Overview

An established glass, glazing, and door installation provider in California sought a more connected operational framework. Their teams handled a growing workload but lacked the tools to align sales, dispatch, and field service. They needed a system built for scale, mobile usage, and clear visibility across jobs, technicians, and customer activity.

Challenge

Managing an enterprise-level Shopify Plus storefront across multiple EU regions introduced ongoing technical and operational pressure. The team needed to maintain speed, accessibility, and reliability while supporting multiple languages, ERP integrations, and hybrid buyer journeys, all without slowing feature delivery or risking live store performance.

Disconnected Scheduling Flow

The dispatch team relied on scattered tools, making it difficult to assign technicians efficiently or adjust workloads when priorities shifted.

Manual Quote Handling

Quotes were created through manual steps, often leading to inconsistencies and delays when converting approved work into active jobs.

No Live Job Tracking

Supervisors could not follow technician progress or job status in real time, limiting their ability to intervene or reassign when needed.

Minimal Technician Visibility

Technicians lacked easy access to work orders, past service details, or job history, leading to repeated information requests and lost time.

Limited Mobile Support

The field team needed a mobile experience built specifically for on-site work, from job access to updates and customer communication.

Why They Chose Folio3

Field Service Expertise

Our experience with Salesforce Field Service gave them confidence we could map schedules, jobs, and workloads accurately.

Mobile-First Capability

We offered the ability to design a tailored mobile app aligned with real field conditions.

Unified Data Handling

Our team understood how to connect sales, dispatch, and service information in a single workflow.

CPQ Knowledge

They valued our capability to streamline quoting and ensure consistent quote-to-work-order transitions.

The Solution We Delivered

Fully Connected Scheduling and Dispatch System

We implemented Salesforce Field Service to organize technician assignments, shift patterns, and routing in one environment. Dispatchers gained accurate visibility into availability, workloads, and job priorities. Automated scheduling rules helped assign the right technician to each task. The updated workflow reduced manual steps and gave the team a clear view of jobs moving through the day.

Custom Mobile App for Field Technicians

We built a mobile app that allowed technicians to access work orders, schedules, and customer history directly from the field. The app supported live status updates, appointment confirmations, and on-site documentation. It aligned with real working conditions, giving technicians a reliable way to complete tasks without returning to the office or calling dispatch for details.

Automated Quote-to-Work-Order Process

Using Salesforce CPQ, we created a structured quote setup that guided sales teams through consistent pricing and configuration. Approved quotes automatically generated work orders in Field Service, removing re-entry errors. The flow ensured sales and service teams operated from the same data, eliminating delays created by manual handoffs.

Smart Dispatch Rules and Technician Visibility

Smart dispatch logic routed jobs based on skill, location, and workload. Technicians could view assigned tasks, customer notes, and job history in real time. This improved coordination across the team and reduced the time spent clarifying job details. Dispatchers gained clearer insight into progress, helping them respond quickly when workloads shifted.

Integrated Dashboards and
KPI Tracking

We introduced dashboards across Sales Cloud and Field Service, enabling supervisors to monitor technician productivity, job timelines, and daily workloads. The team gained consistent insight into KPIs, helping leadership make informed decisions about staffing, scheduling, and operational planning.

Customer Appointment Notifications

Appointment updates were embedded into the workflow through Field Service, giving customers timely notifications. The updates relied on data the technicians already provided, generating a smoother, more predictable customer experience.
