When is the Right Time to Upgrade Your HVAC Field Service Software?

It’s amazing the number of times executives from successful HVAC Companies have inquired about HVAC Field Service Management software only to say that they’re too busy to make changes or it just isn’t the right time. The problem is, during the time upgrading is put off, their business is missing out on growth and revenue opportunities.

So when is the right time to upgrade your field service software?

As summertime winds down, so too does the busy HVACR season. This lull is the perfect time to address your business processes and your field service software needs. The offseason provides the time to take a serious look at individual aspects of your company and evaluate what is working and what needs to change.

Here is our recommended timeline for systems changes for HVACR contractors:

September – Cooling season is over! September is the perfect time to shop around. Do your research, ask questions, and view software demos.

October – You have chosen your new software. October is the month for planning the transition from start to finish. Work together with your new partner to ensure nothing is missed.

November/December – It’s time to implement the software and put all the planning into motion. Don’t forget the test run!

January – Go live! Now you can take on more jobs, grow your business, and strengthen customer & staff loyalty.

HVAC companies that have taken the time to upgrade their field service operations and connect the field with their back office have realized significant improvements in field efficiency. This has not only created a more satisfied workforce but ultimately it has improved customer satisfaction, resulting in additional opportunities for growth and revenue.
