Field Assist™

by Parcelink™
Governed AI for two-man delivery & installation

Right first time, at every door.

Field Assist puts verified, model-specific guidance in every crew’s ear. Agency, subcontracted or peak — every crew hits your best fitter’s standard, and never guesses on safety.

The problem

The doorstep is your only touchpoint — and your least controlled.

Every install is run by your most variable resource, in a stranger’s hallway, with no expert in the room.

  • A second van out. An aborted drop means a second two-man crew, a blown SLA, and a customer weeks without a working machine.
  • Quality craters at peak. Your greenest agency crews handle the most jobs on Black Friday and in January — exactly when scrutiny is highest.
  • Warranty-voiding errors. Transit bolts left in, a hot feed on cold, a mis-fitted waste pipe — each turns a delivery into a claim.
  • You own the 1-star. Customers blame the retailer, not the carrier — and repeat failures convert straight into SLA service credits.
The solution

The expert in the room — for every crew, on every model.

A voice-first assistant built for the actual doorstep: hands full, hallway noisy, model unfamiliar.

  • Scan the rating plate. It IDs the exact appliance in seconds — even one the crew has never seen — so guidance is model-specific.
  • Hands stay on the machine. A premium voice walks the crew through it while both hands hold 70kg — no propping a phone to read a PDF.
  • The genuine OEM manual. It opens the appliance’s real manual and pulls the one detail that matters — transit bolts, drain height, door reversal.
  • Never bluffs on safety. Verified when certain, flagged unverified when not, and a firm stop at gas, water and electrical.

Identify, guide, flag — in the time it takes to unbox.

Grounded & governed

Never-guess by design. Human-approved by default.

Safety and liability aren’t a disclaimer here — they’re the architecture.

Verified
Trusted when certain, flagged unverified when not — it never presents a guess as fact on wet, electrical or gas work.
Approved
Every capture routes to the office to check, archive and approve — a trail where each trusted answer traces to who signed it.
Scoped
Access is scoped by trade — Core (wet), Electric, Gas — so each crew works its lane and stops at what it can’t legally touch.

The outcome

Right first time protects the number you’re measured on.

The same reliable doorstep defends the operator’s contract and the subcontractor’s next route.

  • For the operator. Cleaner installs protect first-time-fix, completion and damage rates — and the Trustpilot score your brand owns, subcontracted or not.
  • For the crew. Right-first-time protects the customer rating that pay and the next route ride on — kept bonuses, no callbacks.
  • A compounding asset. Today’s approved capture becomes every crew’s trusted answer — knowledge that improves instead of degrading, and survives churn.
  • Evidenced, not claimed. Each install, WEEE takeaway and connect-and-test leaves an audit trail — cover in a damage dispute, proof of paid service.
The pain it heals

Three doorstep failures. One fix.

Across UK installs the same three complaints recur — each a knowledge gap about the model in front of the crew, not a work-ethic one. Field Assist closes all three.

First-time-fix ≈75–80% is a cross-industry field-service benchmark (Aberdeen, IBM) — and a failed first visit averages 1.6 further visits to close (Aberdeen); £ figures are illustrative. Quotes are real UK install reviews, shown as recurring themes across operators.

Why now

Peak is coming — and doorstep AI is now a governance question.

When volume spikes, your newest crews get your toughest jobs. And a wrong AI answer is now legally yours — not the bot’s.

Peak
A predictable, expensive quality dip. Every surge rushes green agency crews onto your most complex installs.
Liability
The question is settled. Courts hold the operator, not the bot, liable for a wrong AI answer (Moffatt v. Air Canada, 2024) — govern it or own it.
Ready
Drops into your app. White-label and trade-scoped, it maps to how crews are already role-scoped.
How it’s priced

Priced to the re-attend it prevents — not per login.

A category no one else occupies: governed, never-guess doorstep guidance. So it’s priced like risk cover, not commodity software.

Per crew
A seat per crew on the road — or per-login for intermittent agency labour, the model the enterprise already buys for its contractors.
Embed
A platform fee plus a white-label SDK license for operators who embed it under their own brand at scale.
ROI
It pays for itself on one avoided re-attend. A single repeat visit it prevents covers a crew for months — the return is the failure it stops.
Moat
The only field AI that refuses to guess. Unverified kept apart from safety-approved, human-reviewed — governance you can price as liability reduction.
Next step

Put your best fitter in every crew’s ear.

An SDK-grade embed for operators — and the doorstep expert for the crews who work for them.

  • White-label SDK. Embeds in your app, under your brand, scoped to your trades — the peak quality lever you can’t hire for.
  • Start with a pilot. Prove the loop on a set slice of models and crews; measure first-time-fix and callbacks against your own baseline.
