Reports
Seven reports, built out of what your crews actually recorded
LakeOps includes seven reports — season progress, revenue, productivity, activity, customers, equipment and completed work — and every one of them exports to CSV. None of them is a dashboard of numbers nobody asked for. Each one exists because you ask that question yourself, usually in May, usually before six.
“Are we going to get everybody in before the Fourth?”
The progress report shows how much was there at the start, how fast it’s coming down, and where what’s left actually sits. The line to watch is the one showing what was still open at the end of each week. Flat means you’re treading water, and you’d rather find that out in the first week of June than the last.
- What’s left over time, and how much got finished each week
- What’s left by bay, so you know where the second boat should go
- What’s left by the gear it needs — the number that decides whether the crane goes out
- The properties that have been waiting longest, because nobody plans to forget one
“What does an hour of this actually cost me?”
Minutes per piece, minutes per stop, pieces per hour, by week and by person. Every figure came off a clock a crew member started on the water, not out of a timesheet somebody filled in on Friday. It’s the number your whole rate card should be built on, and almost no shop in this trade has it.
- Minutes per piece — the number a season gets priced from
- Where the day actually goes: the properties at the top are hard to reach or priced wrong
- By person and by service, so you can see what a new hand is costing you while he learns
- Install against removal, side by side, which is a conversation most shops need to have
“Who’s gone quiet?”
The customer report finds people with your equipment still in their water and nothing standing for next season. That list is money, and nothing else in your business surfaces it — you find those out one at a time, in April, when somebody doesn’t call.
- Customers with equipment on the shoreline and nothing arranged for next year
- Your best customers by what they were actually billed, not by how it feels
- How much of your book is on a standing arrangement and how much isn’t
- What’s on the water across the whole book, by type of equipment
Nothing’s trapped in here
Every one of the seven reports gives you a CSV of exactly the rows on the screen. The completed-work report also prints, because that’s the one an accountant asks for. The same date window carries from report to report, so the numbers keep meaning the same thing when you move between them.
- Every report exports to CSV
- The completed-work report prints, one row per piece
- The activity report is the trail: who did what, and when
- The equipment report shows what the open work is asking of your fleet
Questions about this
- Can I get my data out?
- Yes. Every one of the seven reports exports to CSV and the completed-work report prints, and there is nothing in LakeOps built to make leaving difficult.
- Do the reports work on a phone?
- Yes. They’re built to read on a phone and they’ll load on a bad connection, and they print properly when you need them on paper.

Half an hour. A few of your properties loaded, the pins dropped, a season run through it. If it’s not obviously better than what you’re doing now, that’s the answer you’ll get.
