Industries
Three kinds of business, one way of working
Kavalo works with horse businesses, farms and ranches, and the farriers and vets who work on their animals: operations where the owner also does the work, the phone rings in the middle of it, and people, animals, equipment and weather all have to fit. Pick yours to see what we look at, how a call moves through the system and where an engineer would start.

What they share
Different work, the same problems
A boarding barn, a vegetable farm and a cow-calf ranch look nothing alike. Their weeks break in the same places.
The phone rings during the work
Calls come in while everyone is feeding, picking the morning orders or working cattle. A missed call is a lesson, an order or a half beef that goes to someone else.
The day lives in too many places
The whiteboard in the barn, a spreadsheet of orders, a calving book in a shirt pocket and a group text. Each knows part of the day; nobody sees all of it.
Money follows the work late
Extra feed and blanketing, a case added to a delivery, a beef bill waiting on the hanging weight. They get billed late or not at all, because the work and the invoice live apart.
How we help
Five services, used in the order your operation needs them
Most engagements start with consulting or with an engineer on site. What comes after depends on what they find.

Not sure which one you are?
Plenty of operations are a little of each: a ranch with a riding program, a farm with a few boarders. The free consultation starts with how your week actually runs.
