In almost every plant we walk into, the same thing happens. A job falls behind on Tuesday, and the first person to notice is the customer, calling on Friday.
It isn't a people problem. The floor knows exactly what happened. But that knowledge lives on a traveler, a whiteboard or someone's memory until it gets keyed into SyteLine days later, if it gets keyed at all. By then the schedule is built on yesterday's status, and job cost is wrong all week until someone cleans it up at close.
Your jobs report themselves
Shop-Trak closes that gap. Operators record labor, quantities and scrap at the operation, under their own name, and it posts straight to SyteLine as the work happens. There's no middleware and nothing to reconcile later.
The floor sees what matters, too. Visual Dispatch puts the live queue on shop-floor screens, so operators run the priority job instead of the easy one. Supervisors approve and adjust time before it posts, and downtime and indirect time land on the record instead of disappearing.
What's new
If you last looked at Shop-Trak a few years ago, it has changed:
- Work instructions the shop floor can’t skip
- Visual Dispatch TV board
- Shop-Trak Mobile
Where it fits on the Lake MES Platform
Shop-Trak is the foundation the rest of the platform builds on. Shop-Trak, Doc-Trak and Fact-Trak already work on your SyteLine data today. The first direct product-to-product integration, Shop-Trak and Machine-Trak, is expected by the end of 2026, with more through 2027.
