SOLUTION · RECURRING WORK
Repeat work, renewals and maintenance dates keep getting forgotten.
Repeat service should create the next due date and future action as part of completion instead of depending on a diary or annual spreadsheet review.
Build around this problemWHAT IT FEELS LIKE NOW
The problem is usually bigger than one missing feature.
Maintenance dates are stored in spreadsheets or calendar reminders separate from service history.
Customers are contacted too late — or not at all — when work becomes due.
The business cannot easily see upcoming recurring revenue or workload.
Repeat visits are recreated manually even though the customer and service are already known.
WHAT BUSINESSBUILDER SHOULD BUILD
A joined-up response to the problem.
Store the repeat rule against the customer, asset or service.
Calculate the next due date when the current work completes.
Create upcoming work early enough for the team to act.
Prepare customer contact or booking prompts at the right time.
Keep full service history with the same customer record.
