It can be tough sometimes for businesses that use field service technicians to find qualified employees. That’s because it takes specialized skills to be an electrician, plumber, glass installers, and general contractor.Once you’ve attracted qualified talent to grow the business, it’s important to have the tools and resources needed to help them thrive, improve the customer’s experience, and allow the business to prosper.
The right workflow management software can transform the way field service technicians work and enhance the customer’s experience.
Human Resources for Field Service Businesses
Human resources and field service industries are changing as quickly as the technology that powers them. In the not-so-distant past, remote employees would need to call into the office and check to see where their next job was, ask for addresses, find out inventory levels, and process payments.Today’s enterprise resource management solutions are powered by the cloud (remote servers that are connected to the Internet). That means no more paperwork, spreadsheets, or emails. All of the necessary data is stored on servers in the cloud, easily accessible from any mobile device. Field service technicians can access diagnostic tools, manuals, and schematics. They can also schedule appointments, create estimates and work orders, monitor inventory levels, and take payments. It’s also imperative that small- and medium-sized businesses manage their mobile workers effectively. The right workflow management platform can make life a lot easier for those managing daily processes and activities back in the office. With a cloud-based workflow management solution like Taskflow Pro, human resource departments can manage their HR procedures more efficient. This includes:
