Asset Payback™ tracks the full financial life of every item you own — what it cost, what it’s worth today, what it has earned, and whether it has paid for itself. One tap in the field, and the numbers keep themselves.
PALM’s proprietary per-item profitability engine.
They tell you an item is in Bay 3, out on a job, or back in the warehouse. Useful — but it’s half the picture. Location tells you where your money is sitting. It never tells you whether that money is working. Asset Payback™ does both — and it’s built into every plan, not a premium add-on.
Every item is tracked as a real asset — automatically, every job.
PALM books revenue to the exact items that earned it, then measures it against what you paid. The instant a piece earns back its purchase price, you see it.
Items wear. PALM applies steady, use-based depreciation every time a piece goes out, so its value reflects reality — not a number frozen on the day you bought it.
Every time a piece goes out, PALM counts it. The items earning their keep and the ones gathering dust become obvious at a glance.
Add up the current value of everything you own and you get one always-current portfolio value — the real, depreciated worth of your inventory today.
Your crew never touches a spreadsheet or a single financial number.
A crew member taps the item on their phone as it goes out the door.
Books the item’s share of the job’s revenue, logs the use, and depreciates its value — silently, instantly.
Another tap on return. Any damage gets logged on the spot, with a photo.
When an item comes back damaged, your crew logs the severity with a photo — right there in the field. Asset Payback™ adjusts the item’s value to match.
Nothing slips through. A worn-out piece can’t quietly drag down your returns while still showing full value on paper. When something’s a write-off, PALM retires it and takes it off your books cleanly.
Reinvest in the pieces that actually earn — not the ones that felt like a good idea at the trade show.
Let go of dead weight backed by real data, not a hunch.
Quote from true costs and real returns — and defend it.
Finally put a credible, current number on your biggest asset.
“Your inventory has been telling a story this whole time. Asset Payback™ finally lets you read it.”
Turn your warehouse from a pile of stuff into a portfolio you can manage.
