About
We didn’t set out to build software.
We set out to stop losing money on paperwork. Iron Dispatch is written by a former operations manager of Cold Country Equipment in Wamsutter, Wyoming — and Cold Country tests it on real trucks and real pads. Same trucks. Same lease roads. The same month-end that does not add up. Everything in it is here because a day went sideways first.
Where it started
The 340 gallons that never made it onto an invoice.
Most companies in this business have a version of the same story. Fuel leaves the yard. Somebody writes a ticket on a dashboard. The ticket rides around in a door pocket. By the time anyone types it up, nobody can say for sure what happened. That is not carelessness. The work just moves faster than the paper.
We tried everything else first. The general field-service tools we looked at did not know what a well site was, let alone a crew rotation. The oilfield systems that did were built for companies with a hundred trucks and an IT department. They were priced that way too, and you could not even see the price without a sales call. Nothing in the middle was built for a company our size.
So I left to build the thing we needed — and Cold Country has been testing it since, on real trucks and real pads.
Who it’s for
Companies big enough to lose track, small enough to feel it.
Five trucks to fifty. Fuel, service, rentals, or all three. The kind of company where the owner still knows every unit by name, and the office is two people who already have enough to do.
- The office — holding six things in their head at once, and the seventh is the one that costs you.
- The field — gloves on, sun in the screen, forty miles out, and no bars. That is what the app is built for.
What we hold to
Three rules we don’t break.
The field decides
If a driver in gloves at 10 degrees cannot do it in three taps, it does not ship. The office screen can be busy. The truck screen cannot.
Nothing gets typed twice
A gallon logged at the tank is the gallon on the invoice. Every time a number gets typed again, you can lose money — and it goes quietly.
Say where we actually are
We are new and we say so. No customer logos we have not earned. No numbers we cannot show you the math on.
Next
See it on your own trucks and sites.
Everything on this site is a screen that exists. The quickest way to know whether it fits your company is to put your own units, pads and crew on it and run a week.
If your month closes out of four spreadsheets, we should talk.
Twenty minutes. Your trucks and your sites on the screen. An honest answer about whether this fits your company.
