Inventory System — 1,000+ Tracked Items

Year
2022 – Present
Role
Systems Design & Implementation
1,000+ ITEMS TRACKED
Overview

A structured inventory system built on Sortly to bring 1,000+ parts and materials under consistent tracking. Beyond the initial setup, this covers onboarding colleagues onto the workflow and maintaining it as the system of record for day-to-day stock decisions.

Process
  1. 01Structured item categories and tracking fields for 1,000+ parts and materials
  2. 02Onboarded colleagues onto the workflow
  3. 03Ongoing administration and maintenance
Result

Built in 2022 and still the system of record four years on. That is the result worth stating: an internal tool built by one person usually survives a few months before people drift back to a spreadsheet and memory. This one didn't — colleagues were onboarded onto it, it has been maintained rather than abandoned, and day-to-day stock decisions still go through it. With 1,000+ items, staying accurate is a question of upkeep rather than setup, and the upkeep is the part that lasted.
