The Old Way

Managing Custom Signage Projects Was Manual Chaos

Every signage project - from storefront signs to vehicle wraps to channel letters - had unique requirements. Project managers tracked everything in spreadsheets, coordinating designers, fabricators, installers, and permit processes manually.

With 200+ projects annually across commercial clients, residential jobs, and corporate installations, the manual coordination was overwhelming. Projects got delayed, installation teams showed up unprepared, and tracking material orders was a constant struggle.

The Problem

Generic Project Management Tools Required 4 Months of Setup

They tried standard field service software, but it couldn't handle the complexity: vehicle wraps needed different workflows than monument signs, channel letters required electrical permits that pylon signs didn't, and ADA compliance varied by project type.

Their IT team estimated 4 months to manually configure all the project-specific workflows, approval chains, material tracking, and installer assignment rules. Even then, when they added new service types (like LED retrofits), IT would need another month to reconfigure everything.

AI Configured Their System in 3 Days

Fieldproxy's AI analyzed their past project records, permit requirements, and service types. Instead of 4 months of manual IT work, AI auto-generated project-specific workflows.

Project-Specific Workflows

AI created unique workflows for 15 signage types - from permit requirements for pylon signs to weather-dependent installation windows for vinyl wraps.

Smart Material Tracking

AI learned which materials each project type needed and auto-generated ordering checklists based on project specs and design files.

Intelligent Installer Matching

AI matched installers to projects based on certifications (electrical, crane operation), project type experience, and current workload.

Adaptive Scheduling

AI automatically adjusted timelines when permits were delayed or weather affected outdoor installations, updating all stakeholders.

The Transformation

From Manual Spreadsheets to AI-Powered Project Management

The Transformation
