Shift output and yield reports
Yesterday's output, scrap and downtime on one page before 7am. Supervisors send one quick message, and nobody spends the morning typing up clipboards.

How it runs
What we build, step by step.
This is the usual shape. Yours gets built around how your team actually does the job.
- 01
One message at the end of the shift
Supervisors reply to a short text or Teams message with units made, scrap, downtime and why. A photo of the sheet works too.
- 02
Checked as it comes in
Numbers that don't fit (more scrap than units, a line with no entry) get a quick question back while the supervisor is still on site.
- 03
Added to the record
Every shift's figures go into one sheet by line, product and shift.
- 04
A morning report
Output against plan, yield, scrap by reason and the worst downtime, on one page in your inbox before 7am.
- 05
Trends flagged
A line whose yield keeps slipping, or a downtime reason that keeps coming back, gets called out on its own.
Shown with software we see a lot. If your team uses something else, we build it into that instead.
Built for your business
Same job, different business. We build yours.
Two firms in the same trade rarely run a job the same way. Different software, different steps, different people signing off. We build it for your business, around how your team actually does the job.
Your steps
Built around the order your team already works in, odd exceptions included.
Your software
Runs inside the tools you already pay for, set up the way you use them.
Your rules
Your wording, your limits, your sign-offs. Nothing generic goes out in your name.
You sign off
Your team keeps the final say.
Supervisors own their numbers. If a figure gets corrected, they correct it, and the report shows what changed.
What it's worth
What those hours add up to.
4 hours a week, over 46 working weeks, is 184 hours a year. At $50 an hour, that’s
$9,200
back in the business, every year.
Typical, not promised.
Before and after
The job, before and after.
How it runs today
Supervisors fill in a sheet at the end of the shift. Someone types them up the next morning, the numbers don't quite add up, and by the time you spot a bad yield it's three days old.

A month in
You see yesterday's yield before the morning meeting, problems get talked about while they're fresh, and nobody starts the day retyping clipboards.
FAQ
Our supervisors aren't app people. Will they use it?
Yes, because shift reporting is a text or a Teams message, with no app to learn. Most supervisors are done in under two minutes.
Can it read counts straight off our machines?
Yes, if your machines already log counts somewhere we can reach. Most small plants start with the supervisor's numbers and add machine counts later.
