How does the CRM handle the transition from routine scheduling to storm emergency response?+
The system has an emergency mode that can be activated when a storm event occurs. In emergency mode, non-urgent scheduled jobs are suspended and clients are notified of the delay. Emergency calls are captured and triaged based on urgency — a tree on a house takes priority over a fallen limb blocking a driveway. Available crews are dispatched to the highest-priority calls with GPS-based routing. The system maintains the emergency queue and provides automated updates to clients waiting for service. When the emergency period ends, the system rebuilds the regular schedule, incorporating delayed jobs into the makeup calendar.
Can the system track job profitability including equipment and subcontractor costs?+
Yes. Each job can track labor hours by crew member, equipment usage hours with associated cost rates, material costs, disposal fees, permit costs, and subcontractor charges like crane rental. The system compares total costs against the invoiced amount to calculate actual job margin. Over time, this data reveals which job types are most and least profitable, which cost categories are consistently underestimated, and which crews are most efficient. This intelligence directly improves your pricing accuracy and helps you focus on the most profitable work types.
