How This Automation Works
Service Request Created → Technician Dispatched and Customer Notified
Service Request Intake
When a drinking water system service request arrives via web form, phone call log, or monitoring system alert, all details are automatically captured including facility location, system type, issue description, urgency level, and required certifications.
Technician Assignment
The system evaluates all available technicians against the request requirements, considering current location via GPS, certification levels, expertise with specific equipment types, and existing schedule commitments to identify the optimal responder.
Schedule Coordination
The selected technician's calendar is automatically updated with the new service appointment, including travel time calculations, and any conflicting lower-priority appointments are rescheduled or reassigned to maintain response time commitments.
Work Order Creation
A complete work order is generated containing facility information, equipment specifications, maintenance history, required parts from inventory, safety protocols, and compliance documentation requirements, then sent to the technician's mobile device.
Customer Notification
Automated notifications are sent to facility managers and responsible parties via email and SMS, confirming the scheduled service time, technician details, estimated duration, and any preparation requirements, with real-time updates as the technician travels to the site.
Completion Documentation
Upon service completion, the technician submits their report through the mobile interface, which automatically updates the facility's maintenance records, triggers any necessary follow-up appointments, updates compliance tracking, and sends completion summaries to all stakeholders.
How It Works
Water treatment facilities managing drinking water systems face critical scheduling challenges that impact public health and regulatory compliance. This automation solution transforms how service teams coordinate maintenance visits, emergency responses, and routine inspections across multiple sites. By connecting your service management system with dispatch tools and customer communication channels, you eliminate the manual bottlenecks that cause delayed responses and missed maintenance windows. The system automatically routes urgent water quality issues to available technicians based on location, expertise, and current workload while sending real-time updates to facility managers. This ensures continuous compliance with Safe Drinking Water Act requirements and maintains optimal system performance without overwhelming your administrative staff.
The Trigger
When a new drinking water system service request is submitted—whether for routine maintenance, emergency repairs, or compliance inspections—the system immediately captures all relevant details including location, urgency level, required expertise, and customer contact information to initiate the scheduling process.
The Action
The system automatically assigns the most qualified available technician based on proximity, certification level, and current schedule, creates the work order with complete system specifications, updates the dispatch calendar, and sends confirmation notifications to both the service team and facility manager with estimated arrival times.
