Easily Track Schedules, Resources and Work Progress.
It's tough keeping track of where your field resources are going each workday. Yet you need this information at your fingertips in order to keep yourself a step ahead of the competition, run your business efficiently and keep your customers happy. Visual Control Room gives you this competitive edge two ways.

Color-coded Work Progress Bars.
First, color-coded work progress bars are generated to reflect the schedule for each field resource on each workday. You'll understand which resources are busy during different times of the day. Unique colors identify when your resources are busy doing work, driving to a new location or on break. In short, you'll know in a glance the status and availability of your entire field resource crew.

Interfaces with GPS – Vehicle Tracking.
If you need to know where your vehicles / drivers are at all times, the Visual Job and Resource Tracking capabilities can directly interface with our QuickGPS system or vehicle tracking devices. This allows you to "see" exactly where your vehicles and drivers are located – real time. No more guessing who's where. You can also send or receive real time messages relating to work-in-progress and job status updates.

Color Computer Maps.
Second, each work location and the order of stops to those locations and clearly pinned on a color map. This gives you the details of where each field resource is located at any time during the day. As your people call in when an assignment is completed, Visual Control Room updates their location and change symbols on the map and work progress bar so you can keep track of the day's progress. You'll know in advance if a delay at one work location will cause a conflict arriving at the next. And you'll be able to see which field resource has time to take on more work. Then rearranging any work schedule is a breeze with Windows® point-and-click technology.

Management Tools for Better Decision Making.
Visual Control Room can help you tune your business to peak operating performance by storing the history of daily work and the time each work function takes. You can then generate the reports that answer key management questions. For example, you can determine which of your products and services are profitable and which are not. Or, understand which field resource is best suited for each type of work. You'll find more time in each workday to accommodate more work without the added expenses of extra help or other costly resources.
