Keep material moving
and problems visible

GreenSpark gives operations leaders a clear view of what’s happening in the yard, so issues surface early and throughput stays high.

Challenges

The challenges operations teams face

Even strong yards struggle when visibility breaks down.

  • Inventory never seems to add up to what you see with your eyes in the yard
  • Bottlenecks only show up once trucks are backed up or piles overflow
  • Regrades, blends, and WIP are hard to trace end to end
  • Each yard or shift runs slightly differently, making comparisons unreliable
Common Limitations

Why these problems persist

Most systems weren’t built for how scrap actually flows. They capture transactions, but not movement, transformation, or loss. As volume and complexity increase, small inconsistencies turn into real operational blind spots.

The GreenSpark Solution

How GreenSpark supports operations teams

Operational reliability requires systems built to surface issues, not hide them.

Operational visibility you can act on

  • See material move from inbound to WIP to finished goods in real time
  • Manage complex batch production to support chopper and shredder workflows
  • Drill into specific yards, workflows, or materials when something looks off

Control without constant firefighting

  • Standardized workflows reduce variation across teams
  • Exceptions are surfaced early instead of weeks later
  • Robust audit trails for all inventory movements

Operational truth you can stand behind

  • Trust inventory counts and yields across locations
  • Explain loss, shrink, or inefficiency with data the business accepts
  • Spend more time improving processes, less time defending numbers
Built-In Intelligence
