Throughout this blog series, we will be highlighting the various ways in which Growmentum helps growers to minimize labor costs and enhance operational efficiency. In this introductory post, we briefly discuss the core framework of the Growmentum platform.
So, What Does Growmentum Do?
Growmentum equips growers with essential tools to make their operations smarter, more efficient, and strategic. Key capabilities include:
- Tracking required tasks: Know what needs to be done.
- Assigning responsibility: Delegate tasks effectively.
- Estimating task duration (Planned Labor): Anticipate how long tasks should take.
- Recording actual task completion time (Actual Labor): Track how long tasks actually take.
These core features enable Growmentum users to analyze every minute of labor, forecast upcoming tasks, and compare planned versus actual hours worked. Additionally, our platform highlights improvements in your processes over time through key performance indicators (KPIs). Thanks to these principles, we've helped Metrolina Greenhouses save over 100,000 labor hours in just one year.
Producing live goods requires a sophisticated blend of art and science, presenting unique challenges in balancing nature's unpredictability with modern production precision.
In this series, we'll show how Growmentum simplifies the complexities of greenhouse cultivation, from managing tight deadlines to addressing the many tasks/plant operations that consume a lot of labor but are often unmeasured.
