Job scheduling software is not a novel idea. The tech has been around for quite some time and the basic principle behind it has to do with clearly identifying the day, time, and location of an employee in regards to their tasks.
The needs of modern field service management businesses go far beyond this basic idea. Nowadays, service scheduling software needs to account for a number of variable factors prior to generating the schedule for the day. Here is a brief list of those factors:
When researching for a scheduling solution, you’re no longer looking for a platform that syncs your tasks to Google calendar. You need a solution that is going to alert you about changes, advise you about the course of action you should take, and help you save time, and valuable administration time.
Field engineer scheduling software allows businesses to plan, organise and manage the timetable and workload of their engineering workforce in order to ensure engineers complete jobs as best and as punctual as they can.
The software efficiently automates and optimises scheduling processes, allowing businesses to meet KPIs, address first-time fixes, stick to maintenance schedules, and avoid misunderstandings like a double booking.
The goal of a modern solution is to create transparency between management and team members, reduce admin costs and increase the capacity of the field workforce. By digitising the work schedule, operations managers have complete control over the workflow. With detailed information about the nearest available engineer, customers and tasks, they can allocate resources in real-time, making more efficient use of field engineers’ skill sets.
The real value of the solution comes from the fact that it can help with decision-making. It can help managers make the best decision based on business objectives and tie it to what’s unfolding in real-time during the day.
What’s more, it helps companies move into a completely paperless environment, where all job information about employees, clients, and productivity is centralised. No more folders, paper invoices, post-it notes, and unnecessary phone calls. By drastically reducing the probability of human error, you’re instantly increasing the ability to schedule work with accuracy and precision.
Last but not least, field engineer scheduling software creates transparency and visibility as to what’s going on throughout the day. Managers and engineers can access all the information at all times, ensuring they are on the same page.
