Field Service Management

Many businesses manage a variety of vehicles, equipment, and employees simultaneously, all requiring undivided attention. Field service management enables fleet managers to efficiently balance such dynamic demands and allocate resources accordingly, ultimately improving business productivity to save both time and money.

Cloud-based software platforms are commonly used for streamlining these tasks, offering comprehensive integration to enhance efficiency and optimise workflow.

How does field service management work?

Field service management uses software applications to automate various business operations, including scheduling, dispatching, installations, billing, and maintenance. This automation allows managers to monitor every stage of a work order lifecycle with real-time, data-driven insights.

Many of these software solutions comprise mobile applications, enabling field operators and staff to manage workflows remotely. Employees can input information directly from the field, providing fleet managers with detailed time and location data from GPS tracking devices. This information ranges from basic start and finish times to more complex data such as signature captures and engine performance metrics.

Consequently, managers can access vital information, encompassing customer history and process checklists, from anywhere, ensuring seamless operations even when they are away from the office.
