What PlowOps is
PlowOps is a digital operations platform for public works departments, with tools for dispatching routes, monitoring service, and keeping shift records. Supervisors can send routes from Central Command, while operators can self-assign on a tablet. Live maps show service status, time since the last pass, pass count, and completion percentage. PlowOps ProHub connects vehicle sensor data for blade status and material tracking. Shift playback and reports cover hours, miles, material use, and blade efficiency. Drivers can perform pre-trip inspections and attach issue photos for mechanics, or add geolocated observations that approaching operators receive as visual and audible warnings. Supervisors can send one-way messages that play through cab audio or appear on tablets for drivers to read when stopped. Cities can embed a branded public tracking page with a 10-minute delay and an address lookup for recent plow activity. The system also supports street sweeping, mowing, leaf collection, pothole and asphalt repair, and parks and trail work. It runs on web and Android. Pricing is available on request, and the site offers customized demos.
