The Challenge

The utility provider managed thousands of service appointments monthly with limited dispatcher visibility into technician skills, inventory readiness, and regional traffic conditions.

Manual scheduling caused frequent reassignments, missed SLAs, and unnecessary travel. Field leaders lacked real-time insights into crew utilization and on-site completion risk.

Our Approach

1

Discovery & Design

Mapped field workflows from work-order intake through technician closure to identify scheduling bottlenecks and SLA risk patterns.

2

Platform Configuration

Configured Salesforce Field Service scheduling policies with skills, territories, travel windows, and dynamic prioritization rules.

3

Automation Build

Implemented dispatcher console improvements and mobile workflows for checklists, parts updates, and live status capture.

4

Governance & Operations

Automated exception handling for no-access visits, part shortages, and urgent incidents with governed escalation routes.

5

Adoption & Optimization

Launched operations dashboards tracking utilization, route efficiency, SLA adherence, and first-time fix quality.

The Results

Dispatchers now make assignment decisions using live context, while technicians complete more jobs per day with fewer return visits.

Operations leaders gained clear insight into crew capacity planning and performance quality by region and service type.

  • 28% increase in first-time fix rate across high-volume service categories
  • 24% reduction in technician travel time from route optimization
  • 31% reduction in SLA breaches over two quarters
  • 19% increase in completed work orders per technician per week
  • Customer service CSAT improved by 14 points post rollout

“Field Service gave us control over schedules and outcomes. We now run dispatch with precision instead of guesswork.”
