VaultIQ
Secure Tool Management System
Know exactly where every tool is, who has it, and when it moved. VaultIQ combines a hardened enclosure with BLE scanning, biometric access control, tamper detection, and real-time connectivity — giving supervisors full chain-of-custody without slowing anyone down. Available as fixed cabinets, mobile job boxes, smart cages, trailer compartments, and vehicle-mounted smart drawers.
What VaultIQ Does
BLE Tool Scanning
Continuous Bluetooth Low Energy scanning detects every tagged tool inside the vault in real time. Know exactly what is present and what is missing — no manual counts.
Access Control
Badge, PIN, or biometric authentication before the vault opens. Role-based permissions ensure only authorized personnel access specific tool sets.
Full Audit Trail
Every vault open, every tool removed, every tool returned — timestamped and tied to a specific person. Exportable audit logs for compliance and incident investigation.
Tamper Detection & Alerts
Accelerometer, magnetic sensors, vibration/impact, movement, tilt, and geofence breach detection. Instant alerts to supervisors and security.
Remote Management
OTA firmware updates, remote config changes, health monitoring, battery status, and connectivity diagnostics — all from the ArgusIQ™ dashboard.
Environmental Sensing
Optional temperature/humidity, smoke, water leak, and light sensors. Know not just who accessed the vault, but what conditions the contents are stored in.
From Install to Insight
Load Tools with BLE Tags
Attach small BLE tags to each tool. Tags are rugged, waterproof, and last 3+ years. Register each tool in the system with photo, serial number, and calibration data.
Secure in VaultIQ
Place tagged tools in the VaultIQ enclosure. The system automatically scans and registers the full inventory within seconds of closing.
Badge In to Access
Authorized personnel authenticate via badge, PIN, or biometric. The vault unlocks, and the system begins tracking which tools are removed.
Every Action Logged
Open, close, checkout, return, tamper attempt — every event is timestamped, attributed, and synced to ArgusIQ™ for reporting and compliance.

Real-World Deployments
Defense Depot Tool Accountability
A military maintenance depot uses VaultIQ to enforce 100% tool accountability on the flight line. Every wrench, every socket, every FOD-risk item is tracked from checkout to return — eliminating manual shadow board counts.
Manufacturing Shift Handoff
A precision machining shop uses VaultIQ at shift change to verify complete tool return. The outgoing shift cannot clock out until VaultIQ confirms 100% inventory. Missing tool? The system tells you who had it last.
Construction Site Loss Prevention
A general contractor deploys VaultIQ units across a multi-building construction site. Tool theft drops to near zero. Insurance costs decrease. And when OSHA asks who last inspected a fall protection harness, the answer is one click away.
