If you run field crews, you need a clear view of who is where, what is booked, and what still needs doing. Action Plan is Hardcode Studios' live product for that work: field-team scheduling, bookings, and day-to-day operations.

It lives on the Hardcode tools page and at action-plan.co.za.

What Action Plan is

Action Plan is field-team scheduling and operations SaaS. You use it to schedule crews, take bookings, coordinate tasks, and keep the day's work in one place.

It is built for operations and scheduling, not recruitment or commission workflows.

What the product does

From the Hardcode Action Plan tools page, the core capabilities are:

  • Drag-and-drop calendar scheduling
  • Booking and checklist management
  • Agent coordination and status updates
  • Reporting, exports, and role-based access

On the live product site, that means:

  • Drag-and-drop calendar so you can schedule visually and spot conflicts
  • Photo updates so agents can send before/after photos against a job
  • Custom fields so you can track data that matters to your service (public examples include bin count and garden size)
  • Team coordination to assign agents, track availability, and manage schedules
  • Job activity with comments, status changes, and files kept with each booking
  • Exports and stats, including CSV export and booking summaries, so you can review workload

In short: plan the work, run the day, keep job context together, and export when you need to.

Built for field service industries

Action Plan is aimed at field service companies. Industries listed on the product site include:

  • Bin cleaning
  • Garden and landscaping
  • Plumbing and HVAC
  • Window cleaning
  • Property maintenance
  • Delivery and logistics
  • Security and inspections

Custom fields and workflows let you track what matters in your own service line, rather than locking you into one fixed job template.
