HVAC and mechanical contractors

Service calls, maintenance agreements, and new construction under one roof. We connect dispatch, inventory, and project accounting so service, maintenance, and project work each have their own numbers.

How the work runs

Two businesses sharing one set of technicians

Service and maintenance run on dispatch, truck stock, and fast turnaround. Project work runs on schedules, submittals, and progress billing. The same people, parts, and systems usually serve both.

Systems we often see

  • Field service (ServiceTitan, FieldEdge)
  • Inventory and truck stock
  • ERP modules
  • Project accounting

Where the work gets stuck

  • 01

    Service and project cost blur

    Separating the two is hard when field and accounting systems don't connect.

  • 02

    Dispatch under pressure

    Balancing emergency calls, scheduled maintenance, and project work across technicians.

  • 03

    Truck stock and the warehouse

    Material spread across trucks, shelves, and job sites, with little tracking of what was used.

  • 04

    Call details for billing

    Parts used and time per task need capturing before the invoice and the customer update go out.

One handoff, step by step

Fig. 03 · One handoffIllustrative example

What does the next technician need before arriving?

  1. Step 1, Previous technician, in Field service app: Records what was found, what was fixed, and what was deferred.
  2. Step 2, Dispatcher, in Field service app: Assigns the call with the unit's service history attached.
  3. Step 3, Warehouse, in Inventory and truck stock: Confirms the likely parts are on the truck. Re-keyed by hand from the previous system. Then a check: Likely parts on the truck? If not, the dispatcher moves the visit.
  4. Step 4, Technician, in Field service app: Arrives with the agreement terms and site access details.
  5. Ends with: Visit completed.
When the last visit's notes stay in one person's head, the second visit repeats the first.

A typical sequence to show the kind of handoff we map. Not a client finding.
