Product Update – October 2025
We’ve recently rolled out a series of powerful enhancements to help teams gain deeper insight into tool usage, reliability, and availability; all designed to support better decision-making and operational continuity.
New Audit History at Location
A new Audit History dialog has been added to the view location screen that allows the user to view the audit history for the location. This is particularly useful if users want to understand how long a tool has been missing from a given location or understand any trends in its use or availability. If a tool is regularly missing from a specific location, it could indicate that either the area is not following prescribed tool procedures about returning tools after use, or that it is in high demand for which a spare or second tool may want to be considered to enable business continuity.
Enhanced Item Audit History
The audit history at the item level has been changed to show both the history for the item, and for the item position (for visual locations). This additional visibility enables users to understand more about patterns of use and whether tooling is sufficient to meet project demand.
Revised Loan History
The Loan History dialog has been overhauled to better reflect the history of the item. It now shows when the item was added to different loans and when it was returned, rather than focussing on the overall status of the loan. This provides a more granular visibility about item movements and helps with future planning for tool procurement and project loading.
New Item Condition History
A new Item Condition History dialog has been added to the view item page. This allows a history of all the issues reported on an item to be viewed (and when the issues were cleared). This gives visibility of the resilience and reliability of individual tools and inform future decisions over vendor, brand and tool selection.
Inventory Location editing flexibility
Users can now change or remove serial numbers from inventory locations should inlays be switched out or no longer be required. Nominated owners of locations can also now be changed and unassigned. This flexibility enables the system to reflect changes of use, people, roles and responsibilities within organisations and allow greater mobility of toolsets across locations.
Loan Item safeguards and workflow enhancements
Changes to loans to prevent accidental deletions and streamline item transitions from one loan to another without having to close the original loan.
We’ve also added some handy improvements like new calibration units and smoother admin navigation, plus a bunch of small behind-the-scenes updates to keep things running fast, stable, and secure.
We’re always evolving KIT to make managing tools and equipment smarter, simpler, and more insightful.
