    Dispatch

    Assigning jobs to crews/trucks and routing them across the day.

    Dispatchers match jobs to crews based on skill, location, equipment, and ETA. Modern dispatch boards show jobs on a calendar lane per truck with drag-to-reassign. AI-assisted dispatch optimizes routes across multiple trucks to minimize drive time.
