Anyone who waits for the torque wrench three times a day needs a second one. Tulz works that out: utilisation shows per tool how much of the time it was on loan; bottlenecks list the tools where waiting time arises, with watch requests, declined requests and an order proposal.
Add costs and assets, shrinkage, inspection status and the overview every employee puts together for themselves – with the tiles that count for their work.
How it works in the workshop
- Overview – after sign-in: due inspections, overdue loans, open damage, bottlenecks; select tiles (Overview).
- Reports – choose period and site; utilisation, bottlenecks, costs, shrinkage, inspections (Reports).
- Bottlenecks – from about 60 % utilisation or several watch requests Tulz proposes a second tool and creates the order (Bottlenecks).
- Print or PDF – every report for the meeting or the boss.
What comes with it
- Timeline per tool: check-outs, returns, inspections, damage, relocations on one line (Timeline)
- "My day" for mechanics: what I have, what I need to return, what is reserved (My day)
- Usage history per employee, log of all changes
- Excel and CSV export for your own analyses
- Cost calculator on the website: What does searching cost?
Who it is for
Workshop management, stores and owners who want to make decisions about tools with numbers instead of gut feeling.
Frequently asked questions
How does Tulz recognise a bottleneck?
From utilisation in the period, watch requests ("tell me when it's free") and declined requests from other sites or the network.
Can every employee see the reports?
No – reports and costs are bound to roles. Mechanics see "My day" and their own transactions.
Can the figures be exported?
Yes, as Excel or CSV; the print view produces a PDF.
