Utilities
Keeping critical parts in the right place
Transform performance with visibility and intelligence in the final mile
The global field service management market size in the utility sector is expected to reach $10.81 billion by 2026¹, but most field service organisations are not managing inventory at the final mile. You lose sight of inventory, waste money on delivery costs, have low technician productivity, and are risking customer satisfaction.
To manage your field services and maintain customer loyalty you need visibility, intelligence, and security in the field. 79%² of utility companies believe they are customer-centric so keeping your customers happy by offering the best SLAs and First Time Fix is key to success. It’s time to take control of your final mile.
