ContractMan - Contract resource management
The right crew, the right kit, on the right job
Build your engineer teams, equip them with the vehicles, assets and materials the work needs, then pin them to a job and schedule it in minutes. No spreadsheets, no phone-round, no wasted trips.
Fewer wasted visits
Jobs are fully resourced before they're scheduled, so crews aren't sent back for missing kit or parts.
Faster planning
Build and schedule a week's work in a fraction of the time.
Better cost control
Every job carries its true resource cost, from labour to materials.
The problem
Planning field work shouldn't take all day
Your engineers are in one system, your fleet in another, your tools on a spreadsheet and your stock in someone's head. So every job starts with a round of calls to find out who's free, which van is available and whether the parts are actually on the shelf.
When one piece is missing, the whole job slips. An engineer arrives without the right certification. A van turns up without the kit. A crew waits on site for materials that were never ordered.
ContractMan - puts people, vehicles, assets and materials in one place, so every job goes out complete.
Features
Team builder
Create crews for a single job or keep standing teams you reuse every week. Filter by skill, trade, grade, certification, home base and working pattern.
Skills and compliance
Hold qualifications, cards and permits against each engineer with expiry dates. Get warned before a certificate lapses, and stop unqualified engineers being assigned to work they can't legally do.
Fleet and vehicles
See every van, truck and specialist vehicle, where it's based, who it's assigned to and when it's due for service or MOT. Match vehicle type and capacity to the job.
Assets, tools and plant
Track equipment by serial number, location and condition. Book it out to a team, see when it's coming back and keep calibration and inspection dates in view.
Materials and stock
Allocate materials to jobs straight from stock levels across your stores and vans. Reserve what's needed, spot shortfalls early and raise a request before the job is due.
Job pinning
Attach a complete resource pack to any job in one move. Change a team member or swap a vehicle and the job updates instantly
Drag-and-drop scheduling
Plan by day, week or month across teams, regions and depots. Drag jobs to reschedule, and let the board handle the knock-on effects.
Clash and conflict alerts
Double bookings, expired qualifications, unavailable vehicles and missing stock are flagged the moment they happen, not the morning of the job.
Mobile app for engineers
Engineers see their schedule, job details, site access notes and kit list on their phone. They can confirm arrival, record materials used and close the job on site.
Reporting and utilisation
Track engineer utilisation, fleet usage, asset availability and material spend by job, team or region. See where capacity is sitting idle and where you're stretched.
