ToolHound Inc. traces its roots back to the early 1980s when it was originally founded as Software Integration Services. Initially focused on providing custom software solutions, the company quickly identified a growing demand for specialized tool and equipment tracking systems, particularly in industries like construction, maintenance, and power generation. With this insight, Software Integration Services began to shift its focus, becoming one of the first companies to provide comprehensive tool management solutions tailored to these sectors.

In response to the expanding market and the need for a more specialized identity, the company rebranded as Houndware Corp. This new name reflected its transition to a focus on tool tracking and monitoring solutions. Houndware was among the first to introduce barcoding technology into the tool and equipment management space, which helped clients streamline inventory processes. As technology advanced, Houndware became a pioneer, integrating RFID technology into its offerings, making it one of the first to use RFID for real-time asset tracking.

As the company’s reputation grew and its product offerings matured, it rebranded again to ToolHound Inc. This name change represented the company’s commitment to being the go-to solution for managing tools and equipment. ToolHound continued to lead the industry with several notable firsts:

• One of the first to provide a cloud-based tool management solution, allowing users to access their data remotely and securely.
• The first to integrate wireless mobile applications for tool tracking, making it easier for workers in the field to manage equipment using handheld devices
• The first to combine barcoding and RFID technologies into a unified platform, offering clients maximum flexibility and efficiency in their operations.

ToolHound’s leadership in innovation didn’t stop there. The company also developed the first tool management software tailored specifically for the needs of construction and maintenance professionals, based on feedback and real-world experience from these industries.

Today, ToolHound Inc. stands as a global leader in tool and equipment management, with 40 plus years of innovation and customer-focused service. From pioneering early barcoding systems to being a front-runner in RFID and cloud-based technologies, ToolHound has consistently stayed ahead of the curve, providing reliable solutions that enhance productivity, maximize tool utilization, and ensure a high return on investment for its customers.
