Run the plant desk from order entry to compliant shipment
Evos operators take a dealer or contractor order, slot it into the production schedule, keep the line fed with material, and ship it with current certs. They run on your ERP, your scheduling board, and your cert files, live in 24 hours.

The reality
The desk that turns an order into a shipment is a stack of spreadsheets and phone calls.
A contractor order lands by email or EDI. Someone keys it into the ERP, eyeballs the production board to guess a lead time, and calls back to confirm a date. Planning re-sequences the batch run in a spreadsheet to dodge a changeover. Purchasing checks aggregate and cement levels against the new schedule and chases a supplier when the number is short. Before the pallets leave, somebody pulls the ICC-ES report and the ASTM test data so the load ships code-compliant. Every handoff is manual, and every code cycle means retesting and reissuing certs before product can go out the door.
None of this is hard work, but it is constant. A missed lead-time quote loses the order; a late material buy idles the line; an expired cert stops a shipment cold. The only way plants have ever kept up is by adding planners, order-desk staff, and a compliance coordinator, and then adding more when volume climbs.
