KBN Enterprises quickly became the go-to choice for water treatment solutions, whether for purification systems or maintenance. This brought in a large number of customers across various regions. And that meant their existing way of managing workflows no longer worked.
With double the services and triple the customers, KBN Enterprises struggled to keep up with the workload manually. This led to issues like forgotten service contract renewals or missed CMC services. Also, without a centralized view, they had to track assets using fragmented tools, which often resulted in improper tracking of asset health.
The Pan-India water treatment solutions provider, KBN Enterprises, wanted a smart digital platform to achieve the following operational goals:
- Complete view of all customers, including past and upcoming services, payment history, etc.
- Centralized information of all assets, including health, services, and location
- Simplified management of service contracts, renewals, and expirations
- Faster scheduling of services and efficient technician dispatching
- Easy creation of quotes and invoices with customizable templates
- Increased visibility of technicians’ live activity status
- One-click checklists, parts assignment, and instant job report generation
Challenges Faced by KBN Enterprises
With an increased customer base, services, and operations, KBN Enterprises faced several challenges that hindered revenue and workflow efficiency.
Poor Technician Tracking
Whether it was scheduling services or knowing the status of a job, the management had to manually call or text technicians to understand their current status and whereabouts, often leading to unnecessary delays, extra effort, and operational burden. Also, without a proper system in place, attendance was not always marked efficiently.
Due to the lack of clear, real-time location, activity status, and availability of technicians, managers were forced to schedule and dispatch based on guesswork. This resulted in overlapping job bookings, assigning the wrong technician to the wrong location, and miscommunication that directly impacted service quality as well as payroll accuracy.
Solutions Provided
As soon as Fieldy was implemented into the workflow of KBN Enterprises, their operations became significantly smoother and more streamlined. Here are some of the key solutions Fieldy provided:
Tracking Technicians on Every Activity
Every technician in the field can now be tracked in real time using Fieldy’s GPS-powered FSM software. It enables managers at KBN to monitor who is where, what they are doing, the distance traveled, time spent on tasks, working hours, and more. Every movement and activity is tracked and accounted for, improving overall productivity.
With just a simple click, managers can view a technician’s live location and activity status, eliminating the need for manual calls, texts, or guesswork. This also allows the business to schedule and dispatch jobs based on technician skill set, availability, and proximity to the job location.
