Case Study: The Draft Guys reduces scheduling time by 87.5% with Praxedo

The Draft Guys reduced scheduling time by 87.5% since deploying Praxedo

The Draft Guys is a draft beer maintenance company founded in 2013 that services breweries and microbreweries across New Brunswick and part of Nova Scotia. As the business grew to about 1,000 clients, scheduling work orders, managing routes, and handling paper-based accounting became time-consuming, especially with long travel times between customer sites. To address those issues, the company chose Praxedo cloud-based field service software.

With Praxedo, The Draft Guys uses the mobile app and web platform to schedule jobs, organize recurring maintenance, optimize routes, and track work orders and parts used onsite. Simon Doucette said scheduling time dropped from 4 hours a week to 30 minutes, a reduction of 87.5%, and the company also reduced missed charges by prompting technicians to record replacement equipment before closing a work order. Praxedo also simplified reporting for accounting, improved route planning, and helped reduce fuel costs and manual paperwork.
