The efficient allocation and distribution of human resource are critical for the success of a Field Service company. If you have skilled employees but you are unaware about their availability, their dispatch is not according to the required job description, and their location during the work order is not considered, then you are not using your Human resource to its full potential.
Problem
Assume that your company manages to land simultaneously work orders from two different companies which were filed in separate branches and regions. Allocating the right people for the appropriate task is going to be a challenge in this case. If you don't assign technicians with relevant skills set to the suited job then they will not be able to perform well. The solution to this is to deploy an intelligent and automated tool for scheduling and planning. This will allow you to easily view the comprehensive report about the availability of service technicians, their current geographical location, and their specific expertise. By using such a tool you can easily create and allocate tasks for the technicians and they will be automatically notified about their duties for getting the job done. This would allow you to minimize your expenses while maximizing your performance and generating more revenue. Having a smart planning software tool will allow you to be better equipped for unexpected circumstances and unpredictable work orders.
