Incomplete handover records for shared laboratory equipment

Equipment condition, accessories and outstanding issues are not clearly recorded between users.

Research area: Space Science Outreach and Research TerminalsProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Map the information needed at preparation, use, shutdown and the next handover.
  2. Design shared status indicators, accessory checklists and task summaries.
  3. Run consecutive user drills to check handover completeness.

Key Deliverables

  • Equipment Handover Form
  • Status Interface
  • Accessory Location Map

Verification Approach

Check for missing accessories, status confusion and repeated queries.
