Introduction
The FDOT Safety Inventory is a management tool for the storage of safety materials from the FDOT D6. This tool facilitates material retrieval as well as material requests.
The Catalog, how to search, filter
The catalog can be accessed at this URL: https://fdotsafetyinventory.com. The Catalog displays a collection of materials organized by campaign, material type, and language. The material record displays its name, campaign, quantity, type, and language. Materials can be retrieved by searching or filtering the results. An image of the material is displayed for better reference.
How to edit a material
Users must log in with the Manager role in order to edit the material, as well as to access all of the management options that are visible once logged into the system.
The login access is located by scrolling down at the bottom of the site.
Once logged into the site, the material records will show more information (material’s location) and an icon to edit the material. The management menu is also displayed upon login.
