Shifts with a real minimum, work offered only to the controllers who hold the ticket, and four people moved to a different site the night before.
Shift booking
Date, start time, hours and head count chosen on your page, with the minimum charge applied before anyone agrees to anything.

Day shifts, night closures and the Sunday callout on one week, so you can see which sites are short before the trucks load.

Attach each service only to the people who hold the ticket for it, and who is on, who is off and who came off a night shift is one screen rather than three phone calls.
The three ways a builder can be covered on the same bit of road, priced side by side so they pick the one they can afford.
Controllers, hours and the gear are separate lines, so when the contractor queries the number you can show which part it came from.
Set the floor on the service and a short job prices at the floor. The call-out fee conversation never has to happen.
The quote goes from the phone while you are still parked at the compound, which is usually before anyone else has rung back.
Arrow board, extra signage, a second ute, another controller for the pour. Each one moves the quoted total when the contractor ticks it, so nothing has to be re-typed and no figure gets walked back.
The site changes the night before more often than it does not. Drag the shift and the whole crew goes with it, on any plan.
Move the booking and the four names move too, so nobody turns up at yesterday’s compound at half five in the morning.
Switch the reschedule notice on and the change is emailed when you make it. It stays off until you do, because not every shuffle is worth a message.
A shift that starts at ten and ends at five is one block, not two halves either side of midnight.
Main let go on the corner in Surry Hills. Need two on the boards from now until the diggers are out. Anyone left?
Traffic control runs out of people long before it runs out of hours. When there is nobody left, the page says so and takes the job as a request anyway.
A shift is not done when the cones come in. Every one of them sits at a stage you can see, so the ones waiting on a purchase order are not the ones you find out about at the end of the month.
Built for your trade
A water authority has a main exposed for two days. Day shift, defined hours, plan already drawn, two controllers on the bats.
Ten at night to five in the morning under a lane closure. A different rate, a different crew and a different set of people willing to do it.
The closure is the whole job. Barriers out at six, roads back at eleven, and the client is a council rather than a builder.
Unplanned, urgent and priced accordingly. The minimum charge is what stops a three-hour callout being sold as three hours.
One lane closed for half a day while the trusses go over the roof. Short, tightly timed, and always booked at short notice.
You crew a shift somebody else is running. Their hours, your controllers, your rate, and their job number on the record.
Two hours of pedestrian and driveway control for a builder. The minimum applies, and the builder sees that when they book.
A shopping centre wants the work done between closing and opening. Overnight, on private land, and still a proper shift.
A plant shutdown wanting a crew for a week straight. One booking a day, the same names, and one invoice at the end.
Most of this trade is invoiced to a contractor and paid by transfer. Record that by hand for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Mark the shift paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and always will.
A council or an event company that wants to pay on a card gets a link, and the money is yours.
Ask for part of a week-long shutdown up front and the rest at the end. Staged requests come with Pro, after the booking exists.
Past a certain distance the travel eats the shift. Set what each depot covers and the page stops taking work outside it.
Addresses outside it are told straight away rather than after somebody has already put a crew on the roster.
If you crew out of two yards, each keeps its own area and the shift falls to the yard that can actually cover it.
Inside your area the rate is the rate. Bookables never quietly adds anything for a longer run up the highway.
Most of this trade is a handful of civil and utility clients booking again and again. What you crewed, what you charged and what is still unpaid sits on their card instead of in last year's diary.
The agreed hourly rate, the job numbers and the compound they use are on the account, so a new booking starts from what you agreed.
Every shift you have crewed for them, with the names on it, so a query about a Tuesday in March takes a minute rather than an evening.
Emergencies, planned works and the shifts they cancelled all sit on the same record, which is the argument at contract renewal.
One app for the whole job
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Yes. Attach each service only to the team members who hold that ticket, and neither your booking page nor the assignment list will offer anybody else for the work.
No, and it is worth being straight about it. There is no ticket register and no expiry alerting. What you get is control over who can be offered for which service, so the register you keep elsewhere is actually enforced when work is assigned.
You can. Put a minimum charge on the service and short jobs price at that figure, visible to the contractor before they commit rather than argued about on the invoice.
Run them as separate services with their own hours, their own rates and their own crews. Someone booking a night closure sees night availability and a night rate, and your people are only offered the shifts they actually work.
Yes. Drag the shift on the calendar or the team view and every assignment on it moves too. Switch the reschedule notice on and the client is emailed the change, so the site knows before anyone arrives somewhere else. It is off until you turn it on.
The plan reference, the permit number and the access arrangements sit on the booking with the site, so whoever is leading the shift opens the job with the same information you had when you priced it.
