Snowplowing routing
We are having trouble with the way that we currently have to schedule our teams for dispatching when it come time to our snow plowing events. With Jobber currently not having a way for the management team to efficiently dispatch a large number of clients to each team member at a short notice interval. We currently have to set a job as a repeating job but leave it unscheduled. This leads to the problem of not having the option of selecting a team member/ members. Being in a area of heavy snow and storms that require at time 2-3 dispatches we currently have not found a way to notify our drivers through jobber quickly. We are currently looking at other programs to accomplish this task like Folosoft. But am wondering if anyone has had a successful way of doing this. Our thoughts for Jobber would be to have a dispatch via the team member and or a group. Example customers on Truck #1 route is saved as Route #1 and can be scheduled to the date of service needed in the order that is pre-set. Then all you need to do is assign the team member to the route and good to go. Example #2 would be Tagging all customer under the route you want and then mass schedule them using the tagged word. Ultimately we would like to dispatch as quick as possible and have the route for the drivers to take be preset. Then all they would need to do is capture a finished photo and hit complete. This would also help us track completion rate as our team members go.25Views1like2Comments
