Labor productivity record
Field recordCrew, hours and quantity installed — with hours per unit worked out from the two numbers you typed.
Two numbers and the ratio between them
Every production tracking sheet is the same two numbers — hours spent and quantity installed — and everybody does the division on their phone. The sheet does that one division, to three decimal places, with the rule printed underneath where the person filling it in can check it.
It sets no target and ranks nobody
There is no benchmark, no norm, no color, no arrow and no comparison anywhere in this tool, because there is no honest data behind one. It is also not an assessment of anybody's work: the row is a crew and an activity, and the form asks you to keep individuals out of it.
Around it
Hours for a person and a week are the hours log. Who was on site is the manpower & equipment log, quantities measured off drawings are the material takeoff worksheet, and what a finished job made is the job profit summary.
A record of hours and quantities you entered, with one stated ratio derived from them. It sets no target, publishes no benchmark, converts no units, compares no crew to another and is not an assessment of any person's work. Everything runs on your device.
Questions people ask
- How is the figure worked out?
- Hours divided by quantity done, to three decimal places, using the two numbers on that row. If either is missing, or the quantity is zero, the cell stays blank rather than showing a zero — because a zero is a measurement somebody took and a blank is the absence of one. The rule is printed under the grid on the page.
- Is there a target or a benchmark?
- No, and there will not be. This product holds no productivity data, publishes no industry norm and compares nothing to anything. A number here means exactly “the two figures you typed, divided”, and nothing on the sheet says whether it is good.
- Does it compare crews or people?
- It does not. Nothing is ranked, scored or compared — not between crews, not between days, not between companies. The subject of a row is a crew or a company and an activity, and the form says to keep individuals out of it.
- What if my units are inconsistent?
- Then your ratios are, and the tool will not notice. It converts nothing and assumes nothing about units: square feet and linear feet on adjacent rows produce two ratios that should not be compared, and only you know that. Keeping the unit column honest is the discipline the sheet asks for.
