FRWD Installer App — Feature Scope

Essential (Must Have for Launch)

  • Daily job list by team (clipboard replacement)
  • Job detail view (address, customer, contact info, work to be performed)
  • Navigate to job site (maps integration)
  • Map showing all jobs by team
  • Call customer (tap to call)
  • Line item status updates (Complete / Incomplete / Complete with Additional Work)
  • Incomplete reason — mandatory categorization + required note
  • Photo capture (before/after/issue photos attached to job)
  • Notes on line items and job (tech comments, persisted across visits)
  • Offline mode with sync when back online
  • Real-time updates (status changes reflect on office calendar instantly)
  • Service ticket creation (digital, replaces paper)
  • Delivery ticket creation (digital, replaces paper)
  • Import service/delivery line items from uploaded xlsx or docx files
  • Link follow-up visits to master record / parent PO
  • Transcribed voice/audio notes (record instead of type)
  • Auth persistence (stay logged in on phone/tablet)
  • Photo capture or gallery upload (camera roll, or live camera)
  • Homeowner/builder electronic signature capture
  • Equipment/special needs flagging (visible on job card before driving out)
  • Spanish/English translation (UI language toggle)
  • Photo type requirements (enforce specific photo categories before completing)
  • Completion status detail (structured "why incomplete" categories)
  • "Complete with additional work" status (triggers new order process, closes tech's responsibility)

Phase 2 — High Value

  • Billing handoff (completed tickets route to Nikki/billing)
  • Image markup/annotation (draw on photos to highlight issues)
  • Multi-job per address awareness (group/flag jobs sharing an address)
  • Multiple contacts per job (builder, homeowner, superintendent)
  • Job flagging (digital "turn clipboard sideways" — parts not ready, needs attention)
  • Track Location en-route on Calendar Map — use GPS to see techs in semi-real-time

Future Ideas (Phase 3+)

  • Voice-powered form filling (speak to fill out fields via AI transcription)
  • Video capture (large file/upload challenges to solve first)
  • Product/parts checklist with inventory lookup (100k+ SKUs — needs data source decision)
  • Service ticket coding for reporting (adjustment frequency, broken items, tech performance)
  • Subcontractor communication portal (external user access)
  • Due In / product tracking (grey to blue when product arrives at warehouse)
  • External communication to homeowners (appointment reminders, tech arrival ETA)
