Why invest in Resource Planning Software?

When capacity and demand are planned in one place, you prevent overloads, reduce idle time and keep every SLA achievable.

Fewer bottlenecks. Skills, certifications and shift rules ensure the right people and equipment are available when needed.
Faster allocation. Auto-suggested slots and drag-and-drop planning shorten time-to-assign.
Lower costs. Route optimisation and overtime controls reduce travel and after-hours work.
Lean coordination. Templates, capacity views and validations cut planning effort by 40–60%.
More on-time delivery. Travel-aware plans and SLA windows reduce overruns by up to 30%.
Revenue & margin lift. More first-time-right visits and captured extras often yield 10–20% growth within 12–24 months.

Don't take our word for it

„The personal highlight of our work with Handyman is that, in addition to the installed base, GSGroup has developed a room planner plug-in for us, which helps us immensley with the internal maintenance of our properties. The room planner provides a graphical site plan in which the locations of the objects in the individual rooms can be seen, and there are plans of individual systems including their components. The whole thing is dynamics so that all objects can be placed individually.“

"We needed support in terms of digitalisation and were in need of a software that is modular and covers every part of our requirements - Handyman looked promising at first sight. No one in our industry has a comparable system to Handyman. In the end, it helped us to score points in an important tender and win the customer for us."

„In addition to service and maintenance, the topic of "interface" was a decisive factor for handyman. We have connected our ERP system SelectLine ot the Handyman software and are thrilled with the seamless integration. The interface offers a convenient handling of master data maintenance and simplifies the invoicing of oders enormously.“

"Handyman offered us fast and efficient integration into Navision. We absolutely depended on this in the process flow. The service technicians can now can now process their service orders transparently and structured in Handyman and synchronise them directly with Navision. All times can be checked and can be checked and, if necessary, reworked super-fast by the clerks. invoicing can be carried out. In the past, there were always problems with meeting various payment deadlines, but that can no longer happen to us. can no longer happen to us."
