Better visibility and fewer admin headaches for Dakro Envirnmental
Dakro moved from a bespoke local system to Joblogic to give more of the team real-time access to job information, improve control of assets and planned work, and cut back-office admin.
The story in brief
Dakro Environmental Ltd specialises in Legionella control and air hygiene and is a well-established and respected name within the water treatment industry. Based in the West Midlands and founded in 1998, the company has built a strong reputation for delivering reliable, compliant, and high-quality services across a wide range of sectors.
Working predominantly with commercial clients, Dakro supports organisations including large corporations, schools, hospitals, hotels, and facilities management companies, helping them maintain safe and hygienic environments in line with strict regulatory standards. Alongside its commercial work, the business also provides boiler servicing for private customers, offering a well-rounded service that spans both commercial and domestic needs.
With decades of industry experience and a focus on operational safety and efficiency, Dakro continues to play a key role in helping its customers manage water and air hygiene risks, ensuring systems remain compliant, effective, and fit for purpose.
Dakro needed a system that could replace a bespoke local solution and support more of the workforce using it at the same time, with information visible in real time across the business.
Joblogic gave Dakro one platform that could cover what would typically take multiple software packages, with real-time access for users and fast support when the team needed help.
Joblogic is becoming central to Dakro’s day-to-day operations, helping the business work more efficiently through real-time visibility and wider adoption across the team.
Why Dakro Environmental chose Joblogic
Modernise their outdated system with real-time job tracking.
Automate invoicing and customer communication.
Reduce the administrative workload and free up resources for core service delivery.
The decision was driven by the desire to improve efficiency, cut costs, and better manage the increasing volume of jobs as the business expanded.
Challenge & Opportunity
Dakro needed to move on from a bespoke local system and give more of the team real-time access to job information without adding admin.
Bespoke system no longer fit day-to-day needs
Needed more users working in the system at once
Limited shared visibility across office and field
Admin burden from managing assets and records
Needed dependable planning to avoid missed tasks
Dakro needed one platform to manage jobs, assets, planned work, and ordering with live updates across the business.
Put job information in one place with live updates
Capture asset details on site and build a full register
Improve job costing and tracking from start to finish
Use planned maintenance scheduling to allocate work quickly
Speed up parts ordering through mobile selection and back-office alerts
“For us, Joblogic covers what would normally take two or three different software packages.”

The Joblogic features Dakro Environmental uses most
Asset Management
Joblogic’s Asset Management has aided Dakro significantly in their day-to-day management. Details of each asset can be easily recorded by engineers on-site which are then sent to the back-office and added to a fully comprehensive asset register. This allows management to keep track of their valuable equipment, as well as reducing the time-consuming administrative burden in the process.
Job Costing
Job Costing and Tracking has now been simplified by facilitating full data transparency between managers, engineers and customers alike. With real-time access to job information from creation to completion, all parties remain well informed of the progressive status of each task.
Planned Preventative Maintenance
The Planned Maintenance functionality of Joblogic’s property maintenance software has been crucial in Dakro’s operations by quickly identifying and allocating the correct engineer to each outstanding task using the platform’s drag and drop scheduler. This has ensured that no task is ever missed.
Purchase Order
Dakro have also saved time with Purchase Ordering by giving engineers the ability to select parts that are needed on-site from a full parts library on their mobile device. This alerts the back office that parts are required and they can turn this into an order instantly.

“One of the best things you offer is the instant feedback and help. There’s nothing worse than implementing a new system or trying to embrace it and getting stuck and becoming frustrated. If you were taking on a brand new system with no one to help you, you’d say ‘let’s just bin this and go back to the old way’. Instead, because of instant help, the small problems can be resolved quickly and you can move on so you keep the trust in the process and in the software. It’s really important to destroy those niggles one by one as soon as they occur so you can build more trust in the system.”
