Spend less of the day figuring out the route.
Put the day’s stops in a useful driving order. Keep customer arrival windows, access hours, and locked stops in mind.
Fuel and hours
Twelve stops across two counties, without the zig-zag.
Built by hand
- Back and forth across the county line
- The 9 a.m. appointment squeezed in late
- Two trips to the same driveway
Optimized
- Stops ordered by real driving time and distance
- Appointment windows and access hours kept
- Every stop at one property done in one visit
What the route respects
Fast, but never at the expense of a promise.
Appointment windows
Real customer windows are kept.
Access hours
A business that opens at 9 isn’t visited at 8.
Time on site
Work time is counted separately from driving.
Daylight and rain
Work that can’t happen after dark or in rain is placed where it can.
You stay in charge
Pin the morning, optimize the rest.
- 1
Pin
Lock the stops you want first. They stay together at the top, in your order.
- 2
Optimize
Everything flexible is planned after them, from the start point you choose.
- 3
Keep it current
Added work slots in and arrival times refresh as the day goes.
One driveway
Four stops at one house means one visit.
Trap check, bait refill, camera swap and a pest treatment at the same address stay grouped, so the truck doesn’t come back three times.
Split shifts
A route with a real break in the middle.
- Techs see Shift 1, the break and Shift 2 on their route, with later-shift visits greyed out.
- Starting a later visit early shows a warning or asks dispatch to approve, set per company.
- Clocking out for the break pauses the route, and the next shift can start from home.
- Dispatch sees free time for each shift and gets an alert when a tech is not back from the break.
- Appointments are placed where they can actually be reached around the break.

When the day runs long
Trim a route without touching the promises.
- Pin a leading group of stops so the remaining route is planned after it.
- Insert added work into the route and refresh arrival estimates.
- Trim overlong routes while protecting work such as appointments, active visits, and crew commitments.
- Re-plan the route from where the technician is when they start, and alert dispatch about late starts.
- Show split shifts as Shift 1, the break and Shift 2, and warn or ask dispatch before a later-shift visit starts early.
- Pause the route during the break, plan the next shift from home, and alert dispatch when a tech is not back.
- Show office time inside a field day as its own stop on the route.
Part of Dispatch & Routing
Dispatch decides who. Routing decides the order.
Assigned stops become a driving plan, and live arrival times flow to the field app and the customer.
