The problem

Field service dispatchers were assigning jobs over group texts and a whiteboard, with technicians finding out about schedule changes only when they called in.

Our approach

01

Ran the design phase around two roles with opposite needs: a dispatcher's day view for assigning and rearranging jobs, and a technician's simple mobile queue for what's next.

02

Wireframed and prototyped in Figma first, testing the drag-to-reassign flow before writing a line of application code.

03

Built the working prototype in React with a Node.js backend, focused on the assignment and status-update flows rather than every peripheral feature.

04

Designed status changes to sync in near real time, so a technician marking a job complete updates the dispatcher's board immediately.

The outcome

The prototype demonstrates a scheduling flow that removes the group-text back-and-forth entirely: dispatchers assign from one board, technicians see their queue update live.
