SnowPlow Ops is a customizable operations management system for snow-plowing organizations, combining a back-office website with an iOS operator app. Administrators assign routes and manage operators, while crews view assignments, sign in for shifts and complete truck and equipment safety checks. The app provides turn-by-turn voice navigation with route comments and instructions. Operators can pause routes without losing progress, join active routes with others, exchange messages with the office and record breaks with timestamps and reasons visible to supervisors. Incident reports can include photos with automatic time and geolocation stamps, and supervisors receive real-time alerts. End-of-route reports are saved automatically. The system supports route planning, crew scheduling and service logs. SnowPlow Ops was founded in 2007 and is based in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Its iPad app requires iPadOS 13.0 or later and is listed as free; software pricing is available on request.
