Where do issues get routed?

Configured per category per work centre — typically to a team email or a maintenance management system (CMMS). Native connectors exist for the common ones.

Can operators see their own report history?

Yes. A "my reports" tab per operator with status and outcome. Useful for shift handovers.

Is there analytics on the issues?

A simple dashboard: most-flagged machines, most-common categories, trend over time. Pre-built; no configuration.

Shop Floor Execution

uShopFloor

From paper and confusion to clarity on the floor.

Many shop floor environments still rely on paper, disconnected tools, or unclear instructions. uShopFloor translates planning into clear, executable tasks designed for gloves, noise and real environments. The interface is intentionally simple — no training should be required. Inline quality checks, materials consumption, machine status and issue capture all happen on the same screen the operator is using anyway — so the loop between planning and execution stays closed.

uShopFloor · Issue Reporting

Problems get logged where they happen.

A single tap to flag a machine issue, a missing part, a quality concern. With voice note. With context attached automatically — task, time, operator, machine. The issue goes to the right team without leaving the screen.

Voice capture

Voice notes when gloves make typing impossible. Attach automatically with the task and operator context.

Routed to the right team

Machine issue → maintenance. Quality issue → QA. Material issue → warehouse. The routing is configured once; the report goes where it can be acted on.

Status visible to reporter

The operator who logged it sees its status — acknowledged, in progress, resolved. Issues stop disappearing into the void.

What you see

The shortest path from problem to fix.

A small issue captured in the moment costs nothing. The same issue captured in a Monday review costs context. uShopFloor makes capture so fast — a tap, a photo, a 5-second voice note — that operators actually do it. The maintenance team gets a flow of small early signals; the big failures become rarer.

When this matters

Signals you'd reach for this.

Issues live in notebooks

A small machine issue noted on paper at 10:00 is forgotten by 15:00. Patterns never emerge.

Big failures have small precursors

A bearing that finally fails was making a noise for two weeks. Captured precursors prevent the big event.

Operators stop reporting

When reports disappear into a void with no feedback, operators stop bothering. Visible status keeps the flow alive.

Maintenance reacts, never prevents

A maintenance team that lives on reactive call-outs has no time for preventive work. Early-signal capture changes the ratio.

Voice notes are stored as-is — the responder hears the language the operator speaks. Optional transcription (Azure Cognitive Services) supports the major European languages.
