Real-Time Control for Electricians Field Operations

Managing electrical work means coordinating rough-in/first fix/second fix, safety checks, permits, and commissioning—often across multiple sites and tight windows. Teams need live visibility of who’s onsite, what parts and tools are issued, and where tasks slip. Shifton Field Service gives one operational picture with accurate ETAs, clean handoffs, and proof-of-work.

How Shifton Field Service Empowers Electrical Teams

A focused field-service toolkit for permits, LOTO safety, inspections, testing, and handovers. Give managers, supervisors, and electricians the same live picture to cut delays and keep work auditable.

Team Location Tracking
Track electrician movement in real time. See who is where, how long they spent on a site, and where they were during the workday. No chaos, no calls — everything is on the map.
Mobile Access
All the work is in your pocket. Techs start the workday with one tap, mark tasks, attach photos/readings, and receive notifications on the phone. No Excel files or paperwork — everything in one app.
Digital Job Forms
Create, fill out, and sign forms right in the system. Photos, signatures, comments — everything is stored online with no paper trail. Ideal for permits, safety checks (LOTO), inspection reports, test sheets (IR, RCD/GFCI), and handover forms.
Client & Site Management

Store all client and site data in one place — contacts, addresses, panels/circuits, drawings, and work history. Managers see everything they need to respond quickly and keep quality high. No more lost phone numbers or duplicate Excel sheets.

Boost Efficiency with Electricians Field Service

Managing mixed electrical work (service calls, installs, maintenance, commissioning) requires structured execution, clear ownership, and live coordination across PMs, foremen, and field techs.

Job Progress Tracking
Real-time control — from start to finish. See who is executing a task, what’s already done, and which steps are ahead (rough-in, first fix, second fix, test/commission). Transparency that saves time and nerves.
Instant Alerts
The system will notify you if a task didn’t start on time or slips into delay (problematic task). No surprises — you always know what’s happening in the team. Push, email, Telegram — choose your way to stay in the loop.
Inventory & Warehouse Management
Full control over materials and tools — cable, breakers, conduit, fittings, fixtures, testers, PPE. Track what’s issued, where it’s used, and when to restock. When creating a task, specify which items will be needed to complete it. Fewer losses, more transparency: every consumable and tool is accounted for — from warehouse to site.
Access Control

Configure who sees what — each with their own access level:
Owner • Admin • Requester • Approvers • Technicians (Electricians)
Security and order in data without unnecessary restrictions.

Multiple regions or crews? No problem. Divide the map into service zones by territory or project. Plan work and track teams in different places — all from one panel. Unified control, transparent structure, local autonomy.

Shifton Field Service gives electrical teams one operational picture—from dispatch to closeout. You get real-time control, clean proof of work, and KPIs that actually move: higher first-time fix, steadier workflows, predictable costs.
