- Scheduling and Dispatch: Schedulers can easily assign and dispatch the technician with the right skills that is closest to the job in just a few clicks. In addition, schedulers can optimize the service for items such as w******* replacements, preventative maintenance, repair services, and installation by creating work orders from NetSuite cases, sales orders, projects, and customer assets.
- Field Productivity: Field technicians can access real-time information on job details and customer and asset history via a mobile app on their preferred device, eliminating time wasted with calls back to the office for missing information. To further increase productivity and simplify b******, expenses related to each job are automatically recorded.
- Asset Management: Organizations can centralize the management of all customer assets and gain full visibility into asset hierarchy, history usage, and maintenance. This enables each asset to be monitored from installation and commissioning to decommissioning or sale and asset costs to be tracked and managed at every stage, including manufacturing, bill of materials (BOM), and warranties. As a result, organizations can conduct timely preventative maintenance and ensure service is aligned with w******* schedules.
- Inventory Management: Organizations can automate the entire inventory management lifecycle to accurately track truck inventory and ensure maintenance tool kits are fully stocked and all parts and equipment are available to meet customer service requirements. This increases first time-fix rates, reduces secondary truck rolls due to lack of inventory, and improves inventory leakage rates by eliminating write-offs due to lost or missing components. In addition, a direct integration with NetSuite Inventory Management helps organizations further improves inventory management by enabling field service technicians to access and update inventory data in real time via a mobile app.
- Operational Insights: Organizations can consolidate field service data within one system and leverage a dashboard of key performance indicators to measure business performance related to every job, customer, service contract, and technician. This helps organizations improve decision making, uncover inventory leakage, track customer service improvements, and increase profitability.
