their staff and contractors trust Papertrail to drive business efficiencies and optimise compliance by managing equipment inspections, certification and safety records. We believe, that it is just the start of a revolution in traceability and inspections of PPE, as more features a increasingly become available.
How does it work?
Anything with a serial number, barcode or RFID tag can be tracked and the data sits securely in the cloud, where it can be made available to internal teams or customers, as required.To register any product, you need to create a new record with a unique number and corresponding product information, initiate inspection frequency and instructions for inspections. The system will track all the changes during the lifetime and send automated reminders about upcoming inspections.

What are my benefits?
Being proactive is rarely easy with the systems that most companies currently use for PPE management. However, record keeping on commercially available spreadsheet software, such as Microsoft Excel, is still the norm, and in some cases smaller PPE asset holders may even keep their records on paper.Paper-based records are hard to access and prone to loss and damage, while spreadsheet-based systems entail significant administration effort. Typically, PPE management systems must track several variables per item, including for example:

The Papertrail platform enables remote data entry to create a permanent, one-time, cloud-based record of each PPE item, which can then be updated at any time with inspection records posted on site via a mobile device.
Each record is time-stamped and can be accessed instantly, from anywhere, allowing asset owners to call up relevant compliance information whenever and wherever needed.
