Powerful Operations Tools All-In-One Place DESIGNED FOR THE FIELD, FOR YOUR TEAM Ditch the messy calendar. Assign jobs to your technicians simply by dragging an event to their row. It’s that easy. ESTIMATES AND QUOTING By customizing a simple template, you can show your client the cost of a project, obtain approval with an e-signature, and follow up automatically with clients who don’t sign off on a project right away. JOB AND WORK ORDER MANAGEMENT Job management is hard when you operate multiple crews on multiple jobs. FieldBin makes it easy by creating a shared calendar that can show you when and where each new project is taking place. Create client-facing job checklists to show proof of work. Team members access all pertinent job photos, emails, and docs. Generate custom forms for each project stage. Stay better organized when juggling multiple jobs. INVOICING AND FOLLOW-UPS Get paid faster without even asking. Our invoicing software sends the bill straight to the client and gives them the ability to pay online with a credit card. It will automatically send friendly reminders if they forget to pay. DISPATCHING AND SCHEDULING Instantly build a calendar that you and your team can access from any device. Simply drag and drop your technicians to any job (not literally!) Dispatching and Scheduling software keeps your clients happy, sends you and your people to the right place at the right time, and makes sure everyone is on the same page. INVENTORY TRACKING TOOLS Waiting on parts causes delays that lose you money. FieldBin makes inventory management a breeze. Technicians enter parts they used on a job, automatically updating stock totals across your entire organization.
