Ten numbers that matter, one name on each, and a weekly meeting that fixes the red ones — so all the human energy on your farm pulls one direction.
Your herd software tracks everything. It still can't answer the three questions that decide a farm:
Fifty metrics live in the office PC. The employees who move them never see one.
Meetings without a spine — 90 minutes of talk, zero owners.
Priorities set in January. Dead by March.
Every human being is a procrastinator — you, me, your best barn manager. More data won't fix that. A cadence will. Gilt installs two: a weekly pulse for the numbers, a quarterly pulse for the plan.
Not fifty metrics. The ten that decide your farm, picked with your team, on a 13-week trailing view. Every number has one owner — miss three weeks and it turns into an issue on its own.
Your employees log their numbers from the barn — phone in pocket, under 30 seconds. No office computer, no Sunday spreadsheet.
A timed agenda that spends its minutes solving problems. Every issue leaves as a to-do with an owner and a due date — because deadlines beat good intentions.
Five priorities per quarter, each with an owner and milestones. When one slips, everyone sees it the same week — so January's plan is still alive in March.
Gilt isn't a tracking app with a meeting bolted on. It's a proven operating method — and the app exists to make your crew actually run it.
When every employee watches the same ten numbers and the same five priorities, the human energy on your farm stops leaking into crossed signals and repeated work — and starts compounding.
Not a department. Not a shift. A person. When someone owns the farrowing rate, the farrowing rate gets fixed. Ownership is where performance starts.
The board is open to the whole crew, so a miss can't hide. Problems get said out loud on Monday — not discovered in the books in March. Honest numbers make honest teams.
Nobody rises to a goal set in January. People rise to a number due Monday and a priority due in ninety days. The two pulses turn good intentions into a rhythm the crew can't drift out of.
Thirteen weeks of owned numbers shows you exactly who runs their number and who's drowning in the wrong seat — so you can move people to the work they're built for.
The method isn't new — great operators have run companies on it for decades. Gilt is the first to put it in the barn.
Five minutes. If it's a fit, you'll book the call on the next screen.
Everyone — that's the point. The owner or GM runs the weekly meeting. Managers own numbers on the scorecard. Every employee logs their own numbers from the barn and can raise an issue. If only the office uses it, it's just another report.
No. The meeting is one hour of it. Gilt is the full operating method — owned numbers, 90-day priorities, issues, to-dos, seats, and SOPs — and the weekly meeting is where it all turns into decisions. Take the app away and the method still works. The app makes sure your crew actually runs it.
Keep it — Gilt doesn't replace it. Herd software tells you what happened to the pigs. Gilt decides who does what about it this week. Fifty metrics in, ten owned numbers out, one meeting to fix the reds.
