PlateSight® – ROI Checklist:
Insights into the hidden costs of one missing plate and how it can significantly impact your operations and bottom line. Let’s break down the potential expenses when a customer reports a missing plate:
Customer Service & Coordination: Your office handles the initial call, transfers it, and locates the engineering. Details are verified, and the plate size is confirmed.
Crew Dispatch: A top crew member is pulled from their current task, gathers the necessary materials (plates, portable press, cords, tools, ladder), and loads them into the company truck.
Travel Time: The trip to the site can take anywhere from 30 minutes to over 4 hours round-trip.
On-Site Work: This includes finding the address, coordinating with the framer, and locating the truss, setting up, installing the plate, and possibly doing some PR.
Post-Job Wrap-up: Loading tools back into the truck, getting approval from the framer, and reporting back to the office to review the job and what was accomplished.
Impact on Productivity: The crew member’s absence causes the team to fall behind schedule, affecting overall efficiency.
Direct Costs: These include wages, burden, potential re-inspection fees, and builder charges for downtime.
Reputation Damage: There’s also the intangible Cost of damaging your company’s reputation with both the builder and the building inspector. This can add up significantly.
