A Dispatcher in the maintenance and installation industry plays a vital role in coordinating maintenance and installation tasks. They are responsible for receiving service requests, scheduling technicians for jobs, and ensuring that technicians are informed about their assignments. Additionally, they might also handle inventory management, monitor progress of tasks, and manage customer concerns.
