Uniform and PPE issue tracking for fire departments

Firefighter Logistics keeps track of the uniforms and PPE your department issues - each member's sizes, what they asked for, what they were given and what it cost - so the logistics officer is not rebuilding it from memory and receipts.

In development. Uniform and PPE tracking is still being built with the departments using it. It is included at no charge while it is in development, and what those departments tell us shapes it.

Sizes on file

Members keep their own sizes current, so an order goes out in the right size the first time. A size that needs special handling is noted once and stays with the member.

Requests from members

A member asks for what they need from their phone. Logistics sees every request in one list and can issue several items as one handover, or the same items to a whole shift or the whole department at once.

What each member has

Every issue is recorded against the member: what, when, what size and what it cost. Members confirm they received it. Where the department gives a yearly allowance, each member's spending against it is right there, along with what they have been issued over their career.

Turnout gear

For PPE, the department keeps a record of each piece of turnout gear, who it is assigned to and how old it is, so the questions at an inspection or a retirement date have answers.
