United States · Houston · Google Sheets
Sheets earns its place in Houston for field-facing collection — a form a crew completes on a phone at a site with poor connectivity, feeding a tracker the back office reads. It is a collection tool here more often than a reporting one.

Questions
Answers for this service in this market, including the ones that might cost us the job.
Ask us something elseGoogle Forms and Sheets handle intermittent connectivity reasonably well, and offline-capable collection is possible with some setup. Where coverage is genuinely absent for long stretches, a purpose-built field app is the better answer and we will say so.
Sheets when collaboration and access-from-anywhere matter most. Excel when you need computational depth, large datasets or offline work. Many teams sensibly run both, with Sheets for collection and Excel for modelling.
Yes. The usual work is building an import layer that copes with each operator's export format and produces one consistent dataset, then reporting on top of that. The import layer is where the actual difficulty lives.
