Can I see all engineers and their daily jobs in one view?

Yes. The admin dashboard shows every engineer's scheduled jobs, times, locations, and completion status for any given day in a single view.

Can I add travel time between jobs to prevent being late?

Yes. Configure minimum travel time buffers between consecutive jobs per engineer. The scheduler prevents bookings that don't allow sufficient travel time between locations.

Can field engineers see their daily job schedule on a mobile?

Yes. The mobile job view shows engineers their full daily schedule, start times, client name, address, access code, job description, and tools required, without an office call.

Can I reassign a job if an engineer is unavailable?

Yes. From the admin view, drag and drop jobs between engineers. The affected client receives an automatic WhatsApp notification with the updated engineer name and arrival time.

Can service contract clients self-schedule their annual appointment?

Yes. At the appropriate point in the contract year, contract clients receive an automated message with a scheduling link. They book their visit from your live calendar without any admin involvement.

Can I block out engineer unavailability for holidays or training?

Yes. Mark any engineer as unavailable for specific dates. Their jobs for that period either need manual reassignment or clients can be notified and offered the next available date.

Can I track job completion and missed appointments?

Yes. Engineers mark jobs as complete from the mobile view. Missed or incomplete jobs are flagged in the dashboard for follow-up. Completion rates per engineer are visible in reporting.

Trades Software

Trades Scheduling Software

Trades scheduling software manages job calendars, multi-engineer allocation, travel time, and service contract appointments in a single system, replacing whiteboard job allocation with a digital schedule every engineer carries in their pocket. Bizzly's scheduler is payment-confirmed, every job slot in the calendar is backed by a Stripe payment, so the schedule represents financially committed work, not hopeful enquiries.

What is Trades Scheduling Software?

Scheduling software for a trades business handles the operational complexity of multiple jobs, multiple engineers, variable job durations, travel time, and parts availability.

✓ Job calendar showing all scheduled, confirmed, and completed jobs by date
✓ Engineer-specific job allocation and daily view
✓ Travel time buffers between jobs in the same day
✓ Service contract appointment scheduling per client
✓ Mobile-accessible schedule for engineers on the road

Good scheduling software for trades businesses means the right engineer arrives at the right property at the right time, with every job committed before it occupies a slot.

The problems trades scheduling software solves

Manual workarounds that cost trades businesses hours every week.

Engineers allocated to jobs by text message every morning

Managing a team of 4 engineers by sending individual daily job allocations via WhatsApp is inefficient, error-prone, and completely manual. A shared digital schedule solves this.

Jobs running over and knocking the rest of the day back

Without travel time buffers and realistic job duration settings, a job that overruns by 30 minutes makes you late for every job thereafter. Buffer time in the schedule prevents this cascade.

Service contract appointments that never get booked until they're nearly expired

Annual boiler service contracts that expire in October are typically forgotten until September. A scheduling trigger at the right time routes the client to book their annual visit automatically.

No way to see which engineer is overloaded and which has empty slots

Without a scheduling overview, the director of a 5-engineer business doesn't know who has space for additional jobs today. A dashboard view shows all engineer capacity in real time.

How Bizzly works

From sign-up to your first paid booking in under 15 minutes.

Choose your industry Launch Pack

Pick the pre-configured template for your industry. Subscription plans, booking calendar, and Stripe payments are already set up, just add your services and rates.

Customer pays first, then books

A customer subscribes or buys a session pack. Stripe processes the payment. Bizzly creates their quota. They can now book sessions up to their limit.

Calendar enforces quota automatically

The booking calendar only shows slots to customers who have available quota. No double-bookings, no unpaid slots, no manual checking, the system handles it.

The Solution

How Bizzly handles trades scheduling software

Purpose-built features for trades businesses — not bolted-on workarounds.

Multi-engineer daily scheduling view

Every engineer's allocated jobs, start times, addresses, and job types in a single dashboard. Add, reassign, or reschedule jobs from the admin view in seconds.

Multi-engineer dashboard

Travel time and job duration buffers

Set realistic job durations per job type (e.g. boiler service: 90 mins) and minimum travel buffers between jobs. The system prevents double-booking or unrealistic scheduling.

Realistic job scheduling

Contract service appointment scheduling

Annual contract holders receive an automated reminder and scheduling link at the right point in their contract year. Their appointment fills your schedule without manual outreach.

Contract appointment automation

Mobile job view for field engineers

Engineers access their daily job schedule, job details, client address, contact number, and access notes from the mobile view. No paper job sheets, no phone calls to the office for details.

Real-world use cases

How trades scheduling software works in practice.

Use case 1

4-engineer plumbing company with 30 jobs per day

30 jobs across 4 engineers. Each engineer opens Bizzly on their phone in the morning: full job list, addresses, access notes, and estimated durations. Office confirms from the same dashboard in real time.

Use case 2

Annual boiler service scheduling at scale

200 annual service contract holders. In October, the system sends all clients whose contracts expire in Q4 a scheduling link. 200 service slots fill across the next 12 weeks without a single manual outreach call.

Use case 3

Emergency callout slot management

Emergency slots held open each day fill from the online booking flow. When an emergency comes in, it appears in the scheduler immediately. The nearest available engineer is assigned from the dashboard.

Use case 4

New job allocation when an engineer calls in sick

An engineer is ill on Tuesday. Their jobs for the day are visible in the admin view. Reassign to available engineers in 10 minutes. Affected clients receive a WhatsApp with the updated time.
