Software for oilfield dispatchers

One screen that says what needs you.

Every stop, who has it, what is still without a driver, and what the field just flagged — so you stop being the only person who knows the plan, and stop being the person everyone rings to ask where the truck is.

The dispatch board: today’s stops, one needing a driver, and two units flagged down from the field with photos attached.

Your day

Everyone rings you, because you are the only one who knows the plan.

The plan lives in your head and on the whiteboard behind you. Drivers ring in to ask what is next. Customers ring in to ask where the truck is, and you do not know either. When somebody calls in sick, the whole board moves in your head and nowhere else.

None of that is a people problem. It is what happens when the plan and the record of the work live in two places, and neither of them is the phone in the truck.

What the app puts in front of you

The board, the map, and who has seen what.

One screen for the day, and a live map for where the trucks actually are.

  • The boardEvery job for the day: what it is, who has it, what state it is in. Assign in a tap. Reorder a driver’s stops. Add a second man to a job and mark whether he bills. It is on the driver’s phone as soon as you assign it.
  • Assignment viewedYou can see when the assignment showed up on the driver’s phone. No more “did you get that?” texts. And a message button next to every crew member when you do need to say something.
  • The live mapWhere the trucks are while they are on the clock and sharing their location. At sites you have pinned on the map, the app records the arrival on its own — the job card flips and the on-site clock starts, so the record of when work began is not a guess made later. Sharing location is each driver’s own switch, and tracking everyone on the clock is off until the owner turns it on.

Example data

Field problems and customer requests, without the phone.

What the field flags, what customers ask for, and a copilot that drafts the dispatch — none of it by phone call.

  • What the field flaggedA unit reported down from a truck arrives on your board with the photos attached, and you can open a service call straight from the report. SOS from any phone shows on the map as an open request until somebody in the office acknowledges it — and “Help is on the way” lands back on that phone.
  • Requests without the phone callGrowthYour customers ask for fuel or a pickup from a link you give them. It lands in your inbox with the site, the unit and who asked already filled in; approve it and it becomes a dispatch. They get an email that it is scheduled, and another when the driver is on the way.
  • A copilot for the boardGrowth“Send Ben to Coyote Rim with the 500-gallon tank tomorrow morning.” Copilot drafts the dispatch, matches the names to your real pad and unit, and hands you a card. You check it and confirm. It never sends anything on its own.

Example data

Just as important

You do not rebuild the day from texts.

It never makes you rebuild the day from texts. What the driver logged is the record; you do not type it again at month end, and neither does anyone else. And it never blocks a driver from finishing a job because something in the office is not done.

Twenty minutes with your own drivers and jobs on the board, and a straight answer about whether it fits. No card to start.
