Project-based equipment requisitions, connected to real inventory.
A unified system for students, technicians, and supervisors to manage projects, requests, approvals, assignments, and returns.
Your lab management platform. Search anything.
From scattered workflows to structured lab operations
We replaced manual files and untraceable approvals with a robust digital custody system.
The old scattered way
- Wiki-based process:
Decentralized project documentation with layout inconsistency.
- Markdown project creation:
Manually editing markdown files which are prone to format errors.
- Hard-to-track equipment:
Spreadsheet logs that quickly fall out of sync with actual hardware.
- Cumbersome requisitions:
Inconvenient request trails with unclear approval authority.
The Unified Control System
- Structured project forms:
Direct inputs validate user data and initialize proper database structures.
- Project-based requisitions:
Tie equipment directly to project timelines, groups, and academic courses.
- Snipe-IT inventory authority:
Real-time sync to the Snipe-IT API keeps availability accurate.
- Status history & Traceability:
Full database history records every single check-out, handoff, and return.
A complete requisition lifecycle
A transparent and automated path designed to save administrative time and trace assets.
Project created
Form teams, add supervisors, and state objectives.
Equipment requested
Select necessary components synced directly with Snipe-IT.
Technician approves
Administrators validate availability and approve request logs.
Item assigned
Assets checked out to student and linked to the active project.
Returned
Physical item handed back; inventory state automatically updates.
History saved
Complete lifecycle state archived in the PostgreSQL database.
Everything the lab workflow needs
Our platform handles all components of project tracking and physical resource distribution.
Projects & Groups
Organize student groups, link supervisors, and maintain clear records of development scope.
Equipment requisitions
Search, filter, and request sensors, boards, and tools with a simple cart checkout interface.
Inventory Sync
Synchronized with the Snipe-IT ITAM system, guaranteeing correct serial number assignments.
Authentication & Roles
Integrated with University SSO to auto-authenticate users as Students, Technicians, or Admins.
Traceability
Every state transition is audited and logged, preventing lost lab components.
Mobile Access
Dedicated companion apps for iOS and Android support remote inventory querying on the go.
App demonstration
