Customers frequently reach out asking when a paint crew will arrive or how much longer a job will take. Answering requires checking a schedule, messaging the crew lead, and waiting on a reply before any answer can be given.
An automated version reads crew check-ins and the job schedule to calculate a real-time arrival window without waiting on manual back-and-forth. It sends the update to the customer, logs the conversation, and issues a follow-up automatically if the crew falls further behind.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
An inbound message asking for an arrival time kicks off the workflow automatically.
The system looks up the assigned crew and scheduled arrival window for that customer's job.
The automation reads the crew's latest check-in to see how far along the current job is.
When the crew is running behind, the automation recalculates a realistic new arrival window.
When the crew is on schedule, a confirmation of the original arrival time is sent immediately.
The revised arrival window is texted straight to the customer.
The ETA given and the reason for any delay are recorded against the customer's record automatically.
