Stratum Track

Your team shouldn't be writing reports. We automate that.

Send us a completed report, whether that's a strip-down report, an inspection report or a test certificate, and Stratum Track builds the technician workflow and the branded client report from it. Your team captures photos, checks, measurements and sign-offs on the floor or on site. The client report generates the moment the job is done. Built for engineering workshops and inspection providers in mining, oil and gas, and heavy industry.

Consistency

Every job is only as good as the technician on it.

Your most experienced people shortcut the paperwork when the day gets busy. Your newest people haven't learned the right way yet. Either way, steps get missed and the standard ends up living in a few heads. Stratum Track puts the standard into the job itself. The workflow walks the technician through each step and won't let the work move on until it's done, so a new starter turns out a job to the same standard as your best.

Every step
Enforced, in order

The workflow takes the technician through the job and won't let it close with a step skipped.

Every photo
Captured, not chased

Photos, measurements and sign-offs happen as the work does, so the report is complete and audit-ready.

Training
Built into the job

The job guides the technician through the right steps, so new starters reach your standard faster.

What it does

Three things it does.

01

Instant reports from captured data

Branded, client-ready output the moment the job is closed. No collation, no copy-paste, no Friday afternoons lost to formatting.

02

The standard, built into the job

Tolerances and acceptance criteria to spec, mandatory hold points, required photos. The standard is enforced as the job runs, so it isn't left to one person to catch.

03

Made for the floor and the field

Designed for tablets in dusty workshops and out on site. Big tap targets, simple flows, no menus to memorise. Greasy hands welcome.

How it works

From your report to a signed-off job. Five steps.

01

Send

Send us a completed report you produce by hand today, or describe a job your team runs every week.

02

Draft

Stratum Track builds the workflow from it: stages, fields, required photos, checks, hold points and the report style.

03

Approve

Your team reviews and approves the template. Nothing goes live until you say so.

04

Capture

Technicians scan a QR code and capture the job on a tablet. Photos, checks, measurements, sign-offs.

05

Generate

The branded client report generates the moment the job closes. Signed, time-stamped, audit-ready.

Draft Reviewed Approved Live

AI helps us set the workflow up. We draft it from your report, your team reviews it and signs it off, and only then does it go live. Once it's running, every report is built from what your technicians capture on the floor. The measurements, the photos and the sign-offs are theirs, not generated by AI.

Inside Stratum Track

A closer look at the features that earn their place.

Seven things Stratum Track does that a spreadsheet, a paper job sheet, or an off-the-shelf job system never will.

01 · Tolerances

ISO 286 tolerances, calculated for you.

Stop looking up values on separate sheets and copying them onto job forms. Stratum Track holds the ISO 286 reference data, calculates the tolerance for any nominal size and class automatically, and checks the measurement against spec the moment it's entered.

Pass or fail, in real time. The technician just measures. Instrument IDs are captured with the job, so the report shows which gauge took the reading.

02 · Evidence

Every photo the job requires.

Photos are required, not requested. Stratum Track marks every shot the job needs and won't let the work progress until it's captured. Each photo carries the technician's name, the date, and the job number embedded in the file.

Add as many supplementary shots as you need. Download the whole set whenever you want. It's your data.

Mandatory captureEmbedded metadataBulk export

03 · Sign-off

Hold points that stop the job.

Configure Hold, Witness, and Review points anywhere in a workflow. When a technician reaches one, the job stops. They hand the tablet to whoever has to sign: a supervisor witnessing a fit-up, a client's representative, or the senior signatory who countersigns every report before it goes out.

The signature is captured, time-stamped, and embedded directly in the final report. Clear for an audit, clear for the customer.

04 · Access

Scan the code. Get to work.

Every job pack carries a QR code. Technicians scan it on a tablet, enter their employee number, and they're working on the right job in seconds.

No login screens and no menus to navigate. Nobody has to ask which job is theirs.

05 · Workflows

Workflows shaped to your operation.

New, in-progress, completed, reviewed, archived. Or whatever you call the stages. Stratum Track adapts to how your operation runs, with custom statuses, custom transitions, and custom rules for who can do what.

Every job, every site, in one view. We set it up with you. The system enforces it from then on.

Custom statusesMulti-siteRole-based rules

06 · Safety

A Take 5 before every task. No paper, no missed steps.

Paper booklets get lost, photographed, or quietly skipped under deadline pressure. Stratum Track puts the Take 5 on the tablet, one tap from the home screen. Workshop, job, work area, hazards, controls, sign-off. Done in a minute, before the spanner comes out.

Every Take 5 is logged against the technician, the job, and the time. Supervisors see completion in real time. Auditors get the trail without rifling through booklets.

07 · Visibility

Watch jobs unfold from the office.

Project managers see every job progress live. Measurements, photos, hold-point sign-offs, and notes appear the moment they're captured.

That means a workshop can have quotes out and parts on order before the job is handed back, and an inspection manager sees a failed item the moment it's called, not when the paperwork lands days later.

Live job feedReal-time visibilityFaster quoting
A job is still on the floor and you can already see the measurements, the photos and the sign-offs. The quote can go to the supplier and the parts can be on order before the job is back on your desk.

FAQ

The questions we get most.

How long does it take to go live?

The pilot runs for 30 days. Configuration and tablet rollout typically take the first week, so you can expect your first automated reports inside two weeks of kick-off.

What happens to our existing report formats?

We keep them. Stratum Track is configured to your existing templates, your existing branding, and your existing terminology. Clients receiving the reports won't see a difference, except the reports will arrive faster and be more consistent.

Can our clients see the reports themselves?

Yes. Reports are generated as branded PDFs the moment a job closes and can be emailed straight to the client, or shared via a secure link. Same format, every time, so the people receiving them know exactly where to look.

Who owns the data?

You do. Photos, measurements, sign-offs, reports. All exportable, all yours. We don't hold your data hostage. If you ever want to leave, we hand it all back in a usable format.

Is it ISO compliant?

Stratum Track enforces the standard you configure. ISO 286 dimensional tolerances are built in, and acceptance criteria from your own procedures and specs are enforced the same way. Hold points, photographic evidence, and sign-offs are built around what auditors look for. We work to ISO 27001-aligned operational practices on our own infrastructure.

Our report formats are controlled documents under our accreditation. Can you keep them?

Yes. Stratum Track generates your report, not ours: your layout, your logo, your accreditation marks, your fields, reproduced from the report you send us. Nothing about your accreditation changes. Your procedures, your signatories and your quality system remain the authority, and the document your client receives is still your controlled document. We just make sure it's filled in from what was captured on the job, not retyped afterwards.

What does it cost?

We discuss pricing on the discovery call once we understand the operation, the job mix, and the volume. We don't publish prices on the public site because the right number depends on the operation.

Get started

Send us a report.

Send us one completed report: a strip-down, an inspection sheet, a test report. We'll turn it into a draft Stratum Track workflow and a branded sample report, built on your own job and not a generic demo, then walk you through it.

  • A draft workflow built from your own report
  • A branded sample report in your format
  • A straight answer on whether it's the right fit

Client details in your report? Redact them, or send a blank report template. The layout is all we need. If you'd rather we sign an NDA first, just say so in the message.

We use your report only to build your draft. We don't train models on it. How we handle your data. For files over 4 MB, email hello@stratumsoftware.io.
