From spreadsheets to scale:
$1M risk mitigated.
A 50-column shipment spreadsheet was running RAMKO Injection’s entire facility. We replaced it with a17+ app ecosystem wired through AppSheet, SQL, and AppsScript — recovering 6,040 hours and retiring a million-dollar liability.
A facility running on one spreadsheet.
RAMKO's operations had outgrown their tooling: a 50-column shipment spreadsheet carried the facility's day-to-day, with manual tasks and re-keyed data at every handoff — and no real-time view of the operation.
RAMKO partnered with QREW Technologies for AppSheet expertise and a flexible retainer model — the tailored support needed to modernize operations and accelerate digital transformation without betting the facility on a big-bang replacement.
Retire the spreadsheet running the facility — without stopping the facility.
The 50-Column Spreadsheet
One master file ran shipments for the whole facility — a single point of failure nobody dared touch, and a million-dollar liability waiting to land.
Manual Tasks, Manual Errors
Every handoff — invoicing, receivables, PTO, reviews — meant re-keyed data and copy-paste errors compounding across systems.
No Real-Time Picture
Decisions waited on whoever had the spreadsheet open. Real-time insight into operations simply didn't exist.
An ecosystem, not another spreadsheet.
Working on a flexible retainer, QREW replaced the master spreadsheet incrementally with a17+ app ecosystem — each app owning one job, all of them wired to the systems RAMKO already ran.
AppSheet collects data and structures UI. AppsScript moves the data. QuickBooks stays the financial source of truth — and the apps cover the operation end to end.
- Operations · shipment tracking and dispatch, off the spreadsheet.
- Finance · accounts receivable and invoice management, wired to QuickBooks.
- People · paid time off and performance reviews, self-serve.
- Integration · AppSheet + AppsScript stitching it into one workflow.
Hours recovered
Manual tasks and re-keyed data across shipments, invoicing, and receivables — automated away and handed back to the operation.
Liability mitigated
The single-point-of-failure spreadsheet is retired. The exposure it carried went with it.
Added shipments
Capacity the old workflow left on the table, captured as new shipment revenue.
One wired ecosystem
Data-driven operations across the facility — with real-time insight instead of a locked spreadsheet.
A 50-column spreadsheet ran the facility. Today a17+ app ecosystem runs it — and the spreadsheet is retired.
