Software for vegetation management
Mowing, clearing, verges and the rounds on solar farms. Your crews cover a lot of ground in a day, the work is sold at a fixed price, and sooner or later someone asks whether it was actually done. FarmBackup keeps track while the work happens, so the proof is ready when they ask, and you know what every site really cost.

The work
Lots of sites, one day, one crew
The job isn't one field. It's twenty addresses. The crew heads out at seven, moves five times and finishes somewhere else entirely. Along the way the half hour between sites slips away, and so does the site that took longer than it was priced for. Sometimes the proof that the round happened goes missing too.
-
“Was it actually done?”
Without a record, a fixed-price round is paid on trust. The machine's route and the hours logged on the site settle it, and nobody has to drive out and check.
GPS tracking -
“Where's the crew got to?”
On a big site, finding an operator who's stuck can take an hour of driving around. The live map shows where every machine is and whether it's moving.
GPS tracking -
The site that eats the margin
On a fixed price, a site that runs long stays hidden until the year is over. Hours and travel time land on the site that caused them, so you see it while you can still do something about it.

The hours between sites
Driving time is work time. It's also the first thing to go missing when hours get written down at the end of the day.
