Welcome to the latest and final Kitroom episode of the year!

In this episode, we’re joined by Rob Stirling, founder of Scannable, whose innovative NFC (Near Field Communication) technology is transforming how businesses manage their PPE and equipment. Whether you’re juggling thousands of items or struggling with outdated systems, Scannable is here to revolutionize your approach to inventory, inspections, and compliance.

Why Scannable is a Game-Changer

For industries managing extensive inventories, the challenges are clear:

  • Manual processes often result in errors, inefficiency, and frustration.
  • Tracking items through outdated spreadsheets or QR codes can be time-consuming.
  • Maintaining compliance with certifications and inspections requires significant effort.

Enter Scannable, the platform designed to simplify and centralize inventory management. Rob Stirling and his team have created a solution that puts safety and efficiency at the forefront.

Highlights from the Episode

Here’s what you can expect from this insightful discussion:

  • The Power of NFC Technology

Unlike QR codes, NFC tags are durable, easier to use, and more reliable. Scannable’s NFC tags store vital equipment data and enable instant access through a smartphone.

  • Seamless Tracking and Inspections

From helmets to carabiners, Scannable lets you manage thousands of SKUs, check certifications, and track inspection histories—all in one app. The result? Inspection times reduced from days to hours.

  • Real-Life Applications

Reax, a training center and Scannable partner, has tagged over 1,000 pieces of equipment. Their instructors use Scannable to track gear across training rooms and ensure compliance, making day-to-day operations far more efficient.

  • Scannable’s Versatility

The platform’s applications extend beyond PPE inspection to include inventory management, location tracking, and even rope traceability.
