The Scheduling Struggle Every Trades Business Knows

If you run a trades business, you know schedules are everything. Most of us start out with Google Calendar or Outlook. They’re fine for basic jobs, but as your team grows, so does the chaos. Double bookings, missed jobs, and endless back-and-forth become part of the daily grind. Suddenly, what used to work just isn’t cutting it.

Introducing Intrflex: Scheduling, Sorted

Intrflex was built to take the headache out of job scheduling for trades teams. It’s more than a digital diary. It’s your control centre for getting every job, tech, and task organised. No more cobbling together calendars, spreadsheets, and job sheets. With Intrflex, you get a clear, all-in-one view. Schedules, jobs, resources, and teams are all in one place, right on your phone or desktop.

Who Benefits from Better Scheduling? Everyone.

Intrflex isn’t just for the person in the office. It’s designed for everyone on your team:

  • Office staff can manage shifts, holidays, and training in a couple of clicks.
  • Sales can book meetings and site visits without the usual ping-pong of emails.
  • Field engineers get job details, locations, and updates straight to their phone, even offline.
  • Managers can see what’s happening across every site, spot gaps, and keep workloads balanced.

Forget scattered info. Intrflex makes sure everyone’s on the same page.

Make Every Minute Count

The old way of scheduling wastes time, yours and your team’s. Intrflex lays out who’s doing what, when, and for how long. Need to build in travel time or buffer between jobs? Easy. Need to shift jobs on the fly? One click and everyone’s updated. Less confusion, more work done, and fewer mistakes.

Location-Based Scheduling Because Time Isn’t Everything

In trades, jobs aren’t just about when. They’re about where. Intrflex lets you plan jobs by location so you can group site visits, cut down travel, and spend less time stuck in traffic. Whether you’re running a plumbing firm, cleaning crew, landscaping team, or construction business, this means smoother days and lower costs.

Fast Changes, No Panic

We all know things change. Someone’s off sick, a client cancels, or an urgent job pops up. With Intrflex, changes are quick and clear. Drag, drop, update. Your team gets notified instantly. No more “I didn’t get the memo.”

Tailored for Your Trade

Every business has its quirks. That’s why Intrflex can handle complex crew setups, recurring jobs, equipment bookings, and more. Whether you’re running a cleaning rota, scheduling installs, or keeping tabs on multiple job sites, Intrflex adapts to fit your way of working.

Payroll, HR, and Scheduling All Connected

Scheduling isn’t just about jobs. It’s about your people too. Intrflex connects the dots between scheduling, timesheets, and payroll. Hours worked, overtime, and holidays are automatically tracked and ready for payroll. Less admin, fewer errors, and your team gets paid right.

Real Trades, Real Results

Don’t just take our word for it. Plumbing firms have cut admin by 40 percent. Landscaping companies see fewer mistakes and happier customers. When your schedule runs smoothly, your whole business feels the benefit.

Here’s how a typical day looks:

  • 8:00 AM: Admin checks and updates the day’s schedule in minutes.
  • 9:00 AM: Engineers get job updates on their phones, ready to go.

All this happens without the usual stress or endless phone calls.

Get Even More Out of Intrflex

A few tips to keep things running like clockwork:

  • Keep schedules up-to-date because real-time changes mean fewer surprises.
  • Use colour coding to spot urgent jobs or departments at a glance.

  • Ask your team for feedback because nobody knows the job like they do.
