Gear & Equipment Tracking

Know Exactly What Gear You Have (And Who Has It)

You manage $50K in tactical equipment. Right now, you don't know what you own, who has it, or when it expires. UnitGear fixes that.

You Don't Know What You Have

Every tactical unit faces the same situation. Here's what it looks like before UnitGear:

  • You claim 20 body armor vests. You actually have 14. Four are damaged, two are missing, and three of the ones being deployed are expired.
  • You don't know who has what. "Officer Johnson has the radio" lives in someone's head, not a system.
  • Expired gear gets deployed. Nobody tracks expiration dates. An officer gets hurt. Investigators ask when the vest was last inspected. You can't answer.
  • Deployments take 90 minutes. You hand out gear by hand. Someone forgets something. You're scrambling at game time.
  • Auditors ask for records. You have a spreadsheet from 2022 with no continuity, no accountability, no chain of custody.

Estimated lawsuit exposure from a single expired-gear incident

When an officer gets hurt wearing protection you knew was expired — and your records show you knew — that's not an accident. That's a liability.

How It Works in Practice

Here's the game-day scenario. 30 officers need gear in 15 minutes.

Before UnitGear

  1. Hand out vests, radios, batons by hand
  2. Someone writes names on a clipboard (maybe)
  3. 90 minutes later, a helmet is still missing
  4. Someone grabs a vest that was already checked out
  5. You're scrambling at game time
  6. Zero paper trail. Zero accountability.

With UnitGear

  1. Select deployment. Select 30 officers. Click "Issue Standard Kit."
  2. System assigns gear from available inventory in under 2 minutes
  3. Each officer scans their barcode at pickup. System confirms receipt.
  4. Dashboard shows: who has what, what's still in cage, what's expired
  5. End of deployment: scan items back in. System confirms returns.
  6. Full audit trail: who had what gear, when, for how long.

Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.

Scan-Based Checkout

Open the app. Scan the item barcode. Assign to an officer. Works offline — syncs when WiFi returns. One-handed operation, field-ready.

Real-Time Inventory

Dashboard shows exactly what you have: available, assigned, in repair, retired. No guessing. No clipboard. Updated the moment a scan happens.

Expiration Alerts

90 days before expiration: yellow alert. 60 days: orange. 30 days: red. Past expiration: the item cannot be checked out. The system stops you before deployment happens.

Officer Accountability

Every officer's profile shows exactly what they have. "Johnson has these 5 items, checked out March 4th." No surprises. No "wait, who has the radio?"

Immutable Audit Trail

Every action is logged: who, what, when, why. When investigators ask questions, you have answers. When auditors ask for compliance records, one click generates the report.

Mobile-First Design

Designed for one-handed field use, not a desktop. Full functionality on a phone. Works in the cage, in the field, in low-signal environments.

What This Is Actually Worth

Real numbers. Not vague claims about "increased efficiency."
