Field Service Routing Software
As a professional in the field services industry, you are able to manipulate the properties of your customers by changing them from an open project outside or inside a home or business, to a beautiful and functional place to live or work.
Creating the most time-efficient routes to get from job-to-job on a given day, is often not a part of the job that field service professionals are particularly passionate about.
That’s why JobCloser has included route optimization as a feature for all of our app users.
Route Optimization Software
Say your business provides plumbing services in the Orlando, Florida area. You’ve got two teams of employees that go out five days a week to service clients. Each team needs to service multiple clients every day in order to meet the demand that your customers have.
When you account for traffic, an hour break for lunch, equipment malfunctions, etc. your company is going to be on a time crunch to get these jobs done.
JobCloser’s route optimization software solves this problem by using Google maps to order your team’s jobs in the most time-effective way. All you have to do is input the addresses of your jobs and follow the directions given in the JobCloser app.
JobCloser’s route optimization software saves valuable time for your company that would otherwise be wasted. With the JobCloser app, you can continue to offer the best services possible in a timely manner.
