IT for Construction & Field Services

Half the business is not at a desk.

Contractors, trades, and field-service companies run from trucks, jobsites, and a small office. Estimates, schedules, photos, invoices, and customer calls all depend on phones, tablets, and files being reachable wherever the work is. WOLFTRAXX SYSTEMS can help plan the technology so the field and the office stay connected.

What to sort out first

  • Mobile devices. Phones and tablets set up consistently, with a plan for lost or stolen devices.
  • Files from anywhere. Estimates, plans, photos, and customer records available in the field and backed up; see Microsoft 365 for Business.
  • Jobsite connectivity. Decide how crews get a connection on sites without one, and who supports it.
  • Phones and call routing. Customer calls reaching the right person whether they are in the office or on a roof; see VoIP & Phone Services.
  • Getting paid in the field. Mobile payment options can be discussed through Merchant Services.
  • Job and accounting software. Coordinate with the vendors for estimating, scheduling, and accounting tools; QuickBooks support and training are available through Business Applications.
  • Office network and cameras. Wi-Fi, workstations, and any camera or access-point needs at the shop or office; low-voltage work is coordinated with the installing vendor.

Questions worth asking

  • If a crew lead’s phone or tablet is lost, who locks it and how fast?
  • Where do job photos and estimates live, and who can reach them?
  • Who answers the phone when everyone is on a jobsite?
  • Who owns the relationship with each software and internet vendor?
