We have to know everything that is going on in the field [...] so we can continue providing the highest standard of service, quickly and at affordable rates.
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) January 24, 2014
Well-known San Diego plumber, Bill Howe, opened his doors in 1980. Operating out of a small studio with one service truck, he quickly grew his business into one of the largest family-owned and operated San Diego plumbing companies with services including heating & air conditioning, plumbing, and restoration and reconstruction. Part of the success of the Bill Howe Family of Companies has been the strong family ties within the office and in the field.
A true family business, the San Diego plumber has three daughters in leading roles across multiple divisions, his niece spearheading Human Resources and Tina Howe has been Vice President of the company for the past ten years. The newest promotion of Jaime Howe-Stolis, recent honoree at Emerging Generations Award by the San Diego Business Journal, to overseeing the plumbing division’s office operations comes as an effort to focus on increased efficiency.
The new office position is designed to create a more efficient flow from office to technician to customer. The majority of field technicians belongs to the plumbing division and handles a monthly volume of over 1000 service calls. Services range from drain clogs to whole house re-pipes, spanning from the border in the south up to the 78 in the North County.
“It is a delicate balance,” said Jaime Howe-Stolis, Plumbing Division Office Manager. “All of our dispatchers and call takers have to communicate so we are all on the same page. We have to know everything that is going on in the field and ensure our technicians are also being taken care, and dispatched to the right calls, in the right area based on our customers’ needs and technicians skill set all so we can continue providing the highest standard of service, quickly and at affordable rates.”
In order to continue on the track of growth and success the well established San Diego plumbing company has been on for over 30 years, the office is undergoing advanced training for all dispatchers and call takers, as well as new teams within the field. Job descriptions have been streamlined by Howe-Stolis to free up unnecessary tasks that do not benefit customers and each team now has a direct line of communication with one another to keep daily operations running at the optimal level.
“Communication is key,” said Tina Howe, Vice President of the Bill Howe Family of Companies. “Opening up this role really comes down to seeing that everyone in the office has someone to hold them accountable and keep the lines of communication flowing for maximum efficiency. Our customers are our top priority, and now we have a managed flow to ensure they get the best care from the name they have come to trust.”
