# AI Dispatcher for Singapore
AI dispatching, tuned to how Singapore actually runs.
**Most dispatch tools assume every technician drives, and that your jobs arrive as tidy web forms** In Singapore neither holds. Half your crew moves by MRT and bus, and the job starts as a WhatsApp message at 9pm. FieldCamp’s AI Dispatcher scores public-transport travel time through OneMap, not just driving, and turns that WhatsApp message into a dispatched job. It matches by the skill the job actually needs, respects your shift limits, and runs on Auto only as far as you let it.

## What FieldCamp AI Agents Do for Singapore Field Service Teams
Overview
## You know what an AI dispatcher does. Here’s the Singapore-shaped one.
We won’t re-explain the category. This is the deep mechanism, section by section: what the solver reads, how it scores an MRT trip against a car, where it stops for your shift rules, and exactly how much of it runs without you.

01 Skill & Zone Matching
### The right skill first, Then the closest.
The dispatcher treats required skill as a hard constraint, not a suggestion. A job that needs an NEA-licensed pest technician, or someone certified to handle a specific refrigerant, is only ever offered to a technician who holds that skill. Proximity and capacity are scored afterwards, among the qualified. No sending the nearest cleaner to an aircon job because they happened to be free.

Driving is the default. Turn on public-transport mode and the dispatcher [**scores MRT and bus travel time via OneMap**](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/calendar/route-optimization-in-fieldcamp). In a city where plenty of field crew don’t drive, that changes who wins a job. A technician who reaches Bishan faster on the Circle Line can beat a colleague crawling there by car, and the dispatcher sees it, because it’s costing real Singapore transit time, not a straight-line distance.

03 Capacity & Shift Rules
### It stops before the day collapses, not after.
[**Every capacity limit you set**](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/ai-dispatcher/capacity-and-workload-limits) is a wall the dispatcher won’t push a technician through. Max jobs per day, shift-end times, an overtime grace window with a cost multiplier, and return-to-depot time when fuel or depot tracking is on. When someone hits their cap, remaining jobs queue for the next slot instead of quietly overloading a real person.

04 Recurring, Cancellations & Emergencies
### A cancellation is a gap to fill, not a scramble.

The board only moves when a supervisor approves the re-optimised plan. Recurring cleans, contracts, and servicing schedules run on their own cadence. [**When a job cancels, you re-run the dispatcher**](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/ai-dispatcher/handle-late-jobs-and-cancellations) and it re-optimises that technician’s route and [**drops the best-fit queued job into the freed slot**](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/ai-dispatcher/never-miss-a-suggestion). It’s dispatcher-triggered, so a supervisor decides when the board moves, the schedule doesn’t silently rearrange itself under a crew mid-shift. Urgent work is handled by priority: a high-priority job is weighted ahead of routine jobs and matched to the closest qualified technician.
FieldCamp doesn’t run an on-call roster or auto-reshuffle on cancel. It gives a supervisor a re-optimised board to approve.

05 Status Automation
### Nobody has to move the cards. The dispatcher does.
Map your pipeline stages to dispatcher events once, and every outcome updates the board itself. Assigned, suggested, rejected, unassigned, or failed to dispatch: each triggers the right status transition, and location, duration, start time, assignee, skills, and priority are mapped from your own fields. Change a field name and the mapping follows.

## AI Agents versus Workflow Automations in FieldCamp: Which One You Need
06 Dispatch Modes
### Auto when you trust it. Assist when you want the call.
The same matching logic runs in both modes. The only difference is whether a human signs off before the technician is notified. Most Singapore operators start in Assist and graduate the routine work to Auto.
Auto · assigns directly
#### AI assigns. You review after.
It matches, respects every constraint, assigns, and updates the status without waiting for approval. You review the completed batch, not each decision.
**Best for:** recurring patterns you’ve watched the system get right, same crews, same areas.
Assist · queues for approval
#### AI suggests. You approve.
Same logic, but every assignment holds in a queue with the suggested technician, the travel time, and the shift impact shown. Approve or override before anything fires.
**Best for:** new clients, high-value jobs, anything you want the final say on.
## How FieldCamp AI Agents Work: Configure, Trigger, Review — on Singapore Time
07 How Dispatch Runs
### From a WhatsApp message to a dispatched job. Four steps, no retyping.
01
#### Job lands as a record
A WhatsApp message, photo, and voice note become a job the dispatcher can read, before anyone retypes a chat thread.
02
#### The solver matches it
Required skill is enforced first, then zone, capacity, and driving or MRT/bus travel time via OneMap score the best-fit technician.
03
#### Auto assigns, or you approve
In Auto it assigns and updates the status. In Assist it queues the pick with travel time and shift impact for your sign-off.
04
#### Sign-off bills the job
Once the dispatched job is completed it invoices in SGD with GST at your configured rate, synced to Xero or QuickBooks.
Six trigger types: schedule (SGT-aware), webhook, workflow event, manual, chat, and API. Scheduled agents run on Singapore time, so 6pm means 6pm SGT.
08 Around The Dispatch
### The Singapore realities. it’s wired for.
WhatsApp booking into the job record
A message, photo, and voice note become a job the dispatcher can read, before anyone retypes a chat thread. It’s how most Singapore jobs actually arrive.
MRT & bus travel time via OneMap
Driving by default, public-transport per-setting. The dispatcher scores a real Singapore transit trip so a non-driving crew member competes on arrival time.
SGD invoicing with GST, synced to Xero
A completed job invoices in SGD with GST calculated automatically. The rate is configurable, and invoices sync to Xero or QuickBooks so admin isn’t re-keying anything.
Recurring schedules that hold
Weekly cleans, servicing contracts, and repeat visits run on their own cadence and feed the same dispatch logic, no re-entry each cycle.
A data model you shape
Add fields for your skills, zones, equipment, and job types. The dispatcher reads what you configure, so it fits cleaning, aircon, pest, and FM alike.
Agents and intake around it
Pair the dispatcher with an [**AI Receptionist that answers and books**](/sg/ai-receptionist/), and [**AI Agents that chase the follow-ups**](/sg/ai-agents/), so the queue it dispatches from stays full and clean.
## How AI Agents Fit the Full FieldCamp Platform for Singapore Teams
09 Inside The FieldCamp Ecosystem
### One enquiry. The whole platform moves
Where each part of FieldCamp does its job on a single Singapore booking, from the first WhatsApp message to the paid invoice, no tool handoffs in between.
01
#### [AI Receptionist](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/inbox/ai-receptionist-setup-and-deployment)
A customer WhatsApps or calls. The AI Receptionist answers, captures the enquiry, and books the job.
02
#### [AI Dispatcher](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/ai-dispatcher)
The job is matched to a qualified technician by skill and travel time — driving or MRT/bus via OneMap.
03
#### Field Execution
The technician runs the visit on mobile, with GPS-stamped clock in/out, photos, and a signature at sign-off.
04
#### [Workflows](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/workflow-automation/workflows-overview)
Deterministic sequences, like contract-renewal reminders at 30 and 7 days, run the same way every time.
05
#### Invoicing
The invoice generates in SGD with GST on sign-off and syncs two-way to Xero or QuickBooks. Payment is collected after the job.
Reminders and status updates are workflow automations you set up, not self-firing AI agents. Each step is a real part of the FieldCamp platform, not a separate tool to wire up.

## FieldCamp AI Agents Singapore: Frequently Asked Questions
11 AI Agents FAQ
## Questions Singapore operators actually ask.
**Does the AI Dispatcher work for teams that get their bookings on WhatsApp?**
Yes, and in Singapore that is the point. WhatsApp reaches roughly 87% of Singapore’s online population, so most service jobs start as a message, not a neat web form. In FieldCamp a WhatsApp booking, including the photo and voice note the customer sent, becomes a job record automatically. The AI Dispatcher then reads that record and assigns it, instead of your admin retyping a chat thread the next morning before anyone can be dispatched.
**Can it dispatch technicians who travel by MRT and bus, not just drivers?**
Yes. This is the biggest difference from a generic dispatcher. Driving time (via OSRM or Google) is the default, but you can turn on public-transport mode and the AI Dispatcher scores Singapore MRT and bus travel time through OneMap when it picks the best technician for a slot. A crew member who reaches the job faster by train than a colleague would by car can win the assignment, so a team that doesn’t all drive isn’t automatically ranked last.
**How does skill matching work, and does it check certifications like NEA licensing or refrigerant handling?**
Every technician record stores the skills and equipment they hold. Every job carries the skills it requires. The AI Dispatcher treats required skill as a hard constraint: a job is only offered to technicians who hold the matching skill, and a mismatch is filtered out before proximity or capacity is even considered. Certifications such as NEA pest-control licensing, aircon refrigerant handling, or a specific chemical qualification work as dispatch filters when you model them as skills on the technician record. FieldCamp does not ship with built-in regulator awareness; it enforces whatever skills your team actually configures.
**How much runs without me approving each assignment?**
You decide, per job type. In Assist mode the dispatcher runs the full matching logic but holds every assignment in a queue with the suggested technician, the travel time, and the shift impact, so you approve or override before anything fires. In Auto mode it assigns directly and updates the status without a human step. Most Singapore operators start recurring, well-understood work in Assist, then move it to Auto once they trust the picks, while keeping new clients and high-value jobs in Assist.
**Does it invoice in SGD with GST after the job is dispatched?**
Yes. Once a dispatched job is completed, invoicing runs in SGD with GST calculated automatically. The GST rate is configurable rather than hardcoded, so it stays correct as rates change, and invoices sync to Xero or QuickBooks so your admin isn’t re-keying the same job into a separate accounting system.
**Is FieldCamp eligible for the PSG grant?**
Singapore SMEs adopting software like FieldCamp may be able to [**offset part of the cost**](/sg/pricing/) through the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG). Eligibility depends on your company’s grant status and Enterprise Singapore’s approved-vendor list at the time you apply, and that list changes. FieldCamp is currently in evaluation and is not yet an approved PSG vendor, so check the current list on Enterprise Singapore’s site, or ask your FieldCamp contact for the latest position before you budget around it. We won’t tell you it’s guaranteed.
**How is this different from FieldCamp’s global AI Dispatcher?**
Same engine, set up for Singapore. The global AI Dispatcher covers the core solver and the general category of AI dispatching. This page is that same dispatcher configured for how Singapore field teams actually run: public-transport travel time via OneMap for crews who don’t drive, WhatsApp bookings flowing straight into the job record, SGD invoicing with GST, and dispatch tuned to [**Singapore’s dense zones**](https://docs.fieldcamp.ai/ai-dispatcher/service-areas-and-zones). It is not a different product, it is the same solver with the Singapore realities switched on.
