Metro Detroit
It is early on a Monday in July in Metro Detroit. Your dispatcher just texted that they are sick, the weekend calls are stacked up, every tech is in the shop waiting for an address, and you are trying to build the board from the driver's seat.
With outsourced dispatch, someone who does this all day is on your board before the first truck rolls. They sort calls by priority, skill and drive time, send techs their first jobs, confirm arrival windows and move things around when a job runs long.
You get to run the business instead of the board. Techs spend more of the day on jobs and less on the road, people get honest arrival times, and the next sick day is just a normal Monday.

Fix this in Metro DetroitWe study how you dispatch today, your techs' skills, your zones and how you rank calls.
Together we write dispatch rules for priority, memberships, emergencies and who goes where.
Our dispatchers take over the board on the days and hours you choose, working directly in your software.
We look at drive time, late arrivals and unassigned calls with you and tighten the rules.
What we report every month: Calls dispatched same day, Drive time between jobs, On-time arrivals, and Calls rescheduled and why.
Outsourced dispatch puts trained dispatchers on your board from a remote desk. They work in your field software, assign calls, talk to techs and keep customers updated. You keep control of the rules, and they handle the hour-by-hour moves.
Price follows how many techs you run, how many calls you dispatch each day and the hours you need covered. Emergency coverage and phone booking on top of dispatch add to it. Once we understand your board, we set a fixed monthly fee.
A great in-house dispatcher who knows every tech is hard to beat, and just as hard to replace. Outsourced dispatch gives you coverage that does not depend on one person and fills in during sick days, vacations and growth spurts. Many shops use both, with us covering the gaps.
Each platform handles the board differently, from drag-and-drop schedules to capacity planning. Our dispatchers work inside your platform so every change shows up for your techs right away. If your setup has gaps, we point them out and help fix them.
Freeway backups and long county lines can eat a tech's day. Good dispatch groups jobs by area, plans around rush hour and keeps a tech nearby when an emergency is likely. Small routing choices add up to more jobs done by the end of the week.
You know every tech, but you are stuck on the board when you should be selling, hiring or out on a job.
Great when they are there, but sick days, vacations and turnover leave the board uncovered.
Trained dispatchers in your software, on your rules, covering the hours you choose so the board never depends on one person.
