Why leading landscaping firms trust Re-flow for their field management

Landscaping professionals play a huge role in shaping our environment, from enhancing sustainability to ensuring the beauty and safety of our shared spaces.??

While we could go on about the benefits of Re-flow all day, we believe our clients’ experiences speak for themselves.??

So, without further ado, here are five reasons why landscaping companies have chosen Re-flow to manage their field operations:??

Improved Standards of Compliance?

With strict health and safety requirements, Taylormade needed to create forms that ensured compliance. They use Re-flow’s customisable form builder to design forms to meet specific client needs, to simplify and consolidate processes, and to provide consistent, reportable data.?

“As a subcontractor, we've had to create forms to meet [client] health and safety criteria. And every morning my operatives do a start-of-day briefing, which we've made using the Re-flow form builder.??

“We try to make it as easy and as user-friendly as possible while making sure we hit the parameters set by [the clients].??

“From a health and safety perspective we can give the operatives all the tools they need on the tablet using the app, and I know that I can pull up that report to look at consistency and compliance on our jobs and then showcase that to [our clients] at our quarterly reviews.”?

Flexible scheduling powered by automations and database access?

Facing constant scheduling changes, Shines Environmental needed a piece of software that made updating jobs and notifying their operatives easy and instantaneous. Re-flow’s real-time scheduler keeps track of assets and operatives as changes happen. Its automations also notify relevant teams when changes are made. Overall, it enables rapid adjustments to jobs and eliminates errors, confusion, and down time.??

?“We're in a very fast-moving environment where we're relying on other trades to be ready for us. That means that day to day or even hour by hour, our work schedules for that day or week are changing. With Re-flow we're able to move jobs around very quickly, reallocating work to guys whilst they're out on the field.”?

Unified operations via a single app in real time?

Before their digital transformation, Tony Benger Landscaping dealt with scattered information across their operations, but Re-flow’s centralised cloud-based platform eliminated paperwork, ensured data accuracy, and improved communication.?

“With fifty plus landscapers running around four counties and a satellite yard in Cornwall, we had a lot of people to worry about and we really needed to improve communication. Re-flow has done that and more. We put everything on Re-flow – risk assessments, method statements, accident and near miss forms, vehicle checks, toolbox talks, drawings, playground inspections – everything you can think of.”?

Operatives having online and offline access to everything they need on their phones?

Golden Tree Surgeons faced disruptions in remote areas with poor connectivity. Re-flow’s offline functionality allowed operatives to capture data and complete forms without interruptions.??

“Re-flow kind of revolutionised our lives for us and the guys that we've got on site. It makes everything so much easier. Everything that you need is at the touch of a button and easy to refer to, whether that’s surveys or some RAMS that have been carried out prior to us arriving on site.?

“Re-flow negates the need to ring the office and wait 5–10 minutes for your next task. All job information is on the app, and you can effortlessly move onto another one. And if you've got no signal, you can save the documents and they’ll be submitted when you go online.??

“I would definitely recommend Re-flow – it's a really good system. When using it, everybody knows what they’re doing.”?

Automations that seamlessly and dramatically reducing admin time?

Shines Environmental reduced their high administrative burden by adopting Re-flow’s automated workflows, allowing staff to focus on critical tasks and boost their productivity.?

“We've had a lot of positive impacts from the use of Re-flow. The system has simplified the way that we audit our works. It's made it a lot quicker as well.??

“We're also able to track our vehicles and our vehicle data on the software, so every week the guys will carry out a vehicle check, checking tyre pressures and oil levels and things. They fill that in on Re-flow, that all then gets fed back automatically into the system. We can check on any vehicle at any time.”?
