Campus surplus, redeployed on purpose.
Desks, chairs, monitors, and lab equipment with years of life left shouldn't sit in a warehouse nobody searches. ReDorm gives surplus a catalog, a claim process, and a paper trail.
The Challenge
Surplus disappears into storage
Departments surplus furniture and equipment into a warehouse with no shared catalog, so nobody outside property control knows what's available. Meanwhile another department is issuing a purchase order for the exact same desk. Assets get scrapped early, storage fills up, and when an auditor asks where a tagged asset went, the answer lives in somebody's email.
How ReDorm helps
One central catalog
Every surplus asset in a single searchable inventory with photos, condition, and location — visible to the departments that could reuse it.
Internal transfer requests
Departments claim what they need before anything is sold or scrapped, turning surplus into avoided procurement spend.
Asset tagging and audit trail
Each asset carries a record from intake through final disposition, so property control can answer where anything went and when.
Role-based access
Separate permissions for property control, warehouse staff, and department admins so approvals follow your actual chain of custody.
Public sale when you're ready
Once the internal claim window closes, release remaining items to a campus storefront instead of paying to haul them away.
Avoided-cost reporting
Quantify the replacement value of everything redeployed internally — the number that justifies the program to finance.
What it looks like in practice
A typical run through the platform, start to finish.
- 1
Intake and tag the asset
Warehouse staff log the item with photos, condition, and its existing asset tag as it arrives from the department.
- 2
Open the internal claim window
The asset publishes to the internal catalog where other departments can request a transfer for a set period.
- 3
Approve transfers or release to sale
Property control approves internal claims. Anything unclaimed rolls automatically to the public storefront.
- 4
Close out with a disposition record
Transfer, sale, or recycling is written to the asset's permanent history, ready for audit without assembling it by hand.
