Work assignments, activity logging, crew scheduling, and reporting — built for municipal teams that keep communities running.
The Problem
Municipal teams juggle reactive emergencies and proactive maintenance with limited visibility into daily operations.
Clipboards, carbon copies, and filing cabinets. When a council member asks for a status update, someone has to dig through a stack of paper to find it.
The foreman knows where everyone is. Nobody else does. When supervisors or elected officials ask what got done today, the answer takes hours to compile.
Without a system to schedule preventive maintenance, everything is a fire drill. Potholes get patched after complaints, not before they become sinkholes.
Manual timesheets submitted weekly from memory. Overtime disputes, unclear project allocation, and no data for budget justifications.
Built for Public Works
Create and assign work orders to individual crew members or teams. Priority levels, locations, and descriptions — all digital, all trackable.
Crews log what they did, where, and how long it took. Photos, notes, and timestamps create a complete record of every task.
Schedule crews by day, week, or project. See who's available, who's on overtime, and where resources are allocated.
Clock in/out per assignment. Automatic totals by project, department, and pay period. No more reconstructing timesheets from memory.
Generate reports on completed work, crew productivity, and response times. Give supervisors and officials the data they need.
Crews use their phones — no special hardware needed. Works offline-capable and installs as a PWA. No app store required.
Full double-entry bookkeeping with general ledger, financial statements, period close, and CPA export. No separate accounting software needed.
Connect municipal bank accounts for automatic transaction matching and reconciliation.
Departments
Each department type gets tailored terminology and workflows that match how public works teams operate.
Day in the Life
Open WrkOrdr and review today's assignments: pothole repairs on Main Street, storm drain clearing on Oak Ave, and a sign replacement at the park. Assign crews and set priorities.
Each crew member sees their assignments on their phone. They clock in, drive to their first site, and start logging work with photos and notes.
Water main break reported. Reassign the closest crew through WrkOrdr. They get a push notification with the location and priority level. Response time logged automatically.
From the office, the supervisor sees all completed and in-progress work on the dashboard. Six of eight assignments done. Water main repair on track for completion by 4 PM.
All work logged with timestamps, photos, and crew hours. The foreman generates a daily summary for the town administrator in one click. Tomorrow's assignments are already queued.
