Measure What Matters: Scoreboard Metrics for Production Crews

Welcome back to The Beer Garden, the only podcast where landscaping pros talk KPIs over IPAs.

This week, we’re turning data into dollars with a deep dive into Production KPIs, the numbers that show you where you’re winning, where you’re bleeding, and what success actually looks like on the jobsite.

Whether you’re running the company, managing crews, or out in the field, this one’s for you. Because:

"You can’t fix what you don’t measure. And you definitely can’t scale chaos."

🧭 What We Cover:

• Why Production KPIs Matter


• Total Revenue Produced (per crew/ per day)


• Revenue Per Man Hour


• Gross Profit Per Man Hour


• Utilization Rate


• Budget Variance


• Quality Score


• Labor Cost % of Revenue

Whether you're chasing better margins, stronger crews, or a smoother operation—KPIs are your compass. This episode will help you put numbers to what matters and build a culture that performs.
