Louth Fire & Rescue take stock and achieve ISO 45001
About our client
Louth Fire Service provides essential emergency response and public safety services across County Louth. Responsible for protecting lives, property, and communities, the service relies on the effective management of equipment, vehicles, and critical supplies to ensure operational readiness.
Challenges
Louth Fire Service faced several operational challenges related to the management of assets and resources. Maintaining accurate stock levels of critical supplies such as PPE and consumables proved time-consuming. Managing audit and compliance documentation in line with ISO 45001 required a structured and accessible approach.
Enter FlexManager...
Louth Fire Service implemented FlexManager as a centralised digital solution for asset and stock management. FlexManager enabled the service to schedule and record inspections, track equipment status in real time, and manage stock levels across stations from a single platform. The system provided greater visibility, consistency, and control, supporting both frontline crews and management teams.
