Is BigChange only for small drainage companies?

BigChange is for organisations of all sizes and will scale as your operations do. We’re making it our mission to help everyone be successful, which is why we work with thousands of field service companies worldwide to make their businesses grow stronger.

What health and safety features does BigChange’s drainage service management software include?

With our platform, compliance needn’t be a worry. To ensure your operatives are following industry best practices, you can produce mandatory risk assessment and workflow documents that they complete via the mobile app. Operatives won’t be able to fill out timesheets until the health and safety forms are filled out, giving you peace of mind that they’ll carry out all work safely. Plus, you can create a digital library for your COSHH sheets and guides for easy reference whenever your team needs them, wherever they are.

What is the purpose of BigChange’s mobile application?

The mobile app gives your drainage engineers access to all the vital information they need from the palm of their hands. Whether they want to view their schedule or individual job details, complete a risk assessment, communicate with your back-office staff or put together a digital invoice, it just takes a few taps.
