Align Leads Rollout of DEWALT® TOOL CONNECT™ Systems Integration

DENVER, April 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ ― Align, a powerful, flexible platform for tool, equipment, materials, and consumables management, announces technology integration with DEWALT, a leading manufacturer of professional power tools, hand tools, storage, and accessories. As the pilot developer building the DEWALT TOOL CONNECT system, Align, and DEWALT are working together to improve the overall tool ownership experience. Many DEWALT customers already use the Align platform for their construction operations, making this collaboration a natural technology partnership.

“DEWALT was looking for a way to advance the state of construction operations,” said Don Kafka, Founder of Align.

“So, it made sense for our two companies to combine our respective areas of expertise and jointly tackle some challenging problems in field and warehouse operations through systems integration. For example, the DEWALT tool and software expertise mesh nicely with Align’s sophisticated cloud-based technology and product imaging database. This lets customers easily understand which tools should be added to their company’s inventory.”

A key benefit to this partnership is integrating the DEWALT catalog into the Align platform, eliminating the need for users to input product information and ensure the data's accuracy manually. In addition, users can scan the product’s QR code or barcode to automatically populate data into Align, allowing for a more streamlined and efficient upload process.

Already updated in the Align software, users can immediately benefit from this partnership.
