Romney Pest Control Case Study

About the Company

Romney Pest Control, family operated and locally owned with offices in Dallas, San Antonio, and Houston, since 2003, prides themselves on developing the best pest control treatments and super-serving their customers. With an excellent track record in both home and commercial pest services, Romney Pest Control holds an A+ BBB rating and many industry awards and recognition. Romney Pest Control chose FieldRoutes to help it streamline back-office operations and increase profitability across all three of their locations.

The Challenge

Romney Pest Control, with three busy locations throughout Texas, was experiencing the same kinds of problems most growing pest control companies face, rising labor and supply costs and lower profitability. They needed a way to quickly streamline all of their manual processes and gain better visibility into business operations without eroding margin. Their current technology (or lack thereof) and paper-based processes were getting in the way.

The Solution

The FieldRoutes™ operations suite provided immediate relief. By transitioning labor and paper-intensive tasks to FieldRoutes software, Romney Pest Control experienced a direct cost savings and a decrease in their monthly paper and supply costs. With the addition of Smart Routing and Tech Tracking, Romney went from six hours of route prep to less than 30 minutes per day, giving management the ability to see more customers per technician. The comprehensive dashboard, reporting and business intelligence provided a real-time window into every aspect of their business, helping them make data-driven decisions on both growth and profitability.

The Impact

With FieldRoutes, Romney Pest Control improved office efficiencies across the board. Ultimately, giving it more time in its day to super-serve their customers and $200,000-plus savings in expenses per year.

By implementing the FieldRoutes operations suite, Romney Pest Control has saved:

• $3,390 per month in paper and supply costs

• $7-10k a month in reduced labor costs

• $3,900 per month in routing costs

"FieldRoutes has made us more profitable! Since adopting FieldRoutes, we are saving $7-10k a month just on labor. Because the reporting in the old software was difficult, we could not be proactive. The FieldRoutes dashboard provided a window into my business I never had before, giving me full visibility into the trajectory of the business."
