Tool Management

President's Message

2011 – Wow, who would have thought….

Now is the time of year when most people are focused on keeping their resolutions. Gym memberships skyrocket (although who needs the gym with all this snow), restaurants empty and yoga teachers get hundreds of inquiries as people resolve to better themselves.

At ToolHound we are no different. 2010 was an exciting year for the ToolHound team. We have welcomed many new clients to our ever-growing family, including installations with Speedy Hire in Dubai, Propak, Edmonton Exchanger, Thermal Energy, BP and a global agreement with Shell. As well we are developing a unique, automated tool crib project in the mining industry. In 2010, we also announced the launch of our new Self-Service Kiosk with optional RFID reader and ToolHound On-Site Express.

As per our mandate when we established the new ToolHound in 2008, we are proud supporters of Habitat for Humanity in Canada and the United States. We provided numerous free ToolHound licenses to H4H branches throughout North America in 2010 and hope to do the same in 2011.

2011 promises to be an even bigger year for the ToolHound family. Our New Year resolution is to continue to lead the industry with innovative Tool and Equipment Management Solutions.

How are we going to do that? Good question.

·          We are actively participating in industry associations in order to develop a better understanding of our customers’ experiences.

·     We are hosting a user conference to provide affordable training opportunities. This year’s event should be an especially exciting one with the planned launch of ToolHound 5.

·          We are participating in the RFID Journal Live! where I will have the opportunity to speak about RFID technology in the construction industry.

·          We will continue to develop our products and solutions in order to meet your specific requirements.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg! So stay tuned for more from ToolHound in 2011 and, as always, I invite you and your team to provide feedback regarding our newsletter and our user conference. If you have any tips or tricks you would like to share with the user community, send them in and we will include them in future eUpdates.

All the best in 2011,

Dean Perry
