Rental and Management of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) is becoming more and more complex, with both recreational equipment and work at height equipment falling under increased scrutiny by governing agencies. With these increased demands, operators of climbing gyms and adventure parks, alpine club sections, mountain guides, mountaineering schools, sport stores, tourism associations and recreational programs are faced with an ever increasing need for a turn key solution to assist with the inspection, documentation, and maintenance of PPE products.
The EDELRID GEAR PILOT is designed to meet these increased demands. Divided into three unique and robust sections that include PPE inspection and maintenance, RENTALS administration, and a KNOW-HOW educational component that includes a comprehensive library of product knowledge and inspection documents, the EDELRID GEAR PILOT adds increased operational efficiencies and consolidates PPE programmatic needs into one concise and easy to use platform.
Administration, inspection and documentation of PPE products
The PPE section of the GEAR PILOT app is designed to support your on-site certified PPE inspector. The qualified personnel for PPE is guided step by step through the inspection instructions with easy-to-understand graphics and images. In doing so, he or she gets instructions for visual inspection, mechanical functional testing as well as instructions for small repairs.
Furthermore, in the PPE Inspector section you can perform PPE inspections, generate product data sheets and send them out to your costumer. All data is stored in a central online database and can be recalled by a PPE inspector in any place and at any time.
Since 2014, EDELRID has offered various trainings around the world that include trainings for inspection of PPE. EDELRID recommends that all operators of recreational programs and managers of work at height PPE caches, have a licensed PPE Inspector on staff. With the ever increasing need around PPE management, it is becoming more and more critical to insure employees responsible for administering PPE products and programs are experts in the crafts.
