What is field service management?

untranslateduntranslateduntranslateduntranslateduntranslateduntranslated

Field service management is the management of a companyโ€™s resources using tools to manage things like scheduling, work orders, analytics, reporting and customer expectations. These tools use software or cloud-based platforms that are integrated from end-to-end to improve efficiency and optimise workflow management.

How does field service management work?

untranslated

Field service management is applied through software applications integrated with backend systems. It can help you by automating various aspects of your business, including but not limited to scheduling, dispatching work, installations, billing, accounting, service or repairs. For example, it allows you to track all the stages of a work order lifecycle with real-time insights.

Some software also allows you to manage your workflow remotely with mobile applications. You can be away from the office and still have visibility over critical information such as customer history and process checklists.

Some provide dynamic order dispatch and management that enables you to identify which driver is best suited to complete a job based on smart scheduling and dispatch, order status and vehicle status. This allows you to optimise order management workflow and complete more orders. Further, with professional navigation, you can get more jobs done on time.

And field service management software automates your workflow management process and takes care of the reporting for you. By automating your workflow, you can be more efficient and time-efยญfective by reducing distractions and time-ยญconยญsuming manual tasks. For example, some systems make compliance, easier. Some field service management features automatically records the vehicle odometer and working time registration for you in real-time, which supports more accurate reporting and lessens the adminยญisยญtrative burden.
