POD KPI Mapped

Most solar EPCs track 40-60 fields. This template captures 223 — including per-string electrical testing, pile driving analytics, and equipment utilization that feed directly into POD's predictive KPIs.

How POD Works with This Template

1

Download the Template

Get the free Excel template with 223 pre-structured fields. Each field includes data type prompts, units, and regulatory references (NEC 690, OSHA, NFPA 70E).

2

Fill or Speak Your Report

Complete the template in Excel, or use POD’s voice-first reporting to dictate your observations. AI maps spoken data to the correct fields automatically.

3

Dashboard Updates with 45+ KPIs

POD ingests the data and auto-populates 45+ KPIs including pile driving analytics, electrical testing, equipment utilization, and schedule variance.

What Makes This Different

Standard EPC daily logs track 40-60 fields. Here's what they miss.

Per-string electrical testing

Voc, Isc, IV curves per string — catches defects before commissioning instead of after.

Pile driving analytics

Refusal count, re-drives, production rate per machine. Predicts geotechnical issues early.

Supply chain tracking

Delivery counts, damaged units, BOL numbers. Feeds JustInTimeScore and SupplyChainResilience KPIs.

Equipment utilization

Operated vs idle hours per machine per day. Feeds EquipmentROI and IdleVsActiveHeatmap.

Quality metrics

NCRs, punch list aging, witness/hold points. Feeds InspectionFirstPassRate and ReworkVelocity.

Schedule variance

Planned vs actual per activity with S-Curve position. Feeds EarnedScheduleTracker.
