Manpower is for the morning labor call: which employees have pinged in, which jobs and service calls they are covering, who is already promised somewhere else, and which foreman can spare a person without breaking another crew. The map gives dispatch and operations a county-level view; the schedule, roster, skills, conflicts, and assets tell them what they can safely change.
The dashboard shows the crew spread for the day: who has pinged in, where they are working, how many people are on jobs, how many assignments are exposed, and whether the plan already has conflicts.
The schedule is built around assignments. A planner can assign people or assets to projects, service calls, estimates, or overhead codes, set role, supervisor, start and end time, add notes, then move or copy blocks when the week changes.
Conflicts make overlapping commitments visible by employee, supervisor, date, status, and notes. Operations can filter the list and resolve rows before a technician or foreman is expected in two places at once.
The roster groups workers by supervisor, role, status, current assignment, and contact details. The planner can see who is active, who reports to whom, and which profile needs cleanup before an assignment is trusted.
The skills catalog tracks skills, certifications, and licenses at the org level. That gives the planner a way to check EPA, lift operation, rigging, safety, license, and qualification records before specialized work is staffed.
Place qualified people against real work before the week starts.
Catch labor problems before the field discovers them.
See where people are and maintain the workforce record.
Build the week around real jobs, service work, estimates, and overhead, then move assignments when the field plan changes.
Review overlaps, overloaded supervisors, open conflicts, and spikes before the wrong person gets sent to two places.
Keep roles, supervisors, active status, skills, certifications, licenses, assets, and maintenance records current enough to trust the schedule.
| What You Need | How Build Daily Handles It |
|---|---|
| Who is active today? | Yes Dashboard metrics show active employees, the project and service split, vacation, open conflicts, fleet counts, utilization, the map, and active employee rows. |
| Can the office schedule labor against actual work? | Yes Assignments can be tied to projects, service calls, estimates, overhead work, people, assets, roles, supervisors, start/end times, notes, and status. |
| Can the week be changed without rebuilding it? | Yes Schedule controls support move, bulk move, copy day/week patterns, undo copy, assignment update, and assignment info for additional shifts. |
| Can employees see their own assignments? | Yes My Schedule gives employees an assignment-facing view with week and date navigation. |
| Can double-booking be caught? | Yes Conflict screens show overlapping manpower assignments with status, supervisor/date filters, trend counts, detail modals, and resolve actions. |
| Can supervisors plan by crew instead of a flat list? | Yes Roster groups field personnel under supervisors and shows active counts, roles, status, current job, contact details, and profile actions. |
| Can credentials stay visible to operations? | Yes Skills, certifications, and licenses can be created, edited, filtered, assigned to employees, uploaded, downloaded, and managed from the workforce area. |
| Can company assets be planned with labor? | Yes Assets track status, category, assignment, maintenance programs, maintenance records, files, usage logs, and timelines, shared between service and manpower. |
| Can non-project labor be planned? | Yes Overhead codes let operations plan shop, training, PTO, or office labor without charging it to a job. |
| Can utilization be reviewed later? | Yes Reports summarize active field staff, project work, service work, PTO, open and closed conflicts, and utilization trends. |
Operations checks active people, the project and service split, utilization, open conflicts, the map, and recent pings before changing the plan.
The planner confirms active workers, supervisors, roles, current jobs, skills, certifications, and licenses so assignments are based on current information.
People and assets are assigned to projects, service calls, estimates, or overhead work with role, supervisor, start/end time, notes, and assignment status.
When a job slips, a service emergency lands, or a foreman changes crew coverage, the planner moves, bulk moves, copies, or undoes blocks instead of rebuilding the whole week.
Conflict review catches overlapping assignments and lets the office resolve rows before the wrong person or asset is promised twice.
Reports let operations look back at active field staff, the project and service split, PTO, open and closed conflicts, and utilization trends.
