Allow students to access a loaner device 24/7 in a fully automated, trackable way. ForwardPass tracks every device, so high-value assets stay accounted for without extra admin — improving university laptops management at scale.
For labs and courses that rely on specific software, ForwardPass manages short-term access to preconfigured devices — ready when students need them, secure when they don’t. This supports consistent asset availability across departments, not just IT.
Modern campuses run 24/7 — and so do their students. ForwardPass provides higher education charging lockers across campus, giving students a safe place to store and power devices between classes or overnight.
ForwardPass connects with your campus systems, from student ID authentication to asset tracking, so adoption is smooth for both students and IT. Your campus smart lockers become part of a unified workflow — not another tool to manage.
Every device handoff is logged in the online Portal and tied to student ID. Staff always know who has which device, and programs stay sustainable semester after semester — even when inventory moves between locations.
Automated workflows for loans, returns, and charging save library and IT staff hours every week — freeing them to focus on supporting teaching and research. It’s a better experience for staff and for students using lockers to keep learning moving.
