Full Visibility Into Your Field Operations
When you are managing multiple tree care crews spread across a service area, the biggest challenge is knowing what is happening in the field at any given moment. Which crew just finished their morning job? Who is closest to the emergency call that just came in? Is the crew assigned to the aerial removal certified and equipped for that work? Without a centralized crew management system, these questions lead to phone calls, delays, and guesswork. Arbor Dash tree care crew management software gives you complete, real-time visibility into every crew, every certification, and every piece of equipment in your operation.
Crew assignment in Arbor Dash is tightly integrated with the scheduling calendar. When you schedule a job, you assign it to a specific crew based on their skills, certifications, availability, and current location. The GPS tracking feature shows you exactly where each crew is on a live map, so dispatching becomes instant and intelligent. If a priority call comes in, you can see which crew is closest, check that they have the right certifications for the work, and reassign them with a drag-and-drop. Crew members receive updated schedules on their devices in real time, so there are no miscommunications or missed assignments.
Beyond day-to-day dispatching, Arbor Dash crew management includes robust certification and equipment tracking tools. Every team member's ISA certifications, pesticide applicator licenses, CDL status, and other credentials are stored with expiration dates and automatic renewal reminders. You will never send an uncertified worker to a job that requires specific qualifications. Equipment tracking lets you assign trucks, chippers, stump grinders, and other assets to specific crews or jobs, so you always know where your equipment is and whether it is due for maintenance. Efficiency metrics help you identify which crews are the most productive and where operational bottlenecks exist, so you can make data-driven decisions about staffing and resource allocation.

How It Works
- Set up your crews — Add team members, assign them to crews, and upload their certifications with expiration dates. Arbor Dash alerts you before any credential expires.
- Assign jobs from the calendar — When scheduling a job, select a crew based on skills, location, and availability. The assignment syncs to crew devices instantly.
- Track in real time — View crew GPS locations on a live map. See who is en route, on site, or between jobs. Dispatch the nearest qualified crew to emergency calls.
- Measure and improve — Review crew efficiency metrics like jobs completed per day, average job duration, and drive time to identify opportunities for improvement.
