Permit season runs on a spreadsheet
Seasonal allocation across leagues and clubs is negotiated in meetings and recorded in a workbook only one person fully understands.
For cities, counties, and districts
You are measured on cost recovery. Here is the system that produces it.
Aquatic centers, recreation centers, sports complexes, and civic venues - allocated precisely, priced consistently, billed automatically, and reported honestly.
What usually goes wrong
Every one of these is a systems problem wearing a staffing problem’s clothes.
Cost recovery targets, no cost data
You are measured on a recovery percentage, but nobody can say what an hour in the natatorium actually costs to operate.
Open hours nobody knows about
The building sits empty at ten on a Tuesday because the groups who would pay for that hour have no way to see it is available.
Every change is a phone tree
One closure for maintenance means somebody personally calls six organizations, and one of them still shows up.
What changes
Allocation down to the lane
Pools by lane, fields by sub-section, gyms by half-court, courts individually. Recurring seasonal blocks with the one-off exceptions that actually happen, and conflict detection that shows what a change would displace before you commit.
See schedulingOpen hours that sell themselves
Publish a branded, no-login schedule or embed it in your city site. Outside groups register, see what is open, and request it without a call to your front desk.
See how rentals workRecovery you can evidence
Overhead allocation spreads staffing and operating cost across the groups sharing each hour, and utilization reporting ranks your emptiest hours so you know what to sell next.
See the reportingChanges that notify themselves
A weather closure or a maintenance window clears the affected blocks and notifies every group involved by email and in-app, with a record of who was told what.

We have run these buildings, not just built software for them
Metro-Tec also operates a consulting practice covering financial and operational audits, business planning, and cost-recovery strategy for aquatic, recreation, and civic-use facilities. Some operators come to us for the platform, some for the plan, and a number for both.

Tiers start at a single facility and scale to city-wide operations. Self-service trial available - no procurement cycle required to evaluate.
