Case Study: The University of Texas at Arlington speeds up student equipment checkout with Cheqroom

The University of Texas at Arlington cuts student checkout lines with CHEQROOM

The University of Texas at Arlington's technical operations team was struggling to manage equipment for students across 10 different classes using a cumbersome Microsoft Access database they described as a "glorified Excel sheet." This manual process was slow and created long logistical bottlenecks, with lines of students waiting to check out gear.

By implementing Cheqroom's equipment checkout software, the university moved to a simple, scannable system using barcode and QR code scanners. This made the check-out and check-in process so much faster, saving the team a lot of time. The most significant result was the elimination of long student lines, greatly improving the student experience. The team also gained the ability to efficiently manage their full inventory, track purchase prices, separate items for repair, and segment gear by classroom.
