"The productivity improvement gained from using Aeromark’s real-time service management platform has enabled each of our engineers to increase the number of service and maintenance jobs they complete from three to more than seven, per day on average, increasing productivity by 146%."

The Aeromark system provides Greggs Shop maintenance operations team with a single centralised solution for asset management, dynamic real time scheduling of proactive and reactive work, integrated mobile workflows, GPS vehicle tracking and seamless integration with subcontractors.

The system is also simpler and more efficient for shop staff to report issues and request engineer callouts.

Previously, shops had to ring a busy central contact centre which handles 1000s of calls each week. Even relatively minor maintenance, such as a broken door handle, is important to report in order to maintain good looking shops and an exceptional customer experience.

The Future

Today, all Greggs managed shops have access to a self-service portal to log a maintenance call in a few clicks. Every asset is labelled and scanned for identification with a dropdown selector for problem codes.

The system’s convenience and ease of use has seen an increase in number of jobs logged by staff for proactive maintenance while at the same time making Greggs planning team and engineers more efficient.

"Aeromark’s multi-intervention feature provides us with full visibility of all jobs open at every shop. Now when we schedule work, the system selects the most efficient route and shows us other jobs that have been logged at the shop so that engineers can complete them all in one visit. It cuts out multiple engineer callouts to the same site and travel time backwards and forwards between sites.

This means our engineers’ time is optimised; planning and scheduling is simpler, making us a more efficient team. Service can’t be static. A huge benefit of the Aeromark system for Greggs is that it’s exceptionally configurable which enables us to continuously improve our service management operation. Our next step is to integrate Aeromark’s parts ordering and automated van stock replenishment system.

When engineers need additional parts, they initiate a initiate a parts request via their Smartphone which triggers a requirement for the planning desk to place an order which will be delivered to the required shop.  When the parts are received, the shop updates the system via their self-service portal which sends the job for re-scheduling to fit parts.

 

"The scale and growth ambitions of Greggs and their desire to continuously improve efficiency and customer experience meant they required a future-proof platform for their service management operation. Both teams have worked exceptionally well together to deliver these impressive results over a number of years, and we are all looking forward to the next phase of the project"
