We already use a job group chat. Why change it?
Keep the chat for conversation. The problem is using it as the record — you cannot search it, sort it, or hand it to someone new. A tracker holds the state; the chat holds the talking.
Contractors & Field Service
Operations Systems for Contractors and Field Service Companies
Crews in the field, quotes on the phone, invoices at midnight. Field service breaks in predictable places, and every one of them is a documentation problem before it is a people problem.
Diagnosis
Sound familiar?
- Job status lives in a crew group chat and nobody can reconstruct it later
- Quotes are given verbally on site and never written down the same way twice
- Change orders get agreed in the driveway and lost before invoicing
- A new crew lead needs the owner on the phone for their first two weeks
- Invoices go out late because nobody knows which jobs actually closed
Scope
What we build for this sector
Delivered as branded Sheets, Docs and Notion pages in your own workspace.
- Job tracker: every active site with stage, crew, next action and due date
- Quote-to-invoice SOP so nothing agreed on site dies before it is billed
- Intake form that captures scope, access, materials and timing up front
- Change-order procedure with a written trigger and an approval step
- Weekly snapshot: jobs running, jobs blocked, money outstanding
FAQ
Contractors & Field Service: common questions
Will my crews actually use a system?
They will use one that takes less effort than what they do now. That usually means a form on a phone, not a login. If a tool adds a step for the field, it is the wrong tool.
What does this cost for a small contracting business?
The $197 Full Ops Audit tells you what to fix and in what order. The $597 Operations Starter Pack bundles the audit with three SOPs and a job tracker. Both are fixed price.
