Problem
Scrap recycling operations typically rely on disconnected tools and manual processes for ticketing, inventory tracking, pricing, compliance reporting, and financial reconciliation. This fragmentation forces information to flow through paper-based handoffs, creates audit risks, and slows decision-making for operators managing one yard or dozens across multiple regions.
Solution
ReSpark provides a connected software platform that consolidates the entire scrap yard operation—from scale ticketing and inventory management to pricing, purchasing, compliance, and brokerage—into one system. Frontline workflows are optimized for speed, enabling tickets to be completed in seconds with weights, grades, deductions, signatures, photos, and ID scans captured on site. The platform is built with an AI-ready architecture, allowing teams to automate repetitive tasks when ready. ReSpark also offers a supplier portal for digital customer interactions and an operator mobile app for ticketing and inventory lookups from any device. Cloud-native financial reporting, payment processing, and settlement workflows connect operational data to the balance sheet without manual handoffs.
Target Audience
Primary customers are scrap recycling yards, multi-facility recyclers, and enterprise metal processors, ranging from single-yard operators to global steel producers, along with mills, traders, and brokers needing integrated trade logistics and financial workflows.
