The wins for Arlo Express Sheetmetals
A 10-person sheet metal shop grew to 200 staff and $15M+ revenue without losing grip on margin — live time tracking on the floor cut average job times by 25%.
Where they started
Arlo Express Sheetmetals began as a ten-person shop turning around $1M a year. Jobs were tracked on paper, labour costs were guessed at the end of the week, and growth meant gambling against margin.
What changed
Empower put live time tracking on the workshop floor. Every minute of work was attributed to the right job in real time — so the office stopped reconstructing labour from memory and started reading it off a dashboard.
The result
Average job times dropped by 25%. Labour cost control tightened enough that headcount could scale without margin sliding — Arlo grew to around 200 staff and over $15M in annual revenue while running a leaner job-cost picture than they'd ever had at ten people.
