How FOREMAN Works

Capture Data Once.
Use Everywhere.

The Load isn't just a task. It's the source record connecting floor activity, employees, production, payroll, billing, invoices, and reporting. Every calculation runs off that same record, from the floor to the office.

Intelligence

Every step above feeds one operational record.

The Problem

Your floor runs on paper. Your decisions shouldn't.

Manual tracking creates blind spots, and blind spots cost productivity, accuracy, and trust.

Paperwork gets lost

Clipboards get lost, damaged, or become unreadable. Reconciling those records against payroll and billing creates unnecessary administrative work.

No real-time visibility

You don't know what's happening on the floor until the shift is already over, and the problem already cost you time.

Slow billing and payroll

Manual reconciliation between paper timesheets, customer billing, and payroll slows everyone down.

Inconsistent across sites

Every location tracks things a little differently, making it impossible to standardize or compare performance.

How Warehouse Labor Gets Paid

Hourly. Production. Hybrid.

Warehouse labor isn't compensated the same way everywhere. FOREMAN keeps the work performed, the crew that performed it, and how pay and billing are configured all tied back to the same Load.

Hourly

Crew time is tracked from clock-in to clock-out, tied to the Load they worked.

Production

Cases, pieces, pallets, containers, weight, or other measurable units are captured against the Load, and can drive employee pay and customer billing independently.

Hybrid

Time and production data live on the same Load record, however your operation pays and bills for it.

Load Traceability

Every Load tells the whole story.

A Load starts in four steps, so the floor never waits on a form. Everything else, including load details, attachments, signed paperwork, incident reports, notes, and documents, gets added as the work actually happens.

Payroll isn't a mystery number. Every employee's pay traces back to the Loads, hours, rates, and production payout that produced it.

Operational Intelligence

Ask your operation a question.

Every shift, load, and dollar your teams capture becomes a trusted operational record. Your payroll and billing calculations stay backed by your configured business rules. FOREMAN just makes that record easy to ask questions of.

Why was payroll higher this week?

Which loads took longer than expected?

What happened on Load #1842?

Where are we spending the most overtime?

Value

Where FOREMAN creates value.

Less chasing supervisors for information

What happened on a Load is on the record, not in someone's memory or a text thread.

Less duplicate data entry

What the floor captures is what finance uses. No re-keying between systems.

Faster payroll review

Labor data is tied to each Load and ready for review as soon as the shift ends.

Faster billing preparation

Completed work is ready to bill without a separate reconciliation pass.

Better visibility into active labor

See active work, crews, and Loads across every site, as it happens.

Clear operational history

Every Load, shift, and invoice stays on the record, searchable long after the fact.

FAQ

Questions operators ask us.

No. Workers just tap in, log loads, and tap out. The floor workflow is intentionally simple and focused on the actions workers need during a shift, and there's no manual to read.

FOREMAN is not a traditional WMS. It focuses on warehouse labor operations, and can work alongside your existing warehouse systems or serve as the primary tool for the labor workflow.

Yes. Every site rolls up into one standardized dashboard, so you can compare and manage locations from a single view.

Verified activity from the floor flows directly into your billing and payroll, replacing manual timesheet reconciliation.

No. FOREMAN calculates and reviews payroll from your operational records: clock-ins, production, and crew activity tied to each Load. Payroll is accurate before it's processed, but actual payment still runs through your existing payroll or payment process.

Yes. Loads, crews, and productivity are tracked per customer and per site, so nothing gets mixed up across accounts.

The app is built for the floor, not a back office. Workers only see what applies to their shift. Nothing more.

Your data is handled with the same care as any production business system, and only your team can access it.

Every warehouse labor operation works differently.
