Managing field crews across service areas

Utility companies manage field crews across vast service areas. Power cuts need immediate response, water mains burst overnight, and scheduled meter reads happen across hundreds of properties daily.

GPS vehicle tracking for utility companies

Track field crews across your entire service area and respond to outages faster based on actual crew locations.

What you see:

  • Real-time locations showing where your crews are across the network
  • Route history showing which engineers visited each site
  • Journey times to outages so you can give accurate ETAs
  • Vehicle alerts helping protect equipment at remote sites overnight

Dash cams for utilities fleets

Field crews work at remote infrastructure sites and travel through private land to access network equipment. Connected dash cams monitor safety and provide evidence.

What dash cams do:

  • Alert you when drivers use mobile phones while driving to emergency callouts
  • Show you dangerous driving in real time so you can intervene immediately
  • Record footage of incidents at infrastructure sites or on private land
  • Capture video remotely without needing crews to return vehicles from remote locations

Job management software for utilities companies

Handle emergency callouts alongside planned network maintenance with Klipboard job management software that keeps field crews organised across your service area.

How it works:

  • Send outage jobs to the field crew closest to affected customers
  • Set up inspection jobs at substations and network sites across your area
  • Capture photos and notes at sites from mobile phones
  • Generate invoices from completed emergency and maintenance work

Fleet management benefits for utility operations

Coordinate response across your network

See all available field crews across your service area during major incidents and assign teams to multiple outages.

Reduce customer complaints during outages

Give customers realistic restoration times based on actual crew locations and journey times, reducing complaint calls when power cuts or water issues happen.

Invoice emergency work faster

Generate invoices directly from completed emergency callout jobs and planned maintenance work, speeding up payment for urgent network repairs.

Protect equipment at remote sites

Get alerts when vehicles move at substations or remote network locations outside normal hours, protecting expensive testing equipment stored overnight at isolated sites.

Common questions from utility companies

Can I give customers accurate restoration times?

Yes, with fleet tracking, you can see exactly where crews are and how long journeys are taking. With our Live Share feature, your customers can see realistic arrival times instead of guessing when power or water will be restored.

How do I prove we completed infrastructure inspections?

Engineers take photos at substations and network sites with GPS timestamps. This creates records showing inspections happened at the right locations on the right dates.

What if my engineers work at sites with no signal?

The Klipboard job management app works offline, so engineers complete inspection records without connectivity. Everything uploads automatically when they're back in range.

Can I track emergency callout response times?

Yes. See how long it took crews to reach outage sites from when the callout came in. Use this data when customers query response times.

How does this help balance emergency work and planned maintenance?

Track which planned infrastructure inspections are completed so schedules stay on track when emergency outages disrupt your programme.
