The story in brief

Rowland Door Services is a Birmingham-based specialist in loading bay equipment and industrial doors, with decades of experience supporting commercial and industrial customers across the UK. The business provides a complete service, from supply and installation through to ongoing maintenance, repair and 24/7 emergency support, helping customers keep their sites safe, secure and operational.

As the business continued to grow, the team needed a more efficient way to manage the increasing volume of jobs, engineers, customer information and service requirements. Spreadsheets and in-house software had supported the company for a time, but they no longer offered the visibility, control or flexibility needed to manage a busy field service operation at scale.

To keep delivering a responsive, reliable service while improving internal processes, Rowland Door Services looked for a system that could bring their operations together in one place. That is where Joblogic came in.

Their challenge

Rowland Door Services relied on spreadsheets and internal systems that could not keep pace with year-on-year growth. As customer expectations increased, their existing setup struggled to retain and manage the data they needed.

How Joblogic helped

Joblogic fit their requirements and the team adopted key tools including the Mobile Engineer App and the Customer Portal, improving live job status updates, engineer reporting, and customer access to job information and audit trails.

The outcome

Their biggest change was moving from a paper-based management system to a virtual system, reducing paperwork by at least 80%. They also report ongoing time and cost savings, and the mobile app and portal have been praised by customers.

Mobile Engineer App

Joblogic’s Mobile App has been a huge part of Rowland Door’s business processes for the last 4 years. Live job status and the ability to develop bespoke mobile forms for engineers, have vastly reduced engineer reporting errors and fine-tuned data gathering.

Customer Portal

The Customer Portal has given their customers the ability to see live statuses of their active jobs and help with the audit trail. Also, the tool has relieved their back-office in producing all the information, giving the power back to the customer to view their own reports.
