PML Services LLC Partners with Black+Decker to Revolutionize Tool Management for Contractors
Atlanta, GA – October 26, 2023 – PML Services LLC, a leading provider of comprehensive tool management solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Black+Decker, a global leader in power tools, outdoor products, and hardware. This collaboration aims to address a critical pain point for contractors and tradespeople: efficiently managing, tracking, and maintaining valuable tool investments. For years, contractors have struggled with the hassles of lost tools, downtime due to repairs, and the administrative burden of inventory control. PML Services LLC is stepping up to solve these problems with a powerful new system built around Black+Decker tools. “We’ve talked to tons of contractors, and the same issues keep coming up,” says a spokesperson for PML Services LLC, located at 3 Ravinia Dr Ste 100, Atlanta, GA, 30346-2121. “They’re losing money on lost or stolen tools. They’re spending way too much time on tool maintenance. And keeping track of everything? Forget about it! We built our solution specifically to fix these headaches.” So, What's PML Services LLC Bringing to the Table? PML Services LLC isn’t just offering software; it’s offering a complete, end-to-end tool management ecosystem. Here’s a breakdown of what they do: Tool Tracking & Inventory: Using a combination of durable RFID tags or Bluetooth beacons (depending on the contractor’s needs), PML Services LLC’s system lets you pinpoint the location of every Black+Decker tool on your jobsite, in your warehouse, or even in transit. No more searching through piles of equipment! The system integrates with a user-friendly mobile app and web dashboard. Automated Check-In/Check-Out: Employees can easily check tools in and out using the mobile app. This eliminates paperwork and provides a clear audit trail of who has what, and when. Think of it like a library for your power tools. Maintenance Scheduling & Tracking: This is a big one. The system automatically schedules preventative maintenance for each Black+Decker tool based on usage. It sends reminders, tracks repairs, and helps extend the lifespan of your investments. No more unexpected breakdowns in the middle of a critical job. Loss Prevention & Security: If a tool leaves a designated jobsite without authorization, the system triggers an alert. This significantly reduces the risk of theft and loss. It's like having a virtual fence around your equipment. Data & Reporting: PML Services LLC’s platform generates detailed reports on tool usage, maintenance costs, and overall inventory value. This data helps contractors make informed decisions about their tool investments and optimize their operations. Think of it as having a financial dashboard for your tools. Why Black+Decker? A Natural Fit. “We chose to partner with Black+Decker because they’re known for building tough, reliable tools that contractors depend on,” explains the PML Services LLC spokesperson. “Their commitment to quality aligns perfectly with our mission to help contractors protect and maximize their investments.” Black+Decker's extensive range of power tools, from drills and saws to grinders and impact drivers, makes them a perfect partner for PML Services LLC’s comprehensive tool management system. The integration allows for seamless tracking and management of a wide variety of tools, covering almost every need on a typical jobsite. How Does it Work in Practice? Imagine a plumbing contractor with a team of 10 technicians. Before PML Services LLC, tracking tools was a nightmare. Tools went missing, maintenance was neglected, and paperwork was overwhelming. Now, with the PML Services LLC system powered by Black+Decker tools: 1. Each Black+Decker tool is tagged with a unique identifier. 2. Technicians check tools out using the mobile app at the start of each job. The app records who has what and when. 3. The system automatically schedules maintenance. For example, it might remind the shop foreman to lubricate a drill after 50 hours of use. 4. If a tool is taken outside the designated jobsite perimeter (using geofencing), an alert is sent. 5. At the end of the job, tools are checked back in, updating the inventory and usage data. The result? Reduced tool loss, minimized downtime, optimized maintenance, and a significant boost in efficiency. Benefits for Contractors: Reduced Costs: Less money lost on lost or stolen tools, lower maintenance expenses, and improved tool lifespan. Increased Productivity: Less time wasted searching for tools or dealing with breakdowns. Improved Accountability: Clear tracking of tool usage and responsibility. Better Decision-Making: Data-driven insights into tool investments and operations. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your valuable tools are secure, well-maintained, and readily available when you need them. Beyond Black+Decker: A Scalable Solution While the partnership with Black+Decker is a key component, PML Services LLC’s system is designed to be scalable and compatible with tools from other manufacturers. This allows contractors to manage their entire tool inventory, regardless of brand. Getting Started: PML Services LLC is now accepting orders for its tool management system.
