In the time of continued cost savings and efficiency building, our laboratory built a sophisticated system for sharing large amounts of shared equipment across a widely spread fleet. After years of successfully implementing this program and software, we have begun to pull other logistical controlled systems and testing into the process. Our company now deploys Drones used for testing and analysis throughout our sites through this shared governance program. Not only does this system coordinate the shipment of the units themselves (whether it is Measuring and Test Equipment or Drones), it helps coordinate the pilots and engineers analyzing the data when using the Drones. Now that our system has proven to be effective for situations other than test equipment, we are leveraging it to manage many more items throughout our fleet and beyond. This paper will discuss the details of the shared inventory concept and how it was leveraged for the work beyond metrology.
