Pest management, planned

Every visit, on the right day, with the right technician

Q-Zone Scheduler plans recurring pest-management visits for every client on the book and puts a named PMP against each one. Contracts, client contacts, service history and the week ahead all read from the same records.

Capabilities

What the scheduler actually does

One consistent interface over the whole cycle — from a client's contract to the visit that gets logged against it. No side spreadsheets, no re-keying.

01

The schedule board

The week, at a glance

Every recurring visit sits on a weekday with a lead PMP and any support assigned alongside. Filter by region, client or technician and the board answers "who is where, when" in one read.

  • Lead and support assignment per visit
  • Locking, so a settled week stops moving
  • Search and filter across the whole book
02

Assisted planning

The next round, proposed

The generator reads the schedules already on record and proposes the next round, spreading the load rather than piling a region onto one day. Every proposal is reviewed before it is committed.

  • Daily load capped, overflow shifted to adjacent days
  • Client-specific rules honoured automatically
  • Weekend scheduling limited to the regions that allow it
03

Clients and contracts

One record per client

Companies, sites, contact people and contract dates in one place, with the client's own visits hanging off the same record. Contract expiry is watched rather than remembered.

  • Contact people held per client, not per note
  • Renewal warnings at 60, 30, 14 and 7 days
  • Region and company grouping across the book
04

Documents on demand

Print-ready, straight from the data

Schedules and client lists export as PDF or Excel from the live records, so what goes to a client or an auditor is what the system actually holds that morning.

  • PDF schedules for the field
  • Excel exports for the office
  • Emailed to the right desk automatically
The Platform

Six modules, one login

The same modules that appear in the rail once you sign in. Reading is open to every signed-in account; writing is a separate permission, so most people see the operation without being able to change it.

Schedules

Every recurring visit, the weekday it falls on, and the technicians assigned to it. The heart of the system.

Board · Assignment · Locking

Clients

Sites, regions, contract dates and the contact people who actually answer the phone, kept on the client rather than in a mailbox.

Sites · Contracts · Contacts

PMPs

The field technicians. Each client carries its lead PMP, and new visits inherit that assignment instead of being allocated twice.

Technicians · Leads · Support

Directory

Companies and contact people across the whole book, so a group with twelve sites reads as one relationship rather than twelve.

Companies · Contact people

Dashboard

Coverage by day and by region, workload per technician, and what is coming up — read from the live schedule, not a monthly report.

Coverage · Load · Trends

Staff & Security

Accounts, write permissions and two-factor enrolment. Provisioned by an editor — there is no public sign-up to this portal.

How it works

From contract to completed visit

Four steps. The system does the routine parts so nobody is rebuilding next week's plan from last week's printout.

  1. 1

    The client goes on the book

    Site, region, contract dates and contacts are recorded once, and a lead PMP is set on the client — not on each individual visit.

  2. 2

    Visits are scheduled

    Each recurring visit lands on a weekday and inherits the client's lead technician. Support can be added where a site needs two.

  3. 3

    The round is reviewed and locked

    Once a week is agreed it is locked, so it stops drifting. A client whose visits are all locked is marked settled automatically.

  4. 4

    It goes out, and stays on record

    Schedules export as PDF or Excel and the changes behind them are versioned, so what was planned — and by whom — can be shown later.

Security

Built to be trusted with client data

Client sites, contracts and contacts are commercially sensitive. The controls below are on by default — not options somebody has to remember to switch on.

Two-factor, enforced
An account without a second factor cannot reach any page but its own setup screen. Backup codes cover a lost device without opening a side door.
Write access is separate
Reading the portal and changing it are two different permissions. Every write is denied unless the account is explicitly granted it, whatever else that account is.
No public sign-up
Accounts are provisioned by an editor. Failed sign-ins are logged, repeated failures lock the account, and the attempt is mailed to IT rather than sitting in a file nobody reads.
Sessions that expire
Sessions time out on a hard six-hour limit, and every session for an account can be invalidated at once when a password or a device changes hands.

Policies and guidance

The standards the portal is run to, and the material staff are pointed at when they join.

Data policies
How client and staff data is collected, who may see it, and how long it is kept.
Terms & conditions
System usage, staff responsibilities, access rights and what happens when they are misused.
Security policy
Password standards, two-factor enrolment, and how to report a device or an account you no longer control.
Common questions

Before you sign in

The questions the support desk answers most. If yours is not here, the team is one call away.

Who gets an account?

Office staff who plan or review the schedule. Accounts are created by an editor and tied to your work email — there is no sign-up page, which is what keeps the account list and the staff list the same list.

I can see everything but I cannot save anything.

That is by design. Reading the portal and writing to it are separate permissions: your account can see the whole operation without being able to change it. An editor can grant write access from the staff module.

I have lost my authenticator device.

Use one of the backup codes issued when two-factor was set up. Each code works once. If those are gone too, contact IT and your second factor will be reset after your identity is confirmed.

Can a locked schedule still be changed?

Locking is what stops a settled week drifting, so it takes a deliberate unlock by someone with write access. A client whose visits are all locked is marked settled automatically — that status is derived from the visits, never set by hand.

Does the generator schedule anything on its own?

No. It proposes the next round from the schedules already on record, applies the daily load cap and the client and region rules, and hands the result back for review. Nothing is committed until someone with write access commits it.

We're here to help

Sign-in trouble, a schedule that will not save, or an account that needs provisioning — the same desk handles all three.
