Plumbing job management software could be the tool that takes your plumbing business to the next level. Workever’s software can help improve the day-to-day running of your business, helping you manage your workflow more efficiently.
What is Plumbing Job Management Software?
Owning a plumbing business in the service industry isn’t as easy. With many competitors to compete with and the general organisation required to run a successful business, being the owner of a plumbing and heating company can be stressful.
Workever’s plumbing job management software has been designed to make the daily tasks involved with running a business much more efficient. Whether that’s keeping on top of the schedules of your field workers, creating quotes for customers, or tracking job statuses.
Key Features of Plumbing Job Management Software
Job Scheduling & Dispatching
Running a service business with multiple workers can make scheduling a nightmare task. Mistakes can lead to incorrectly placed field workers, delays in work and unsatisfied customers, which can have a negative impact on your business’s reputation. With the digital feature available on Workever, job scheduling has never been easier or more efficient. You and your managers will instantly be able to drag and drop jobs into your fieldworkers’ schedules. You won’t have to worry about calling them in their free time to update them on the changes. Instead, your field workers will be notified instantly with real-time updates, meaning they’ll always have a clear understanding of where they’re meant to be and at what time.
Invoicing & Payments
Invoicing and chasing payments can be one of the most tedious tasks for any business, as it takes up valuable time. Whether you need to generate one invoice or a batch of invoices with our software, it only takes a few clicks as it uses the data from the job. It will also automatically send payment notifications to your customers so you’re not manually having to chase money.
Mobile Access for Fieldworkers
The clerical side of the role can be a chore for fieldworkers. With mobile access, this makes their jobs a lot easier. As long as they have a smartphone or a tablet, they’ll be able to access everything that they could only previously access by a laptop or by being in the office. With ease, they can check their schedule, receive details about the next job and send out customer quotes.
Customer Communication & Automated Reminders
Not only will you and your workers benefit from Workevers job management software but your customers will as well. Your customers will receive automatic appointment reminders, ensuring they’re home when your field worker visits. They’ll also receive any updates regarding details of the job and can get quicker access to quotes and invoices.
Job Tracking & Reporting
Having multiple workers can make it a logistical nightmare to track their job status and their location. You may currently have to ring around to establish how they’re getting on, how long they have left on a particular job or their exact location. With this software, you won’t have to worry about doing that again. Instead, you’ll be able to view the exact location of your workers with GPS tracking and read through updates on their job statuses. This can be a great way to improve productivity and help with any emergency appointments.
From owning a plumbing and heating business, you’ll already be aware that many customer appointments can be emergencies, especially in the winter months. With our digital software, you’ll be able to get the closest and most readily available worker out to your customer in rapid time.
Cloud-Based Data Syncing
Plumbers have enough tools and products to transport in their vans without the need to carry extra paperwork. With the cloud-based data syncing, paperwork will be a thing of the past. Instead, your engineers will be able to take photos, record notes and even get customer signatures. This information will automatically be saved and be instantly viewable by your plumbers and office workers, which can speed up and improve communication amongst your team.
