Follett Software has launched Event Registration, a platform helping US school districts manage community programme signups, payments and schedules in one system. The solution integrates with Follett's Facilities Schedules, making it the only vendor connecting public registration, space reservations and facility operations for schools. The platform addresses challenges from disconnected systems that cause double bookings and limited visibility into costs. Event Registration automatically submits requests to Facilities Schedules, updating the district's master calendar in real time. Key features include online registration and payments, automatic integration to prevent double bookings, customisable forms, detailed reporting on revenue and attendance, and support for multiple payment processors. The solution is available standalone or bundled with Follett's Facilities Suite.

Follett Software is bringing AI capabilities to IT Asset Manager, its K-12 technology operations platform, ahead of the 2026-27 school year. The Technology AI Assistant will launch with two features: an intelligent conversational interface and an email-to-ticket agent, with additional capabilities planned. The AI Assistant enables IT staff to query district data conversationally and receive actionable insights. The email-to-ticket agent automatically triages support requests, categorises issues, pulls device information and routes tickets appropriately. Follett Software, which serves 10,900 districts and 49 million students globally, already has over 810 districts using AI in its Library Suite. The company is building AI around a three-level framework spanning insights, automation and anticipation. All features comply with FERPA and COPPA regulations whilst respecting district policies.

Follett Software launches IT Asset Manager to transform K-12 device management. New unified platform provides clear system of record for assets and support, helping districts reduce manual work, improve accountability, and lower total cost of ownership. Follett Software, a leading provider of trusted K-12 IT operations solutions, announced the launch of IT Asset Manager, a new purpose-built platform designed to give districts and IT leaders a single command center for managing technology and day-to-day operations with real-time visibility and increased accountability. Built specifically for K-12 environments, IT Asset Manager brings together asset life cycle management and an integrated help desk in one unified platform. District technology teams gain real-time visibility into devices, tickets, usage, history, and more - without having to rely on spreadsheets, disconnected tools, or manual reconciliation. "District IT teams are under constant pressure to do more with l*********** and resources," said Chris Porter, CEO of Follett Software. "IT Asset Manager replaces a district's fragmented systems with one trusted solution that supports daily operations and leadership needs, and gives IT teams the confidence in their data and control over their workflows that they have been seeking." IT Asset Manager is designed to help districts manage technology with accuracy and consistency across schools, departments, and deployment cycles. By centralizing asset and support data, districts can reduce duplicate purchases, improve accountability, and stay audit-ready year-round. * Integrated help desk with tickets directly tied to asset records * District-wide barcode scanning with check-in and checkout workflows * Preventative maintenance scheduling and parts inventory tracking * Mobile app for field technicians to manage assets and resolve tickets on-site * Centralized dashboards for real-time visibility across all schools * Two-way integrations with leading MDM platforms and SIS systems * Life cycle tracking from procurement through retirement * W*******, insurance, and funding-source tracking * Role-based access and bulk operations for efficient fleet management
