Spreadsheet process
- Locations described in notes and tribal knowledge
- Copies diverge between office and field
- Photos and drawings live in separate systems
- Updates wait for someone to retype field information
Spreadsheet replacement
Yard Tracker vs. Spreadsheets
Move from a static list of what should be there to a shared view of what the shift is doing now.
Replace spreadsheet-based yard inventory with mapped locations, mobile updates, assignments, photos, documents, and an offline OCR capture queue.
Shared yard record
- Visual pins connect assets to actual yard locations
- Crew changes return to the office workflow
- Photos and blueprints stay with asset details
- Assigned moves have visible progress
A spreadsheet stores rows. The yard runs work.
Yard Tracker keeps the simple clarity buyers expect from an inventory list, then connects it to location, field execution, documentation, and OCR-assisted mobile capture.
No Hardware Project. No Long Rollout.
Use current devices, map the yard, assign handling work, and keep field records connected to the office workflow.
