The Triage Workflow
During Maine winter storms, call volume spikes. We prioritize safety and property preservation.
- Intake: We verify address and access (is the driveway plowed?).
- Remote Assessment: We may ask for photos to determine equipment needs (steamer vs shovels).
- Dispatch: Teams are routed geographically to maximize stops per day.
