Streamlined Asset Management for Schools: Enhance Efficiency, Cut Costs, and Simplify Contracts

School districts face numerous challenges, including the need to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and manage contracts effectively. Follett Software offers solutions that address these common problems head-on. Our asset management tools can streamline operations, provide valuable data insights, and help districts make informed decisions about resource allocation. 

Reducing Costs with Effective Asset Management

Asset management tools are crucial for tracking and managing district resources beyond what traditional library management software supports. Non-library assets include technology resources, textbooks, curriculum materials, and special education resources. By centralizing asset management, districts can cut costs by maintaining better control over their resources.

The Power of Data and Reporting

Asset management solutions provide detailed data and reporting features, allowing districts to maintain accountability and security for all assets. Our system generates comprehensive reports on usage, condition, and other key metrics, enabling administrators to make data-driven decisions. Whether it’s identifying which textbooks are most in demand or tracking technology maintenance schedules, Follett’s tools offer invaluable insights.

Efficiency Through Technology

Our asset management software helps districts manage all resources efficiently in one centralized system. This eliminates the need for cumbersome spreadsheets, allowing for easy assignment of resources to individuals or departments, setting alerts for low inventory levels, and tracking overdue items. The result is a streamlined process that ensures resources are available when needed.

Full-Service Support for Device Initiatives

For districts implementing 1:1 device programs, Follett’s solutions integrate seamlessly with mobile device management (MDM) systems. This integration speeds up device deployment, facilitates physical inventories, and ensures consistent tracking of device statuses. Additionally, features like digital signature agreements streamline the distribution and collection of resources.

Boosting Efficiency Across the Board

Our software includes advanced inventory functionality, sophisticated search features, and comprehensive data recording. This ensures that all historical data about an asset is maintained, from maintenance schedules to disposal history. By integrating with class schedules and enrollment data, Follett’s asset management tools prevent overordering and help districts stay within budget.

Accountability and Security

Follett’s asset management solutions include detailed permission settings to ensure only authorized personnel can access inventory data. Digital signature agreements enhance accountability, making it easy for parents and guardians to submit necessary forms electronically, ensuring an organized and secure process.

Single-Vendor Solutions for Streamlined Operations

Using a suite of products from a single vendor like Follett simplifies district operations. It eliminates issues related to vendor communication and system integration, providing a cohesive platform for managing all district resources. This unified approach reduces the burden on staff, allowing them to focus more on improving student outcomes.
