Dspatch for hotel housekeeping

"Is 214 ready yet?" The front desk should not have to ask.

Housekeeping still runs on a departures list printed at 7 AM, a radio and a whiteboard nobody updates, while guests wait in the lobby for rooms that were finished an hour ago. With Dspatch the front desk ticks or pastes the day's departures and stayovers, every clean is created and assigned at once, and a finished checkout clean marks the room clean.

Full access for 14 days. No card to start. Crews use the Dspatch app in English or Spanish.

A guest forgives a lot. Waiting in the lobby for a room that was cleaned but never marked is not one of them. Here is what goes wrong, and what Dspatch does about each.

The departures list printed at 7 and wrong by 9
Tick the day's departures and stayovers on the housekeeping board, or paste the room numbers from your property management system: 'Room 101', 'Rm 204' and '#305' all match. Checkout cleans and stayover service are created and assigned at once, and unticking a room cancels a clean nobody started.
"Is 214 ready?" all afternoon
Ticking a departure marks the room dirty, and a finished checkout clean marks it clean. A supervisor can mark a room inspected or out of order, and the board counts the rooms in each state.
Stayover service lost on a full house
Stayovers are their own service, with their own checklist, time, price and pay, so the daily refresh is planned instead of squeezed in between checkouts.
No record of who cleaned which room
Each clean is a visit with the attendant's check-in, the room's checklist and photos, so a complaint about 312 starts with the record instead of a guess.
Maintenance reported to whoever walks past
Attendants report a broken AC or a leak as a maintenance or urgent note from the room. It reaches the office at once and stays open until someone marks it resolved.
Billing the hotel and paying attendants from two spreadsheets
Set a price per checkout clean and per stayover, and a flat pay or each attendant's own rate. The same visits invoice the hotel and fill payables.

Field service management software for hotel housekeeping, end to end.

Dspatch replaces the spreadsheet, the group chat, the invoicing app and the payroll export with one record of every visit your hotel housekeeping crews make. Here is what is inside.

Scheduling and dispatch

Recurring schedules at any cadence with end dates, one-off jobs, crew assignment, multiple locations and customer groups. The calendar builds itself; the office sees today at a glance.

Crew app with GPS check-in

iOS and Android. Today's visits, directions, check-in and check-out with the distance from the site, checklists, photos, notes, time off and pay. In English or Spanish.

Proof of service

Every visit keeps its time, location, completed checklist and before-and-after photos. Late or off-site check-ins alert the office within the hour. Customers can see the record.

Quotes and e-signatures

Quotes with deposits, approved and signed online, converted into the job the moment the customer says yes.

Invoicing and online payments

Invoices created from completed visits, per visit or on a billing cycle. Card and bank payment from a private link, saved cards, automatic reminders, and disputes handled with the proof attached.

Client portal

Visit history with proof, invoices, payments, a saved card and a place to rate the work, so customers stop calling to ask.

Crew pay and onboarding

Pay by job rate, by the hour or by the period, computed from the same clock records the invoices use. Onboarding documents, e-signatures and IDs in the app. Contractors and employees, both.

Reports and Coach Ken

Profit per customer, a real P&L, expected cash, crew retention and business valuation, plus Coach Ken, an AI operating partner who reads your numbers and writes the Monday brief.

Not another app. An operating partner for your hotel housekeeping business.

Dspatch makes running a service business easy, seamless, informed and intelligent. It does the office work that used to need a person, catches problems before you would have seen them, and is the best place to understand your money. When your business succeeds, so does ours, so that is what it is built for.

Easy. The work that used to need an office hire happens on its own: the schedule builds itself, late check-ins alert you, invoices go out when the work completes, reminders chase payment, crew pay is computed from the clock. Dspatch does the job of a scheduler, a billing desk, a collections call and a controller for less than a week of one person's pay each month.

Seamless. One record from the first quote to the bank. The quote becomes the job, the job becomes the invoice, the payment reconciles itself, the clock becomes crew pay. Nothing is retyped, nothing falls between apps, and crews, customers and the office all see the same visit.

Informed. The best place to run your finances: a real profit and loss with bad debt in it, profit per customer and per visit, cash expected and when it lands, payables, crew retention and what the business is worth. Built on earned revenue and verified payments, so the numbers are the truth and not what happened to get deposited.

Intelligent. Coach Ken reads every number every day and tells you before you would have noticed: the account that is slipping, the crew member who started running late, the customer paying slower, the unbilled work sitting there, the goal that is off pace. Every Monday he writes the brief with the one thing to do this week.

Specific things, not adjectives.

What Dspatch can claim for hotel housekeeping today, as it works in the product.

Questions hotel and housekeeping teams ask.

Does it connect to our property management system?

Not directly today. Tick the rooms on the board or paste the room numbers from your PMS's departures and stayover report; Dspatch matches 'Room 101', 'Rm 101' and '#101'.

How do we add 120 rooms?

Type ranges: '101-130, 201-230, Suite A' creates every room at once.

What if the front desk unticks a room?

Its clean is cancelled if nobody has started it, and the attendant is told.

We are a cleaning company that services hotels. Does it fit?

Yes. The hotel is your customer, its rooms are on one property, and each clean carries your price and your attendant's pay, so you invoice the hotel and pay your team from the same visits.

Can attendants use it in Spanish?

Yes. The crew app runs in the language set on each person's profile, and Spanish is the first after English.
