ToolWatch Puts You Back in Control

Tool management without guesswork

ToolWatch gives you real-time visibility from warehouse to jobsite, so crews always know what’s available, where it is, and who’s using it. No more phone tag or missing spreadsheets.

ToolWatch Keeps Your Inventory in Check

Eliminate manual inventory checks

Manual inventory tracking isn’t just slow—it’s risky. Tools go unaccounted for. Projects stall. Costs creep up. ToolWatch replaces outdated inventory processes with real-time Bluetooth scanning and automated updates, giving you total visibility across jobsites and warehouses. You’ll reduce tool loss, speed up job costing, and keep crews moving—without adding to their workload.

Universal Map

Track every asset with accuracy

With ToolWatch’s Bluetooth-enabled tracking, asset movement is captured the moment tools arrive on site, leave a trailer, or shift locations. From compressors to hand tools, you’ll know what’s where—instantly. Custom alerts help you flag maintenance needs or missed check-ins before they become problems. And as your operations grow, ToolWatch scales with you—delivering the insights you need to manage inventory smarter and extend asset life.

Advantages

arrow-circle-right Stop financial bleed from stolen, misplaced, or unreturned assets.
arrow-circle-right Eliminate time spent searching for tools. Get crews what they need, faster.
arrow-circle-right Automate reporting and asset transfers to save time and reduce admin.

We really like the ease of use. The management of all our tools and consumables is superior from our last program. Customer service has been phenomenal!

We didn't know how many tools we had or where any of them were. It was tool in, tool out and had a very loose billing structure. We didn’t even know how many assets we actually had as a company.. We found great value with ToolWatch.

The ToolWatch system has become an essential part of our company because we can very easily keep track of tools, equipment, and materials in real time. We can quickly see where all our assets are and make sure the jobs won’t experience delays if they need anything.

We’re anticipating $750,000 to $800,000 worth of tool utilization this year. Not all of that is added profit, of course, but we are tracking our tools better and not spending money on tools we don’t need. Now we are job-costing these items instead of sweeping them into a black hole of overhead.

The Sage 300 CRE system worked, but we wanted to up our game. … We now know what we need to charge our customers. Before ToolWatch, it was difficult to make any direct connection between our actual costs and what we should be charging to recover them.
