Housing That Moves with the Crew

The challenge

Each week, hundreds of technicians and rotating work teams moved between remote job sites on 24-hour notice.A Field Services Coordinator managing these technicians across remote sites struggled with a manual, chaotic housing process.Constant last-minute bookings, fluctuating rates, and zero visibility into spend or crew distribution caused delays, missed SLAs, and operational bottlenecks, this created major gaps in field deployment logistics and workforce coordination. Housing, instead of supporting field mobility, housing became the weakest link in day-to-day coordination.
