Log Sheets

Production Log Sheets for production tracking and manufacturing data collection — capture events, shift data and inspections, and turn them into analytical reports and dashboards automatically.

Upload shift reports in any format, or let your team fill logs from a phone, tablet or desktop. Log Sheet structures everything and builds the report and dashboard — for a line, a shop floor, or the whole company — the same day.

From shift data to a report — the same day

Instead of building a dashboard per case, you describe the report you want in plain words and the system builds it. Reports run for a single log or a whole group at once — a shop floor or the entire company, for a shift, a day or a month.

A sample request: “output and downtime by line for last week, with the reason for each stoppage”.

Find your case

Six situations we hear most often. Pick the one that sounds like your week.

Shift supervisor

40 entries a shift, written on paper, retyped from memory at the end.

The report closes itself when the shift does.

Whoever consolidates the numbers

12 forms from 12 sites, three days in Excel, every month.

One report, same day, with no BI project.

Quality control

Checklists filed in a binder, read only after an incident.

Fail rate visible week by week.

Maintenance

Nobody remembers when this pump was last serviced.

Service history per unit, one search away.

Operator with no free hands

Gloves on, no keyboard nearby. Readings go on a scrap of paper and get typed up hours later, if at all.

Say the entry out loud — it lands in the log, in the right fields.

Dispatcher chasing remote sites

Every evening, five phone calls to five sites to collect shift results, then typing them in yourself.

The call bot rings them on schedule, they answer, the log fills itself.

Three ways to get the data in

Including the sites where nobody is going to sit down at a computer.

Try the Voice AI Bot

The same bot that calls your remote sites will call you. Enter a phone number, answer a couple of questions about a shift, and watch the record land in a real log structure the moment the call ends.

  • A real outbound call — not a recording
  • Your answers land in the log fields live, while you watch
  • No install and no signup — just a phone number

Checklists

Alongside logs, the system supports checklists with the same flexible structure — configure completely different checklists, then have them filled during or after an inspection, on desktop, tablet or phone.

The three questions every operations manager asks before putting a single shift into someone else’s system.

What information is typically recorded in log sheets

Depending on the type of production and the events that need to be recorded, production log sheets may contain very different kinds of information, such as:

  • daily / shift production volume summaries
  • maintenance and repair logs
  • inspection and walk-around logs
  • HSE logs (Occupational Health and Industrial Safety)
  • instrument and meter reading logs
  • permit-to-work and access authorization logs
  • transport logs
  • inventory and auxiliary equipment issue logs
  • work logs for different employee tasks

Industries that use production log sheets

Why paper log sheets still cost you

Although keeping paper logs may seem simple, it comes with a number of significant drawbacks:

  • the information is practically inaccessible, and is usually only consulted when investigating a serious incident;
  • the person filling in the log is often not the person who holds the information — a dispatcher has to call round the sites to collect shift results;
  • discipline and the quality of record-keeping are a constant concern.
The way logsheets are used

Today, despite SCADA, MES, APS and AI advisors, more than 80% of production sites still keep at least some of their log sheets on paper.

Log sheets, logbooks, work logs — what they are

Log Sheets may be called different things – production logs, electronic logs, digital logs, depending on where they are used, but the principle of their use remains the same:

  • Production logs — recording events on the shop floor
  • Log books — recording and monitoring freight transportation, aviation and ships
  • Work logs — tracking employee work activities
  • Shift handover logs — maintaining operational continuity, preventing costly downtime and ensuring workplace safety

Regardless of the name and the field, the way log sheets are used in practice is very similar.

How to start working with Log Sheet system

Setting up your first log is an evening, not a project.

1

Initial setup

Create logs by work type (e.g. shop floor or activity), define the structure of each log — what data to record — and assign permissions to staff.

How Logsheet works — step one
2

Staff fill in their logs

Authorised employees log in and enter data from workstations or mobile devices — wherever the work happens.

How Logsheet works — step two
3

Voice assistant (optional)

Set up a voice assistant to call responsible staff on a schedule and collect the information needed to fill in the log.
