KEEP RESTORATION MOVING WITH CONNECTED, SCALABLE CREW LOGISTICS
Event response runs more smoothly when every crew, resource, and activity is coordinated from a single, connected solution. Arcos Crew Manager brings all event logistics, field activity, and crew communication into one place, so crews can stay productive and support teams can scale seamlessly.
With real-time convoy tracking and built-in logistics tools, utilities can direct and support crews from the road to the job site to lodging without missing a beat. Labor, materials, and expenses are captured as work happens, creating verified documentation that speeds reporting and strengthens cost recovery with FEMA.
Arcos keeps everyone aligned, informed, and moving, from activation to closeout.

Customer Stories
Crew Management Built for Event Response
“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.”
Kimberly A. Smith
Director, Emergency Preparedness
ComEd, An Exelon Company
“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.”
Frederick J. Rumery
Supervisor, Project Management
Lincoln Electric Systems
“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.”
