Customers Send Instant Service Requests – Now via Text!
In 2017, Smart Facility Software introduced Service Optimizer, an add-on to ES Optimizer that makes the entire ES Staff mobile – Technicians as well as Managers. Technicians receive their daily assignments on a mobile device and log their completed work as they go.
One of the exciting developments that came with this functionality is the ability for any customer to digitally send service requests to Environmental Services when a high traffic area is in need of attention. The patient, visitor or staff member simply scans the QR code posted in the area and submits the issue.
Now via Text!
Starting now, mobile service requests are also possible with a simple text message. A 5‑digit phone number (a short code) is posted in the high traffic area. Any customer or staff member texts their message along with the room code to the posted short code number.
Whether submitted via QR code or text, service requests are sent immediately to Managers on their mobile devices, where they can task them out to Technicians. The software creates the QR codes, text numbers and signs to post in your facility.
