How Sherpa Pros locks crew coverage five days out
A commercial sub was losing days chasing skilled labor through group texts. We built a B2B intake that matches open shifts to vetted trades and confirms coverage before the lookahead locks.
Coverage by group text
Filling open shifts meant blasting group texts and hoping the right trades answered in time. Coverage stayed uncertain until the last minute, and gaps turned into punch-list surprises on site.
The chase burned days that should have gone to the work itself.
A matched, confirmed intake
B2B shift intake
Open shifts enter one intake instead of scattered texts, with the requirements attached.
Matching to vetted trades
Each open shift is matched to vetted trades who fit the scope, not whoever happens to reply first.
Coverage before lock
Coverage is confirmed before the lookahead locks, so the schedule reflects labor that is actually committed.
Committed, not hoped-for
Crew coverage is confirmed roughly five days out, and fewer gaps reach the field as punch-list surprises. The lookahead means what it says because the labor behind it is locked.
