Keep crews moving when worksites and assignments change.
Schedule crew leads, technicians, drivers, and on-call coverage across routes and sites, so field staff know where to go and dispatch can see the gaps.
The field operations demo opens in Builder without signup. Pro keeps dispatch and crews aligned when worksites change.
The schedule loses value when the worksite changes.
Work happens away from one location
Crews may work across routes, sites, and changing assignments throughout the week.
Roles must stay clear
Crew leads, technicians, drivers, and on-call support need different coverage.
The field needs the current plan
Updates can become fragmented between office staff and people working in the field.
Give dispatch and field crews the same current plan.
Plan routes, sites, and crew coverage
Build weekly shifts around routes, worksites, crew roles, and unassigned coverage.
Keep the field oriented
Give staff a current mobile view of where to go and when to be there.
Connect office and field updates
Use Pro for live changes, confirmations, reminders, open shifts, and team messages.
See routes, crews, and open assignments side by side.
Compare route coverage, crew assignments, and open work side by side so dispatch can see who is going where before the day moves.
Build the route and crew schedule.
Build crew shifts by route, worksite, and position, then print or publish the plan for the field. Drafts stay in this browser.
Push changes from dispatch to the field.
Give crews mobile access and connect dispatch changes with live updates, confirmations, reminders, open shifts, notifications, and messages.
Field operations scheduling questions
What is field crew scheduling software?
Field crew scheduling software organizes who is working, when they are working, and which route, worksite, or crew role they are covering. It keeps the workforce schedule visible without trying to manage the entire service-job lifecycle.
Can I schedule crews across several work locations?
Yes. ShiftDispatch can organize crews across worksites, positions, and shift times.
Can field staff review schedule changes on mobile?
Pro gives staff a mobile schedule and supports notifications, confirmations, open shifts, reminders, and messaging.
How does ShiftDispatch handle open and on-call field shifts?
Managers can leave a shift unassigned so open coverage remains visible. With Pro, eligible staff can review and claim open shifts when claiming is enabled.
What is the difference between Builder and Pro for field teams?
Builder creates, prints, and shares the crew schedule from the browser. Pro adds cloud storage, staff mobile access, live schedule updates, confirmations, reminders, open shifts, notifications, and messaging.
Is ShiftDispatch a field-service management platform?
No. ShiftDispatch does not currently provide work orders, route optimization, customer records, inventory, or fleet tracking.
