Deduplicate spares
Hold one shared set of switches, PSUs, and optics with us. Engineers pull what's needed for whichever site went down.
Smart Hands Warehouse holds your emergency supplies so they're already in Manchester when a Work Order needs them. Your engineer pulls the stock on the way to site.
Five Manchester sites with similar setups? Hold one shared set of emergency kit with us instead of stashing duplicates at every site. Same coverage, one-fifth the inventory on the books.

Items are signed in with condition notes, held securely, tracked end-to-end. We take responsibility for kit while it's with us.
The Smart Hands engineer on your Visit picks the reserved items up on the way. No couriers, no DPD windows, no missed deliveries.
Every check-in, reservation, check-out and return is timestamped in the Smart Hands Portal and iOS app. No reconciliation spreadsheet.
Kit lives with us. Reservations live in the Portal. Engineers move the atoms.
Drop off or ship in. We check it in with photos, dimensions and condition notes against your Warehouse.
Raise a Work Order in the Portal and reserve the items you'll need. Stock stays with us until the Visit.
On Visit day, your engineer checks the reserved items out of your Warehouse and brings them to site. Returned excess goes back into stock.
Two lines on your monthly invoice: a daily standing charge and storage usage by m³·day. Zero stock days are free.
Every check-in, reservation, check-out and return — timestamped and visible in the Smart Hands Portal and iOS app. No spreadsheet. No "did we ever get that switch back?".

One 42U rack (1.20 m³), four switches in boxes (0.12 m³ total), and a spool of Cat6a (0.04 m³) sat with us for the whole of April: 1.36 m³ × 30 days × £1 + 30 standing days × £1 = £70.80 / month.
See calculationsBy bounding-box volume in cubic metres. We measure W × D × H of each item at check-in (or its packaging if it stays boxed), log it in your Warehouse, and bill on the m³·day total each day stock is with us.
Yes. Raise a Work Order or ask your account manager. We'll either bring it to a site on the next Visit, courier it, or have it ready for collection — whichever suits. No minimum term, no exit fee.
Items are signed in with condition notes and photos, held in our facility, and tracked end-to-end. We take responsibility for looking after kit while it's in our custody, backed by our public liability cover. Indicative value is logged at check-in for reconciliation.
