The reports are available in real-time allowing for immediate actions and are easy-to-share enhancing team collaboration.

Maintenance scheduling software for field service teams

Manage your assets with enhanced maintenance planning through zero-touch scheduling. This scheduling process creates automated service events for periodic maintenance based on predefined schedules or contracts.

Fieldcode delivers smart, automated dispatching across every field service environment. Zero-Touch automation assigns jobs by skills, SLAs, and location so your team always knows where to go next.

1. What common dispatch issues can FSM software resolve?

FSM software helps eliminate manual errors, double bookings, and communication gaps between dispatchers and technicians. It centralizes job data, automates scheduling, and provides real-time visibility into field operations.

2. What is the difference between scheduling software and dispatch software?

Scheduling software focuses on planning when work happens, while dispatch software manages who performs it and how jobs are assigned. Fieldcode combines both, automatically scheduling and dispatching technicians in one connected system.

3. How can dispatching software optimize technician routes?

Dispatching software like Fieldcode use route optimization to calculate the fastest and most efficient paths based on distance, traffic, and SLAs. This reduces travel time, lowers costs, and allows technicians to complete more jobs each day.

4. Does Fieldcode’s field service scheduling and dispatching software support maintenance scheduling?

Yes. Fieldcode automatically creates, schedules, and dispatches maintenance jobs based on recurring service intervals or contract terms.

5. How does Fieldcode handle last-minute scheduling changes?

The software in real-time re-optimizes routes, reassigns jobs, and updates ETAs automatically. Technicians and customers are automatically updated when cancellations, delays, or emergency jobs occur.
