HVAC & Refrigeration Services
How an HVAC and refrigeration services company recovered an estimated 5,200+ hours per year across job creation, invoicing, and estimation with 3 specialised AI workflows.
What this HVAC company was dealing with before AI.
The team was spending the majority of their working week on repetitive administrative tasks that followed the same patterns every time. These weren't complex decisions requiring human judgement. They were predictable, rule-based processes that happened to consume significant hours.
Inbound Job Overload
40+ hours per week processing approximately 400 jobs per month from email. Manual data entry into field management system for every single job.
Invoice Processing Backlog
30+ hours per week processing supplier invoices, cross-referencing with existing jobs, and creating categorised bills with no duplicate detection.
Slow Estimation & Quoting
30+ hours per week analysing requirements, referencing historical pricing, and generating detailed estimates with appropriate markup.
What the AI Roadmap uncovered.
We started with a 2-week process audit. Mapped every repeatable workflow, timed them, and quantified the cost. We spoke to the people doing the work, not just management.
The audit revealed an estimated 5,200+ hrs/yr being consumed by processes that followed predictable patterns. These were the same steps, executed the same way, hundreds of times per month.
The estimated potential: $160K+ /yr in estimated annual savings by automating the highest-impact workflows first.
3 AI workflows. Built from their SOPs.
Each workflow was designed from the team's actual standard operating procedures. Connected to their existing tools. Human checkpoints at every critical decision point. Nothing goes out without approval.
Inbound Job Creation Automation
Monitors email for job requests, extracts details, auto-creates jobs in field management system with priority and technician assignments. Estimated 40+ hours per week automated.
