Where Is the Steel?
Nobody Knows.
The Challenge
Deliveries tracked by memory
A truck arrives at 7 AM. The foreman is busy managing the concrete pour. The delivery ticket goes in a pocket. By 3 PM nobody remembers what arrived, when, or in what condition.
Wrong or damaged materials discovered too late
The wrong gauge steel arrives but nobody checks the delivery against the PO. It gets installed. Discovered during inspection. Rework costs $50K and delays the project 2 weeks.
Missing deliveries waste hours of crew time
Crews standing around waiting for materials is the #1 productivity killer. When nobody tracks deliveries in real time, crews cannot plan and idle time multiplies.
No record for back-charges or disputes
The supplier says they delivered 100 sheets. You received 85. Without a documented delivery record with photos, you have no leverage in the dispute.
The POD Solution Path
Voice Delivery Logging
Truck arrives, foreman speaks: "Steel delivery from ABC Supply, 4 bundles W14x30, good condition, staged at grid line C." 60 seconds, delivery logged.
Photo Verification
Snap photos of every delivery — material, condition, quantity, and delivery ticket. Timestamped and GPS-tagged. Indisputable record for disputes and back-charges.
Delivery Discrepancy Alerts
When the delivered quantity does not match the PO, POD flags it immediately. Catch shortages and errors while the truck is still on site, not 2 weeks later.
Material Flow Analytics
Track delivery patterns, supplier reliability, staging efficiency, and material waste. Optimize your supply chain with actual data from every delivery.

“A steel delivery was sent to our old staging area on the other side of the site. Nobody logged it. The ironworkers waited 4 hours before someone found the steel. That cost us $12,000 in one day.”
