Case study 01 · Service Based Business

A clear plan for the day. Room for the day to change.

For a Service Based Business, Codino built scheduling around the decisions the office actually makes: who should go, what comes first, what is ready, and what the technician needs to know.

Recognize the problem?

You have multiple technicians and changing priorities. Keeping everyone pointed at the right work takes too much of one person’s day.

The team described an end-of-day routine involving three people, a whiteboard, and an emailed photograph sent to field technicians. The new workflow brings the plan together with service requests, jobs, technician availability, and field instructions.

How the work moves now

  1. 01

    See the work and the constraints

    Bring technician availability, on-call coverage, work ready to dispatch, material readiness, and same-site work into the scheduling view.

  2. 02

    Set priorities that survive a change

    Assign work by person and day. Reorder the day or move an assignment when something changes. Add a promised time window only when the work needs one.

  3. 03

    Carry the office’s intent into the field

    Keep the priority, assigned task, material pickup, and office instructions with the assignment so the technician can see what the office intended.

Keep judgment
with the right person.

  • The office owns the priority order.
  • Material and nearby-work signals support a dispatch decision.
  • Time windows are optional; conflict notices still need a person’s judgment.

Business impact

What is worth measuring

The workflow is documented. Quantified before-and-after results are still being validated; these are measures to establish, not promised savings.

Minutes spent coordinating each day

Compare active scheduling and follow-up time for days with similar assignment volume.

Time from request to dispatch

Measure the median and slower end of the same service-request cohort.

Avoidable return visits

Review why another visit was needed; separate missing parts or instructions from planned multi-visit work.

This is a workflow implementation, not a promise of automatic route optimization. The public demo uses fictional records and illustrates a small part of the workflow.

The useful change is a plan the office can adjust and the field can understand.

Start with the handoff that costs your business the most attention. We can work out whether a focused change would be worth doing.
