Top 10 Business Benefits

Author: Stockpile Reports

What are the benefits of using Stockpile Reports’ online service?

We’ve met with several clients in the field this week, and they have consistently been impressed with how easy the service is to use, and with the quality of their reports.

Of course, we never get tired of hearing that from our customers! However, there is more to appreciate about our measurement system besides how easy it is to use. Your financial team and upper-management may not be able to collect data on-site, but they also benefit.

Here are the top 10 ways:

• Increase Productivity: Collect data for each construction aggregates stockpile in minutes. Eliminate the travel time required by a full-time, survey team.
• Greater Timeliness: Receive aggregates tonnage and volume calculations in hours, instead of days or weeks. Implement new, competitive business strategies based on timely data.
• Greater Relevance: Calculate aggregates stockpile tonnage every day, week or month, instead of every quarter or year. Reduce safety stock.
• Comparable Accuracy: Aggregates tonnage and volume calculations are comparable to stationary LiDAR and mobile laser scanning.
• Automatic Audit Trail: Each stockpile has a visual record and timestamped report generated, allowing audit trails to be automatically generated for each stockpile measured.
• Remote Site Management and Site Accountability: With each report, remote managers can visually inspect the quality and state of each pile to ensure proper site management.
• Promote Employee Safety and MSHA Regulatory Compliance: Collect stockpile data by walking around stockpiles. Use each Site Report to plan, position and manage stockpiles more safely.
• Simpler Training: Simply point an iPhone® 4S, iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s while walking and recording imagery.
• Lower Equipment Costs: Replace expensive LiDAR and GPS devices with an inexpensive iPhone 4S or iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s device.
• Greater Consistency: Collect stockpile data using best-practice processes at every mining, quarrying, rock crushing and aggregates distribution location, every time.
