COVID 19 Reuse guidance- template

When you solve a problem that everyone can relate to....

When you create a simple tool to fix that problem...

When you create a solution that helps the environment, improves sustainability, and allows departments to work together in an organisation,  to make the organisation healthier and happier, you create a vehicle which helps to garner support for even more sustainability initiatives!

In this post, we will be looking at a feature we have added to the Warp It system that makes life easier for building clearance managers, and allows reuse to be maximised during clearances and decommissions.

Members of your organisations come and go, this is simply the nature of work, and it often goes hand in hand with Warp It and reuse when it comes to rehoming assets that are no longer wanted or needed.

When an item expires without being claimed, where does it go?

Well, typically, it will move into one of two places, the ‘expired’ list, or the ‘disposed’ list, and this is dependent on your settings.

For some of our users, an expiration has come about too soon, as the item is still in stock and they are still actively looking for a new home for it. In these instances, you can re-list the item, here’s how:

Hey, Warp It Members.

We’ve been receiving a few emails from users in recent weeks about how to filter search results by member, from a standard user account.

An oldie but a goodie...

This one is for you. Over the last few years, we’ve worked hard to increase the levels of control and customisability that you have over your organisation’s Warp It portal.

In this article, we are going to explain a feature that has been there since the start that many may have forgotten about. We are going to explain how to control what your users can see when they are in the marketplace.

We get asked regularly by our members why we collect data on so many different metrics, what we do with that data, and how they should then use that data to their advantage?

In this guide, we will look at these questions and try to help you see the bigger picture of reuse data, and how it is more valuable than simply knowing how many items have been traded and to whom.

Every so often we get requests from customers along the lines of....

These items are definitely not required internally- we want to send them straight to charity.

Now you can send items straight to charity!

Within the admin settings panel, you will find ‘Control Partners’, a section that will enable admins to allow items to be immediately assigned to third parties.

Log in as admin> settings> control partners......

Warp It Admins have expressed an interest in having more control of user behaviour.

In this case we had a request from Sussex Community NHS Trust to get agreements from members when they were adding or claiming certain categories because these categories were associated with specific risks. 

We have had similar requests in the past so we looked into it further.

There maybe certain risks around electricals, ward equipment and even some types of furniture and members need to know about these risks or agree to statements around these risks.
