Highway Crew Productivity

35 Crews. 480 Workers.
One Productivity Dashboard.

The Challenge

01

Crew output is estimated, not measured

Superintendents guess at daily output. Without accurate production data, you cannot identify bottlenecks or reward top crews.

02

Equipment utilization is unknown

Excavators, pavers, and rollers sit idle for hours. Without tracking, you pay for equipment that is not producing.

03

Headcount changes daily

Crews fluctuate in size based on weather, schedule, and availability. Tracking actual headcount per spread is manual guesswork.

04

Cannot compare crew performance

Is the paving crew on Spread 3 faster than Spread 1? Without standardized data, you cannot compare or improve.

The POD Advantage

Daily Crew Output Tracking

Measure real output

Foremen log production quantities per crew per shift. Tons paved, CY moved, LF installed - all measured and tracked.

Equipment Hour Logging

Maximize utilization

Track equipment hours per machine per day. See utilization rates and identify idle equipment costing you money.

Real-Time Headcount by Spread

Know your workforce

Digital check-in gives you exact headcount per spread, per crew, per shift. No more guessing.

Crew Performance Comparison

Data-driven improvement

Compare production rates across crews and spreads. Identify top performers and share best practices.

Key Features

“We identified a 30% output gap between two paving spreads. Fixing it saved us three weeks on the schedule.”
