How PlanSolve's Field Service Model Optimizes Your Operations
Field service businesses face unique challenges: managing mobile teams, optimizing routes, meeting customer expectations, and maintaining profitability. Our opinionated field service model is designed to address these challenges head-on.
The Field Service Challenge
Field service operations are inherently complex. Every day, you need to:
- Assign the right technician to each job
- Optimize routes to minimize travel time
- Ensure SLA compliance
- Handle last-minute changes and emergencies
- Balance workload across your team
Traditional approaches often rely on manual planning or generic optimization tools that don't understand the nuances of field service operations.

Our model considers multiple factors when optimizing routes:
- Real-time traffic data to avoid congestion
- Technician locations and current assignments
- Job priorities and SLA requirements
- Customer preferences and time windows
- Equipment and parts availability
Smart Technician Matching
The model automatically matches technicians to jobs based on:
- Skills and certifications required for each job
- Experience level and performance history
- Current workload and availability
- Geographic proximity to job locations

- Reassign jobs to available technicians
- Update routes in real-time
- Notify customers of schedule changes
