FieldBin Boosts FMS with Key New Features

FieldBin introduces new features to its application including improved data support capabilities to speed turnaround and implementation time, a new price book to generate fast, accurate job estimates and enhanced, expanded reporting capabilities.

“With costs rapidly rising and many economists predicting a recession in the New Year, field service businesses – including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, and other trade companies – will need to use technology in new, innovative ways in order to be responsive to rising consumer demands for competitive prices, accurate job estimates, and exact scheduling,” says FieldBin president and co-founder Garrett Wilson.

Features include:

• FieldBin’s new price book will contain robust capabilities for calculating precise, on-site estimates and tax rates by zip code, as well as options for flat-rate pricing and invoice generation.
• Improved data support will enable FieldBin’s FSM software “to collect data from the field, analyze and remedy on-the-job issues, and improve service quality and customer satisfaction,” according to Wilson.
• Newly enhanced and expanded reporting will offer deeper insights into job profitability, tracking costs and financial efficiencies.   
• FieldBin’s software “will also help field service companies to deal with worker shortages by enabling them to efficiently schedule, dispatch, and assign jobs based on their size, scope and worker availability,” Wilson explains.
• Calendars that cross-reference team assignments to easily move workers from one job to another, for example, can be constructed so there is no wasted time, while task management can set reminders, prioritize stops, track time and manage workloads.
