At 10,000 Service Sites Across 13 States, What You Cannot See in Real Time Is Already Affecting SLA Performance and Margin
How Bricklay gave RSC Group a real-time enterprise operations platform refreshing every 60 seconds, providing field managers live visibility into 10,000+ daily service tickets, 300+ technicians across 13 states, billable versus non-billable labor hours, SLA compliance status, and integrated invoicing triggers, replacing a fragmented reporting environment where decisions were made on data that was already hours or days old.

DSO Reduced
Accounts Receivable cycles accelerated through unified ticket completion, invoice generation, and billing visibility in one platform.
The Client
RSC Group is a multi-state field services organization operating across 13 states with more than 10,000 customer service sites, 300+ field technicians, electricians, dispatchers, and drivers, and a daily service ticket volume that places extraordinary demands on real-time operational visibility. The organization manages work order completion, SLA compliance, resource allocation, and invoicing across a distributed workforce that cannot be supervised from a central location. Every hour of visibility lag is an hour of avoidable operational exposure.
Managing 10,000+ Service Sites Across 13 States Without Real-Time Visibility Is Not an Operational Challenge. It Is a Structural Margin Risk.
Distributed field service operations are only as manageable as the data that supports them. For RSC Group, that data arrived in batches, summarized at end-of-day, and reported in fragments across disconnected systems. By the time a field manager identified a blocking factor, a technician conflict, or a SLA at risk, the window to intervene had often already closed. Five structural gaps compounded that visibility deficit daily.
"At 10,000+ service sites, a 60-second data refresh is not a performance feature. It is the difference between resolving a SLA risk before it becomes a failure and discovering it the following morning."
10,000+ Daily Service Tickets Managed Without Real-Time Status
RSC Group's service operations generated more than 10,000 active tickets daily across 10,000+ customer sites in 13 states. Without a real-time data layer, field managers and operations leadership could not see live ticket status, blocking factors, or escalation risk. Issues discovered at end-of-day reporting could not be resolved until the following business day, compounding SLA risk across an already high-volume operation.
Billable Versus Non-Billable Labor Hours Invisible Across 300+ Field Staff
RSC Group operated with 300+ field technicians, electricians, dispatchers, and drivers whose time allocation between billable and non-billable activities directly determined service margin. Without real-time labor visibility, leadership could not identify resource misallocation until payroll and billing cycles revealed the gap. Margin impact from non-billable activity was measured retrospectively rather than corrected in real time.
SLA Compliance Managed by Reaction, Not Prevention
At 10,000+ service sites, SLA compliance depends on identifying blocking factors before they cause failures, not after. Parts unavailability, technician conflicts, routing inefficiencies, and scheduling gaps were invisible until a ticket was already overdue. SLA management was reactive at exactly the scale where it needed to be proactive.
Invoice Generation Delayed by Manual Billing Coordination
Invoice generation required manual coordination between ticket completion status, billing triggers, and accounts receivable processes. Tickets closed in the field were not immediately visible to the billing team, introducing delays between work completion and invoice issuance that directly extended Days Sales Outstanding across 10,000+ active accounts.
No Self-Service Reporting for Field Managers and Finance Teams
Operational and financial reporting for a 13-state service operation required IT involvement for every custom query, dashboard, or data extract. Field managers without technical access could not build their own views of ticket status, technician utilization, or site-level SLA performance. Finance stakeholders waited days for reports that took hours to build, consuming IT capacity that should have been directed to system development.
A Real-Time Enterprise Operations Platform Refreshing Every 60 Seconds
Bricklay designed and delivered a real-time enterprise data warehouse and analytics platform that consolidated RSC Group’s field service operations, labor tracking, SLA compliance monitoring, and invoicing visibility into a single platform refreshing every 60 seconds. No core operational systems were replaced. The intelligence layer was built on top of existing ticket, workforce, and billing data.
RSC Group’s operational data was always complete. The gap was not in what was recorded. It was in how long it took to surface, and what that lag was costing in SLA performance, labor efficiency, and AR cycle time.
- Real-Time Enterprise Data Warehouse With 60-Second Refresh Cycle. Bricklay built a real-time enterprise data warehouse consolidating field service ticket data, workforce records, SLA tracking, and billing status into a single platform refreshing every 60 seconds. Field managers and operations leadership transitioned from end-of-day batch summaries to live operational views, enabling intervention during the shift rather than after it.
- Billable Versus Non-Billable Labor Visibility Across All 300+ Field Staff. The platform surfaced billable and non-billable labor hours for every field technician, electrician, dispatcher, and driver in real time, enabling leadership to identify resource misallocation as it occurred rather than after payroll and billing cycles. Service margin management moved from retrospective analysis to proactive resource reallocation.
- SLA Compliance Tracking With Blocking Factor Identification. Ticket resolution time was tracked in real time against SLA thresholds across all 10,000+ service sites. Blocking factors including parts unavailability, technician conflicts, and routing inefficiencies were surfaced as they emerged, enabling operations teams to resolve barriers before SLA windows closed.
- Integrated Invoicing Visibility to Accelerate AR Cycles. Ticket completion status, invoice generation triggers, and billing visibility were unified in a single platform, eliminating the manual coordination gap between field work completion and invoice issuance. Finance teams saw billing triggers as tickets closed, enabling immediate invoice action and directly reducing Days Sales Outstanding.
- Self-Service Analytics for Field Managers and Finance Stakeholders. Power user reporting capabilities were deployed for field managers and finance teams, enabling them to build their own dashboards, ticket views, and performance reports without IT involvement. Reporting latency dropped from days to real time. IT capacity previously absorbed by report-building was redirected to platform development and system integration.
What Real-Time Looks Like Across 10,000+ Sites
Connecting a 13-state field service operation into a single platform refreshing every 60 seconds produced four categories of measurable operational and financial improvement.
Built for Multi-State Field Service Organizations Operating at Distributed Scale
This engagement was designed for a specific operational reality: a distributed field workforce, high daily ticket volume, and SLA obligations that cannot be managed on delayed batch data across multiple states.
