    Keep Your Job Stock in Check With Align

In construction, having the right tools and equipment on-site at the right time is crucial for project efficiency. But managing inventory across large, dynamic job sites can be a logistical challenge, especially when you’re trying to balance avoiding costly shortages and minimizing unused assets.

Align’s Job Stock feature solves that problem, providing real-time visibility into the quantity of assets on-site and ensuring you always have what you need to keep projects moving forward smoothly.

 

Why Job Stock is a game -changer

With the Job Stock feature, construction supervisors, warehouse managers, and company execs  get a real-time view of the tools and equipment on hand at any project location. Whether it’s a simple tool like a hammer or heavy-duty machinery, Job Stock shows the exact quantities of every asset onsite. No more guessing how many saws or drills are available; you can instantly see what’s there and how many.

Plan ahead with target quantities

But Align doesn’t stop at just tracking what’s onsite. Job Stock lets you set low, target, and high quantity levels for each asset.

This helps you know  when you’re running short, when you’re stocked perfectly, and when you have too much onsite. With just a glance, you'll know when it's time to request more and avoid costly delays. Plus, you can easily create requests for equipment as soon as you notice the quantity is dipping below the set target.

By planning ahead and maintaining optimal equipment levels, you’re keeping your projects moving efficiently and eliminating unnecessary downtime.

Pre-plan for future project needs

One of the most unique aspects of Job Stock is the ability to add equipment models to a job site's stock list even before the tools are officially requested. This means you can pre-plan your equipment needs before the project begins, saving you time and ensuring no crucial equipment gets forgotten. It’s like making a shopping list for the entire project, ensuring you’re prepared for every phase.
