Electricians, plumbers and builders run several jobs a week with a small team who are rarely in the same place. Job details get passed on by text, photos stay on one person's phone and the office cannot see what is finished.
How trades and small contractors set up Tandem App
- Use #jobs-this-week with a task per job, assigned to whoever is going, with the address and access notes in the description.
- Add a checklist for materials so the van is loaded the night before.
- Post before and after photos in the task comments and keep certificates and quotes in Docs folders by customer.
- Install Tandem from the browser on each phone so the team gets push notifications when a job changes.
Clients and outside people
A regular subcontractor, such as a plasterer, can join #jobs-this-week as a Full access guest. Small teams of up to 3 people can use the Free plan.
