Case Study: Mobile County Public Schools achieves streamlined inventory management and better consumables tracking with Brightly Software (SchoolDude InventoryDirect)

District Improves Inventory Process with On-Site Services

Mobile County Public Schools (97 facilities, ~60,000 students) faced inefficient inventory and consumables tracking because one of its two warehouses was unorganized, making it hard for the facilities team to implement a manageable ordering and stock process.

SchoolDude provided on-site services within two weeks, spending five days organizing the warehouse, creating labels, importing data into InventoryDirect, and training staff on processes, scanning, and tying supplies to work orders. As a result, both warehouses are now usable and trackable, the district can identify over- and under-ordering, run reports and KPIs for better planning, and expects cost and mileage savings from future warehouse consolidation and surplus management.
