Business
Jobsite Tool Accountability Kit
Offer a turnkey package to small crews: install chips in their chip‑ready DEWALT tools and storage, configure TOOL CONNECT Site Manager with names/assignments, train the foreman on nightly Bluetooth sweeps and using the blue ID light, and deliver monthly variance reports. Charge a setup fee plus a recurring service.
Rental House Loss‑Prevention Add‑On
Partner with local rental shops that stock DEWALT chip‑ready gear. Tag high‑loss kits, set them up in Site Manager, and provide a check‑in/check‑out workflow with quick sweeps and ID‑light verification. Supply ‘last seen’ summaries to reduce disputes and chargebacks. Bill per tagged kit and per-month monitoring.
Closeout Sweep Service for GCs
On punch‑list or demob days, deploy a team with phones/tablets to run a structured Bluetooth sweep of chip‑ready tools and boxes across the site. Deliver a report of items still on premises vs. assigned crews, with ‘last seen’ timestamps to speed recovery. Price per sweep or per project phase.
AV and Event Crew Case Control
For crews using DEWALT chip‑ready storage for cable/tool trunks, implement Site Manager with pack‑in/pack‑out checklists. Place a low‑cost tablet at the stage door for quick sweeps and trigger blue lights to grab the correct case in dim venues. Offer setup, training, and weekly audit reporting as a subscription.
Trade Co‑op Shared Inventory Setup
Stand up a shared pool of chip‑ready tools and storage for small subcontractors. Configure groups and assignments in Site Manager, add signage for ID‑light pickups, and create simple SOPs for daily sweeps. Monetize with onboarding packages and tiered access fees for members.
Creative
Smart Shadow Board 2.0
Build a wall-mounted shadow board featuring only chip‑ready DEWALT tools. Name each asset in Site Manager to match its outline on the board. At cleanup, trigger each tool’s blue ID light to quickly spot what’s missing and run a fast Bluetooth sweep to confirm everything is back in place.
Apprentice Scavenger Hunt
Turn tool-familiarization into a game. Hide several chip‑ready tools or storage boxes around the shop and have trainees use the Site Manager app to find them by proximity and the blue identification light. Time each run to create a fun, repeatable training exercise that also teaches proper kit names and locations.
Maker-Space Kit Checkout Wall
Assemble labeled project kits (plumbing, electrical, drywall) using chip‑ready storage. Mount photos of each kit on a checkout wall with a QR linking to its asset in Site Manager. Members reserve a kit, scan the QR to view it, and use the blue ID light to grab the exact box from shelves. A quick end-of-day sweep verifies returns.
Mobile Van Find‑Me Grid
Equip a work van’s chip‑ready storage with TOOL CONNECT Chips and create a laminated map of drawers/bins that mirrors Site Manager names. When you need a specific set, trigger the blue light to pinpoint the right case fast, and run a Bluetooth sweep before driving off to ensure nothing was left on the job.
Camp and Overland Gear Checklist
Use chip‑ready storage for critical camp gear (repair kits, cook set, power station). Before departing, open Site Manager and do a quick sweep to confirm all totes are within range. Make it a family challenge—whoever verifies the whole checklist first picks the campsite treat.
