Who is in the building at 17:30?

The staff app knows. On the desk tablet or a coach's phone it shows everyone checked in, the class running in each room, who is due next and which members need a word about a payment or a health flag. If the fire alarm goes, the list of who is inside is one tap away.

What happened here at 17:30 at Ferrous Yard?

The staff app knows. At peak the desk tablet shows everyone checked in, the class running in each room, who is due next and whose payment needs a word. A coach taps a name to see a PAR-Q flag before a spotting drill. If the fire alarm goes, the list of who is inside is one tap away.

  • 17:30:00Peak: floor and class room both in use
  • 17:31:22Coach opened a member's health flag
  • 17:32:05Who is inside, ready for a fire roll call

Ferrous Yard is a gym we made up for this page: a strength and conditioning gym in a unit on an industrial estate, with one class room, a free-weights floor, a front desk, two coaches and an owner who would rather be coaching. No real gym is meant.

What is on the staff app at peak?

  • Everyone checked in now, and when they arrived.
  • Each room's class, its coach and how many are in.
  • Who is booked into the next classes.
  • Members with a payment problem or an unsigned waiver.
  • Health flags, for coaches only.

How does it help when the fire alarm goes?

The roll call is today's check-in register, less anyone who has checked out. A coach opens it on a phone at the assembly point and ticks names off, so nobody has to remember who was on the floor.

Who can do what in the staff app?

The owner decides. Desk staff check people in, sell passes and book classes for members. Coaches see their classes, their clients and health flags. Managers see the money. Each person signs in with a link sent to their own email address, so someone who leaves loses access the moment they are removed.

Which devices does it run on?

It runs in the browser on the desk tablet, a phone or a laptop, and can be saved to the home screen like an app. The same check-ins come from the door at 05:45.

Which parts of the suite are at work in the floor?

What else do gym owners ask about the floor?

Can a coach sell a pass on the floor?

Yes. A coach can sell a class pass or a PT pack from the staff app, and the member pays by card on their own phone.

Does every member of staff need their own sign-in?

Yes. Each person signs in as themselves, so the gym can see who checked someone in or gave a refund.
