So what is this intelligent scheduling software solution? If a customer runs a business that requires field service management, the hardest part of the job may be juggling engineers' schedules and routes as the jobs pour in. With powerful algorithms, engineer utilisation, decreased driving time and fuel costs can be maximised, and reduce the burden on the office staff. As an example, a company with a minimum of 400 engineers and up to 1000 engineers or more, needs to plan which people, in which vehicles, go to what locations. This solution makes sure the right engineer is driving to the right place, provides high definition maps, does the route planning, including speed limits and traffic conditions, makes sure the right parts and equipment are on the vehicle, tracks the movement and records the deliveries and updates the stock and billings. Their advanced field service scheduling and appointment / route scheduling / traffic management software can also be effectively bolted on to an existing field service management system. Typical clients could be: Cable TV or security companies Photocopying / air conditioning / machinery engineers Insurance assessors Airline and railway engineers Refuse collection vehicles Drug testers for athletes and animals in sporting events The options are endless ……. They are the market leader in this space and the solution can be bought as part of their complete ERP package, or it can be sold as a pure field service module linked to other ERP solutions or as a pure scheduling module linked to SAP or similar large ERP software. The advantages of working for this company are that they are the software author and owner, they have strong development, marketing and sales teams so you can get involved in all aspects. They have offices all over the world and they encourage people to work in different countries, (California is a popular move for Brits), and they can offer an amazing career opportunity to any Implementation Consultant joining this new team now.
