Crew Manager
FROM ACTIVATION TO CLOSEOUT: ONE SOURCE OF TRUTH
Arcos Crew Manager is the heart of the Arcos OnCommand suite—one live view to coordinate native, contractor, and mutual-aid crews; track status and location; manage event logistics; and document every step for compliance and cost recovery.
Trusted by Top Critical Infrastructure Operators
AN OPERATIONAL COMMAND CENTER FOR YOUR CREWS
Crew Manager gives utilities a single, live view of every crew—native, contractor, and mutual aid—so dispatchers can assign and reassign work quickly, streamline logistics, and keep everyone aligned in real time. With centralized visibility into availability, location, and status, scaling up becomes seamless and reporting is automatically captured from activation through closeout.
By replacing scattered spreadsheets, emails, and paper trails with one coordinated system, Crew Manager eliminates confusion, accelerates mobilization, and improves resource utilization to help control costs and keep operations moving efficiently.

Every Crew In One System
See where crews are and what they’re doing from callout to closeout. Fast check-ins keep status current, and role-based views give each team the context they need.
- Single view of location and job status for active crews
- App-based tracking for real-time updates on crew location and faster check-in
- Role-based views for operations, safety, and leadership
Plan & Assign with Confidence
Build shifts with confidence, then adjust plans in seconds for unplanned daily work or storm events. As response scales, coordinate from a single system to keep crews working and rested.
- Track crews enroute, assign lodging and answer questions via two-way text embedded in Crew Manager
- Route the right work to the right resource—native, non-native, or mutual aid
- Pre-plan scenarios for daily work or events
Report Without the Chase
Stop hunting through spreadsheets and emails. Activity is time-stamped as work happens, so you can export what regulators and finance need on demand.
- Historical detail by date/time to support audits and rate cases
- Compile data into reports in minutes, not days
- Reduce manual effort gathering info across systems
Connect & Orchestrate
Crew Manager shares data with Arcos Callout and Arcos Mobile Workbench, along with integrations into key systems of record, including OMS, WMS, GIS, HR, and scheduling assignments, status, and reporting stay in sync.
- APIs for common utility stacks
- Bi-directional updates across Arcos products
- One data model for crews, jobs, and history

Crew & Contractor Management
Standardize work execution and data capture across third-party contractors by giving them an easy-to-use, single mobile application for assignments, time tracking, and expense capture.
Regulatory Reporting
Generate comprehensive compliance reports that roll up historical and active work data, including detailed timestamps and ownership, simplifying the reporting process to satisfy regulators and secure successful rate cases.
Crew Expense
Accelerate the financial closeout process by automatically capturing detailed crew time and expense tracking directly from the field, with auto-filled schedule details and timestamps that validate resources for invoicing and cost recovery.
Closeout & Cost Recovery
Ensure efficient post-event closeout by capturing complete and accurate cost information (labor, material, equipment) during restoration, which is critical for supporting FEMA reimbursement, contractor invoice reconciliation, and successful cost recovery efforts.

“The other huge benefit is during storms. Before we automated the management of crews, it would take us up to 4 hours to even be able to say, ‘This is how many crews we have, and here’s where they are.’ Now we’ve reduced an 11-step process to an easy, four-step process that shows us who we have on site, right away.”

“The biggest benefit is efficiency. It can be difficult to recognize how cumbersome your process is until you move to a better system. Now that we’ve experienced the value [of ARCOS], we could never go back to our previous process.”

work + crew data in one place.
“That playback is akin to a sports team watching film from its last game to analyze how well it did. With a paper-based system, preparing for a forecasted storm would likely leave time for laying out only one scenario that’s largely based on past experience.”
