Michigan company takes turf management online

789d18725f01384ba2139d750207d849-.jpgLeave it to a company from Michigan with a name from down under to take online record keeping over the top for superintendents.

 
Michigan-based Sydney Solutions recently launched a Web-based version of its SPaRKS system for planning and monitoring pesticide and fertilizer use and costs. 
 
An acronym for the Superintendents Planning and Record Keeping System, SPaRKS helps turf managers plan and track fertilizer and pesticide applications on one or multiple courses and share information with other users from any Web-enabled device, including PC, Mac, tablet or smart phone. The system also offers free data backup.
 
A conversion service is available for current users of the SPaRKS desktop system,
 
The system allows users to create fertilizer and pesticide budgets, offers cost comparison of alternative products and treatments, tracks purchasing and inventory, calculates major and minor nutrient requirements, generates worksheets for applicators and can be used to generate reports for record-keeping, compliance and green committee meetings.
 
The SPaRKS system also can be used to monitor worker safety information as well as equipment inventory.
