Field Service Management

NetSuite Field Service Management (FSM), formerly NextService, helps you coordinate and track services performed outside the office, like repairs, installations, and maintenance. FSM is an end-to-end solution that helps field service companies:

Key Benefits of FSM

  • Drag-and-drop scheduling - Assign tasks to technicians and adjust workloads by moving tasks on the Schedule Board. You can check technician availability instantly, with no need for spreadsheet or email updates.

  • Real-time mobile access for technicians - Technicians can get task details, update statuses, and access customer and asset history from anywhere with FSM Mobile. All updates sync directly with NetSuite.

  • Automate inventory and asset management - Track spare parts, van inventory, and customer equipment in real time. When technicians use inventory during a task, it's recorded right away so your stock information stays accurate.

  • Task and job lifecycle tracking - Create, assign, monitor, and track tasks for field service jobs. Schedulers get live updates as tasks move through the workflow.

  • Integrated customer and asset records - View comprehensive information about customers, service histories, and supported assets without toggling between systems.

  • Streamlined dispatch and task monitoring - Schedulers assign, reschedule, or reassign tasks in one place, and then track progress and completion on one dashboard.

  • Consistent data capture and reporting - Make data collection consistent, across the field and office, so customer billing and reports are always accurate.

  • Offline task access and sync - Technicians can continue working and updating tasks without network coverage. Updates sync automatically when they're back online.

  • Configurable - Customize FSM to meet your requirements using the Field Service Configuration Record.

  • End-to-end visibility - Managers get real-time updates on technician locations, task progress, and what parts are used, helping them run operations smoothly and provide better service.
