SOLUTIONS · WHO IT'S FOR
Built for the people who answer for the hours.
Three seats carry the hours in a maintenance company. CrewPlanner gives all three the same number, and each a different reason to want it.
FIND YOUR SEAT
Add the next property, not the next truck
Capacity you already pay for, found before the quarter closes.

Take on the next contracts with the crews you already have.
You built the book on recurring contracts and steady crews. Growth usually means another truck, another foreman, another hire. A plan for every property shows how much of that growth your current crews can already carry.
1 trucknever bought
Fay-Ark had planned another truck and foreman for its growth. Once one four-person crew took the biggest properties on plans, a route came off the schedule instead.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
- Month-end asks where the hours went. Nobody can answer past "the weather."
- Revenue grows, headcount grows, and margin stays exactly where it was.
- Renewal comes round and you price next year on last year's guess.
WHAT CHANGES
You see the variance across the portfolio before you change a single thing about the operation.
It starts with your portfolio. We plan every contract and hand you a report of estimated hours against planned hours, property by property. The hours you already pay for, and where they're going. Found hours become new contracts won on the same trucks and the same payroll, and the plan itself walks into the next bid with calculated hours instead of a gut number.
FOR BRANCH MANAGERS
Walk into month-end with the reason, not a theory about the weather.
The number on the sheet is yours whether or not you had a way to see it coming. CrewPlanner gives you the per-contract view a month before the meeting does.
“We're here to set you up for success.”
Jared runs nine maintenance crews at Fay-Ark. Their paid hours stayed the same when they moved onto plans; the work done in those hours went up.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
- Every production manager plans his own way, and results vary crew to crew inside one branch.
- You know which contracts are bleeding. You find out at renewal, when it's too late to fix the price.
- The intervention goes where the loudest complaint is, not where it moves the numbers.
WHAT CHANGES
Defensible margin, per contract, and one standard across every crew.
The variance report shows where the branch is meeting budget, where ticket hours are being exceeded and by which service, and which teams have room to perform better. Plans are built to the company standard, so a good result is repeatable and a bad one is explainable. And when the veteran who held the properties in his head moves on, the plans stay in the branch.
FOR PRODUCTION MANAGERS
6:40 a.m. One crew short. The plan redraws before the coffee's poured.
Every property lives in your head, every morning starts with your phone, and every new foreman learns the sites from you. CrewPlanner puts the plan where the crew can see it, so you can coach instead of dispatch.
A new crew “beat the ticket time on the first run.”
The crew had never worked that property before. They ran it from the plan.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
- Forty minutes of phone calls every time someone calls in.
- The same ticket hours every week while the actual work changes with the season.
- A new foreman, no plan for the property, and you're the only one who knows the site.
WHAT CHANGES
One standard, every site, and a plan that survives the first no-show.
Every property gets a plan per crew member: who does what, with which machine, in what order, and how long it should take, in every foreman's hands before the trucks roll. When the morning changes, tell the Planning Assistant what changed and the property re-balances across the crew you have. The plan points at properties and services, never at people; the crew dictates the change, the plan does the arithmetic.
In the interest of everyone's time
The economics of planning only work for certain operations. Here's the split, stated plainly.
CrewPlanner is for you if
- You run recurring maintenance at $3M+, from residential communities and HOAs to commercial and industrial sites
- You want to standardize production across the organization, and month-end keeps asking the same question: where did the hours go?
- You want visibility into actual hours, available capacity, and the health of every contract before renewals come around
And not for you if
- You run a small residential operation, one or two crews, mow, blow and go. The math needs a recurring portfolio.
- You want a system to police employees or target your lowest performers. The plan exists so managers can coach. We'll tell you the same on the first call.
- You're already at the highest margins you believe are possible, and see no efficiency left to gain in the field.
Whichever seat you're in, it starts with your portfolio.
Send your property list. We plan every property and show you estimated hours against planned hours, and where capacity may already exist, before you change a single thing about your operation.
