Solutions: HVAC, Plumbing and Electric

For HVAC, plumbing and electrical contractors two of the biggest challenges in managing field service operations are:

  1. Increasing the number of jobs completed per day per technician; and
  2. Meeting promised appointment time windows.

More jobs completed per day means higher revenues. Meeting appointment times increases customer satisfaction levels and the probability of repeat business.

In most companies the dispatcher performs the scheduling and routing of field technicians. In other words, your company's success is highly dependent on a resource that could get sick, go on vacation, quit or make a mistake when the volume of work is high and the pressure is on. Key objectives, such as minimizing travel time, are accomplished by an inaccurate manual process or by guesswork. This approach is not scalable and results in a dispatcher-to-technician ratio of about 1:7.
