Multi-Facility Operations

For multi-facility operations, you have the same challenges as a superintendent and general manager but multiplied across the number of operations you are responsible for.  Turf Assistant helps you craft plans and forecasts and gives you the visibility across all your operations that things are going to plan.  Oh and while we know you will never need it, it also helps justify where budgeted dollars went when unexpected projects are requested and then questioned.

What people say

“Here at Blackhawk Country Club, we have a very extensive property that covers well over 2,000 acres and encompasses two 18-hole golf courses and a residential community. To be able to efficiently track the progress of employees with the use of Turf Beacons throughout the day has saved time and money. I highly recommend installing the beacons to improve crew efficiency, easier supervision, accountability and progress throughout the day.”
Kevin Sullivan, Director of Agronomy
Kevin Sullivan, Director of AgronomyBlack Hawk Country Club San Francisco Bay Area
"We are using Turf Assistant to help our agronomic operation across multiple facilities. From the ground up, it allows us to complete a plan that meets the needs of our customer and then hand it over to our professionals in the field to execute. The data created is critical to help us to continually improve for both turf management and for budget. Our course that implemented the program on the first of the year has been able managed labor to within sixty hours of budget year-to-date. That is really impressive!"

“When membership started questioning where our labor dollars were being spent it blew my mind that with the click of a button I was able to show them and make them understand. We had been using Turf Assistant for months but I didn’t really realize the power in the data and how easy it was to access.”

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Alex Borzo   Customer Support / Project Manager

Copywriting and editing have been my bread and butter for more than a decade, both as a career and a passion. These creative skills come together in my portfolio of print materials, digital marketing and even whole websites—instead of hiring a copywriter, web developer and designer, clients just work with me.
The need for vision in marketing has been enormously rewarding as I’ve stretched my wings in all-things-content. I’ve written and consulted my way across 40 different industries since starting my creative firm, and the ever-present sense for the “bigger picture” has served me well.
My time at Turf Assistant has been well spent with an endless list of opportunities to learn and grow more in this space.
