Groundwork that runs to plan, not chance
Muck-away, foundations, drainage runs and site levels — Field 2 Service schedules the machines and crews by site, moves the board when the ground's too wet, and tracks the cost of every job against the quote (Professional and up).
✓ No card required · ✓ Invoiced by bank transfer
Sound like your site?
Diggers, operators, tickets and weather all decide your day — and a paper diary can't keep up with any of them.
Machines in the wrong place
A 13-tonner idle on one site while another waits for it. One whiteboard across several sites and half a day's plant hire is gone before the first bucket.
One wet week reshuffles everything
Waterlogged ground stops a dig dead. When today's muck-away slides, so does the week behind it — and re-planning it on paper eats the morning.
No idea where the margin went
Plant hire, fuel, muck-away tickets and wages all pile up, but with the costs on scraps of paper you don't know if a job made money until long after it's done.
Plan the plant and the operators, site by site
Put every dig on the Smart Dispatch board (Professional and up) with the machine and operator it needs. Drag work to another day or site in seconds, and the conflict check stops you promising the same digger or driver twice. The certification guard (Essentials and up) flags an operator without the ticket the job demands before you assign them.
- Diggers, dumpers and operators on a drag-and-drop board
- Double-booking conflict checks across plant and crews
- Certification guard blocks an out-of-ticket operator
When the ground's too wet, the week moves in minutes
Groundwork lives and dies by the weather. When a site turns to soup, drag the affected digs to the next workable day and the whole crew's diary updates at once — no ringing round, no double-booked machines, no site standing idle in the rain.
- Drag the day's work when the ground's waterlogged
- Every machine and crew's week in one view
- Double-booking checks keep plant off two sites
Quote the dig, take a job deposit before you hire in
Build the quote from your price book (Essentials and up) — machine days, muck-away loads, stone and labour. Take a deposit on the job so you're not carrying the plant-hire bill, and let the customer accept online (Essentials and up). The accepted quote lands straight on the board as scheduled dig days.
- Price book for plant, muck-away, stone and labour
- Job deposit collected before you hire in the machines
- Online acceptance turns the quote into scheduled digs
See what each dig actually cost — against the quote (Professional and up)
Log plant hire, fuel, muck-away tickets and other costs against the job as they land, and every figure runs through the same VAT-smart maths as your quotes and invoices. The reports show revenue, margin and where the money's going, so you find out a job's bleeding while you can still do something about it.
- Expense and job-cost tracking against every job
- Costs measured against the quoted price
- Revenue, margin and job-performance reports
