    Workplace PPE Inventory Management

    Use the ServiceNow® Workplace Personal Protective Equipment Inventory Management application to manage PPE inventory to help safeguard the physical safety  of your workforce. Monitor the availability of PPE at different locations, fulfill employee requests for PPE, and track PPE assigned to employees.

    PPE setup and use

    PPE supplies can easily be ordered from the self-service portal via mobile or desktop.  A dashboard provides  a comprehensive view  of inventory  by facility, an  aggregate look at the  entire workplace, and  historical data on how  equipment  levels have changed over time.  Inventory levels can be updated  daily for accurate, real-time inventory management.

    Use guided setup to implement Safe Workplace suite apps
    The Safe Workplace guided setup provides a sequence of tasks that help you configure the Safe Workplace and Emergency Response Management applications on your ServiceNow instance. To open the Safe Workplace guided setup, navigate to Guided Setup > Safe Workplace Guided Setup. For more information about using the guided setup interface, see Using guided setup.

    Use with other Safe Workplace suite applications

    Workplace PPE Inventory Management is part of a suite of ServiceNow® Safe Workplace suite applications. Use it with these other applications to help your organization prepare its workforce and workplaces to resume operations after emergencies and pandemics like COVID-19.
    • With the Employee Readiness Surveys application, evaluate the readiness of your employees to return to the workplace by asking them to fill in a survey.
    • Before employees re-enter workspaces, use the Employee Health Screening application to screen employees and ensure compliance with your entry requirements, such as a temperature check and PPE.
    • With the Workplace Safety Management application, prepare for the return of employees by configuring and maintaining clean and socially distanced workspaces for them to use.

    All Safe Workplace suite applications are available in the ServiceNow Store.

    Safe Workplace suite for federal customers

    Federal customers using IL4 or FedRAMP environments will see the Safe Workplace suite applications ready and available to install on their nonproduction instances without having to make any special requests. Licenses are required to use Safe Workplace suite applications on production instances. Customers are responsible for configuring the apps to meet U.S. federal regulations and guidelines.
    Note: Now® Mobile capabilities are not currently supported in FedRamp Mod/IL2 and FedRamp/IL4 (GCC) environments. Customers running Safe Workplace applications in those environments will need to leverage web interfaces and configure email notifications instead of Now Mobile push notifications.
