Post-Install Monitoring & Service

Q: Does a coordinator still need to be involved?

Yes, the coordinator can review or override any assignment, but routine triage and dispatch happen without manual entry.

Q: Can this work alongside our existing service desk and field service tools?

Yes, the automation connects to the ticketing and field service systems already in use rather than replacing them.

Q: What happens to our existing site history and ticket records?

Existing records stay in place and are referenced automatically during triage instead of being re-entered.

Q: What happens if a job needs a follow-up visit?

The system can reopen or create a related ticket so the follow-up visit is tracked with the same history as the original job.

Keep installed solar systems performing at spec and customers informed without staff chasing alerts manually.

About This Automation

Post-install monitoring turns fault and underperformance alerts into scheduled repairs, but sorting alerts, checking site history, and finding a free technician by hand slows response times. Delays between alert and dispatch frustrate customers and let small issues sit unresolved.

An automated version classifies each alert against site history, assigns and schedules the nearest qualified technician, and closes the loop with an invoice and customer summary once the job is done. Response times shrink and every step of the repair stays documented without manual re-entry.

Key features:

Classify incoming fault and underperformance alerts by severity automatically

Match each alert against site install date and warranty history

Assign the closest available qualified technician without manual lookup

Confirm a visit window with the customer automatically

Generate the service invoice as soon as the job closes

Send a customer summary and satisfaction survey after service

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Fault Alert Receivedtrigger

The automation watches the monitoring alert inbox and picks up new fault or underperformance messages the moment they arrive.

2. Classify Alert Severity

The Alert Triage checks site history and severity signals to decide how urgent the issue is.

3. Log Ticket

A ticket is created automatically with the alert details, site history, and assigned severity tag.

4. Assign Technician And Schedule

The Dispatch Scheduling checks technician availability, assigns the nearest qualified tech, and texts the customer to confirm a visit window.

5. Create Job

A job order is generated with site notes and warranty status attached so the technician arrives fully briefed.

6. Technician Completes Service Onsite

The technician performs the repair and logs findings and parts used directly into the job record.

7. Generate Invoice And Close Ticket

The Billing & Follow-up creates the invoice from the completed job notes and closes the linked support ticket.

8. Send Follow-up Survey

The customer receives a summary of the fix and a short satisfaction survey the same day the job closes.
