15 Minutes Per Week Saves Thousands

The 15‑Minute Weekly Inventory Check That Saves $1,000s in Lost Parts

It’s not the big mistakes that quietly drain your profits — it’s the little ones.
Like that $12 part you thought you had in stock… until your tech is standing in a customer’s driveway without it.


Multiply that by a few jobs a month, and you’re bleeding time, fuel, and money.


The 15‑Minute Process:

  1. Pick the same day/time each week.
  2. Scan your shelves, bins, and truck stock.
  3. Note what’s low or missing.

Step 3: Adjust Scheduling Windows

Instead of “We’ll be there sometime between 8 and 12,” tighten your windows and plan routes so techs aren’t criss‑crossing the city. Customers love the accuracy, and you save fuel + time.


Step 4: Use Live Traffic Data

Apps like Google Maps or Waze aren’t just for finding addresses — they can help you reroute in real time to dodge delays. Build this into your dispatch process.
