Telure for a CTE shop · $199/mo
The guard walk, on the phone of whoever is setting up
The guard comes off for a setup at sixth period and goes back on by somebody who is teaching seventh, the grinder work rest opens up a little every month, the dust bin fills on nobody's calendar, and the lift certificate lives in a drawer. Telure turns the period walk, the monthly machine pass and the yearly inspections into one dated, attributed, tamper-evident record for every shop in the building.
The demo is a full fictional facility, Havenbrook Township Schools CTE Shops, with a year of records. No account needed.
Day to day
The clipboard by the tool crib stops being the system. A QR on the shop door opens the guard walk on the phone of whoever is setting up, so the check happens standing at the point of operation instead of from memory at the end of the day. The monthly machine pass arrives as a task with an assignee, a reminder and an overdue escalation rather than a note in a teacher's plan book, and the yearly inspections stop being certificates in a drawer: each one files against its own task with every cited deficiency opened as an item somebody owns.
When a claim surfaces
A year later nobody asks whether you check the guards. They ask when that band saw was last looked at, by whom, and what they wrote down, and a whiteboard that gets wiped at the bell cannot answer it. Every item is timestamped the moment it is tapped, by the person who tapped it, on an append-only hash-chained ledger; corrections appear as visible amendments beside the original, never as quiet edits; and logging an incident freezes a hash-locked snapshot of the history that existed at that moment.
At renewal
Districts carry this through a pool or a self-insured retention and independent schools through a carrier, and both ask the same thing at renewal: show us the program for the shops. Instead of describing it you hand over a dated, verifiable export, or a roll-up across every building that has a shop in it: a semester of guard walks, dust and housekeeping rounds, cylinder checks, lift checks, machine authorizations, closures and repairs, with per-item attribution and integrity anyone can check at floorkept.com/verify. A documented program like that can factor favorably into underwriting, and a board or a parent asking the same question gets the same packet.
What you get, running a CTE shop
Every machine on a registry with its own history
Saws, jointers, lathes, mills, grinders, welders, extraction arms, dust collectors, compressors and lifts go on a registry with manufacturer, model, serial and installed date, each with its own intervals. A service visit becomes a dated interval completion against that specific machine and a repair is an attributed event on it, so "which of the four is that" is never a question in a room with four identical grinders.
Taking a machine out of service is a record, not a sign taped to it
A shop machine gets a piece of cardboard and a roll of tape, and the cardboard is gone by Monday. In Telure, pulling a machine is a recorded event: who took it out, why, and who authorized putting it back. It stays visibly out of service on the registry until somebody with a name returns it, and the reason it came out is still readable a year later.
Who is cleared to run which machine, on a board that counts down
Machine authorizations, lockout training, hot work and fire watch, first aid and the fit test on a respirator all lapse, and every one of them is usually a signature on a sheet in a folder. Record each as a module against the people who hold it, with the date it was done and the date it expires, and it shows as expiring 30 days out rather than on the morning somebody notices. A colleague signs off each item as they watch it done. Telure records what you tell it and when it lapses; it does not issue, verify or endorse anybody's credential.
The yearly reviews land as records instead of certificates in a drawer
The energy control procedure review, the lift inspection and the qualified-person walk through the shops each get their own task, their own date and the name of whoever performed it. The report files against the task, and every deficiency in it opens a corrective-action item with an owner, so the closure of each one is on the record rather than in somebody's memory of what the inspector said.
Dust and housekeeping recorded where it accumulates
Dust is the one hazard in a wood shop that builds continuously and looks like nothing until it is a lot of something, and it is recorded almost nowhere. The housekeeping walk covers floors, ledges, beams, machine tops and the ductwork run by run, each area its own item with a name against it, so a week where nobody swept is visible as a week where nobody swept.
A corrective queue that closes
Every finding, whether it came off a period walk or out of an inspection report, opens a corrective-action item on the queue. The queue shows what is open, how long it has been open, and who closed it. That is what turns "we knew about that saw" into "we found it on the 4th, locked it out the same period, and the guard was replaced on the 11th".
Records that cannot be quietly edited
Entries are immutable once submitted (enforced by the database, not policy) and hash-chained so alteration is detectable. Corrections appear as visible amendments beside the original. A log anybody can tidy up after a student is hurt is worse than no log at all, and this is the difference between a checklist app and evidence.
An incident freezes its history
Logging an incident writes a hash-locked snapshot of the prior 90 days of inspection history for that shop into the incident itself: exactly which guard walks, machine passes, housekeeping rounds and closures existed at that moment, provable years later, whatever the file looks like when it is finally opened.
Recalls checked against what you actually run
Public recall data is polled daily and compared against your registered machines, dust collection, extraction and lifts, serial ranges included. A match opens a documented response flow at the building that owns the machine, instead of a bulletin that reached an inbox nobody reads.
The manufacturer's manual stays in charge
Where a manufacturer's documentation sets an inspection type or an interval, that documentation governs, and Telure shows the difference against the pack's cadence rather than resolving it quietly. In a shop that matters constantly: guard adjustments, wheel speeds and mounting, filter and cable replacement figures and lift maintenance intervals all come out of the manual for that specific model, and the manual filed against the machine is what governs.
The export a district, a board or an insurer can verify
A dated, paginated PDF for any shop and any period, or a roll-up across every building in the district: adherence and gaps reported explicitly, per-item attribution shown, closures cross-referenced, integrity verification printed on the cover and checkable by anyone at floorkept.com/verify.
The Telure Standards for a CTE shop
A Telure-curated list of recurring inspections and reviews. In the product it works as an alignment tracker: you turn it on, match the work you already run to the clauses it covers, and record a reason for any clause that does not apply here. Turning it on adds no tasks, and it is not a certification. The manufacturer’s manual governs all equipment intervals.
