Operational sequence

Identify → Prepare → Store → Track → Retrieve

01

Identify

Group equipment by function, venue area, project or operational use.

02

Prepare

Check condition, packaging needs, identification and storage suitability.

03

Store

Use a location system suited to equipment type and access frequency.

04

Track

Maintain useful records of location, status and movement.

05

Retrieve

Plan access so commonly needed equipment can be found without unnecessary handling.

Before equipment goes into storage

Record the facts that affect space, handling and access.

Good planning begins with a consistent description of what is being stored and how it will be used. The same information supports layout, identification and return-to-use preparation.
