Case Study: Potomac Electric Power Company improves asset tracking and inventory control with ToolHound

Potomac Electric Power Company - Customer Case Study

Potomac Electric Power Company (Pepco) faced significant challenges in tracking valuable tools, equipment, and hardware across its large workforce using an inefficient paper-based system. This led to lost assets, a lack of maintenance control, and redundant purchasing. To solve this, they implemented the ToolHound Desktop system from vendor ToolHound.

ToolHound’s solution involved tagging assets with barcodes and using handheld RF scanners for real-time tracking. The results were transformative: asset losses were drastically reduced, purchasing became more efficient, and maintenance was automated. Pepco also creatively repurposed the system to track computer hardware. Vendor ToolHound provided the powerful functionality that made inventory management efficient and automated.
