Planning
Your company...
Managing schedules for service companies, especially those coordinating field staff, is a real logistical ordeal. Many companies still rely on standard tools such as Excel, Outlook or other non-specialized systems to organize their business. While these tools may seem sufficient at first, their limitations quickly become apparent as needs become more complex.
Lack of centralization and real-time updating
With Excel or Outlook, each employee often uses his or her own version of the schedule, leading to synchronization and duplication problems. The slightest change is a source of errors: a missed appointment, an unscheduled intervention or a forgotten customer.
Unnecessarily high expenditure of time
The manual management of a schedule involves constant monitoring of working hours, availability and locations, as well as the supplies and tools needed to solve the problem. This operational burden mobilizes your teams for administrative tasks, at the expense of their efficiency in the field.
Difficulty optimizing rounds and responding to unforeseen events
Conventional tools don't offer intelligent features to optimize routes or redistribute tasks in the event of unforeseen circumstances. This leads to wasted time and increased travel costs.
Little or no analytical monitoring
Finally, these tools don't allow for in-depth analysis of your performance: occupancy rate, breakdown of interventions, customer follow-up, etc. These data are essential for effective management of your business.
