The Challenge

Repair and maintenance is a moving target — every customer is different

Repair and maintenance teams need to know who is assigned, where technicians are working, which service task is completed, what materials were used, and what record should be reported to the customer or payroll.

Dispatching by phone, reporting by text, and paper service tickets create gaps that surface as billing disputes, missed customer follow-ups, and slow payroll.

Grownu connects dispatch, GPS time tracking, service tasks, photos, materials, and reports — so every visit produces a clean record for the customer and the back office.
