Booking software for traffic management crews in Ireland.
Shifts with a minimum that holds, work offered only to the people carded for it, and a crew moved to another site the night before.

Shift booking
They book a shift with hours on it
Date, start, hours and how many on the boards, picked on your page, with the minimum charge settled before anyone commits.
Learn moreCrew scheduling
Every closure and every crew on one week
Day works, night closures and the Sunday callout on one board, so a site that is a body short is not a surprise at six.
Learn moreA shift with the minimum already in the number.
Hours, head count and start time chosen on your page, with the floor applied before anyone agrees to anything. Nobody buys ninety minutes of a crew and a ute at ninety minutes' money.

Yes on Thursday night is a roster answer.
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.
One body, a stop/go pair, or the full closure.
Three ways to cover the same stretch of road, priced side by side, so the contractor takes the one the job can carry.
Priced by the hour and the head count
People, hours and gear are separate lines, so when the contractor queries the figure you can show him which part of it that came from.
A minimum that does not need defending
Set the floor on the service and a short shift prices at the floor. The turnout charge rather sorts itself out.
Sent before you leave the compound
The quote goes from the phone while you are still parked up, which tends to be before anybody else has rung him back.
Extras priced as options · Pro
Arrow board, extra signage, a second van, another body for the pour. Each moves the quoted total as the contractor ticks it, so nothing is re-typed and no figure has to be quietly walked back afterwards.

A crew of four moved in a single drag.
The site changes the night before more often than not. Drag the shift and every name on it goes with it, on any plan.
The assignment travels with the shift
Move the booking and the four names move too, so nobody arrives at last night’s compound at half five in the morning.
The contractor is told, not asked
Switch the reschedule notice on and the change is emailed the moment you make it. It stays off until you do, since not every shuffle is worth a message.
Nights sit on the board properly
A shift starting at eight and finishing at six is one block, not two halves either side of midnight.
Main let go on the corner in Drumcondra. Need two on the boards from now until the diggers are out. Anyone left?
Every crew is out and the phone goes again.
This trade runs out of people long before it runs out of hours. With nobody left, the page says so and takes the job as a request.
Requested, confirmed, on site, invoiced.
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
Built for the shifts you actually crew
Stop/go boards on a water main dig
A local authority contractor has the road open for three days. Day works, set hours, two on the boards throughout.
A night overlay on a national road
Eight at night to six in the morning under a lane closure. Different rate, different crew and different people willing to do it.
A town closure for a match day
The closure is the whole job. Barriers out early, roads back after, and the client is the council rather than a builder.
A burst main at eleven on a Sunday
Unplanned and urgent. The minimum charge is what stops a three-hour turnout being invoiced as three hours.
A crane lift on a housing estate
One lane gone for half a day while the frames go over the hoarding. Short, tightly timed and always booked late.
Pole replacement with the network crew
You crew a shift somebody else is running. Their hours, your people, your rate, and their job number on the record.
Footpath control for a concrete pour
Two hours of pedestrian and driveway management for a builder. The minimum applies, and he sees it before he books.
Convoy working on a regional road
Single-file behind a lead vehicle while the surfacing crew works. Days rather than hours, same faces each morning.
A fortnight of planned works
A crew booked out for two weeks of scheduled digs. One booking a day, the same names on each, one invoice at the end.
Paid for the shift, however it is paid.
Most of this work is invoiced to a contractor and settled by transfer. Record that by hand for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Cash and transfer are free
Mark the shift paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and it will stay that way.
Cards come with Pro
A council or an events company that would rather pay on a card gets a link, and the money is yours.
Split a long job across two
Ask for part of a fortnight of works up front and the rest at the end. Staged requests come with Pro, after the booking exists.

How far the van goes for a shift.
Past a point the travel quietly eats the shift. Set what each depot covers and the page declines work outside it.
Draw the patch around the depot
Addresses outside it are told at once, rather than after somebody has already pencilled a crew onto the rota for it.
Two depots, two patches
If you crew out of two yards, each keeps its own area and the shift falls to the yard that can genuinely cover it.
Same rate everywhere inside it
Inside your area the rate is the rate. Bookables adds nothing of its own for a longer run down the motorway.

One contractor, forty shifts a year.
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.
Their sites and their rates in one place
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.
Who you sent, and when
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.
The callout history beside it
Emergencies, planned works and the shifts they cancelled all sit on the same record, which is the argument at contract renewal.

Common questions.
Yes. Attach each service only to the team members who hold that card, and neither your booking page nor the assignment list will offer anybody else for the work.
No, and it is better to say so. There is no card register and no expiry alerting. What you get is control over who can be offered for which service, so whatever register you keep elsewhere is actually enforced when work is assigned.
You can. Put a minimum charge on the service and short shifts price at that figure, seen by the contractor before he commits rather than disputed 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 licence or permit number and the access arrangements sit on the booking alongside the site, so whoever leads the shift opens the job with the same information you had when you priced it. Bookables stores what you put on the record; it does not draw or check the plan.
