Challenge
- Fragmented planning across spreadsheets and chats - Crew dispatching, vehicle allocation, and job coordination were managed through multiple Excel sheets and disconnected communication sources. Each dispatcher or manager maintained their own version of schedules, which quickly became outdated as changes occurred throughout the day;
- Manual dispatching with no real visibility - Daily dispatching relied heavily on manual coordination and individual experience rather than a structured system. Managers had no single view of active crews, vehicle locations, or order progress across different sites. It was difficult to track who was already assigned, who was available, and which teams were nearing capacity;
- Complex reporting requirements from operators - Staff had to submit detailed reports for completed work, often using operator-specific job codes and classification systems, but internal naming and categorization did not match these external standards. Each report required manual reconciliation — managers had to interpret completed work and match it to the correct operator codes;
- No clear tracking of equipment and availability - Vehicles, tools, and field equipment were constantly moving between sites, but there was no centralized way to track their status or location. Information about whether an asset was in use, reserved, or available was often based on assumptions or outdated notes. Dispatchers sometimes assigned equipment that was already in use or unavailable, forcing last-minute changes and delays..
