Smarter call-outs with Pinga
Duplicate trips, overtime and contractor attendance add up. Pinga helps reduce duplicated responses by contacting people in order and recording who accepts responsibility.
Build your response plan ↗The same alarm reaches all three people at once.
Nobody has confirmed ownership. Multiple people may head out to the same job.
Give each person a chance to accept before escalating.
Ownership is recorded. The remaining sequence is stopped.
Illustrative comparison. Acknowledgement stops further escalation; people already contacted may still respond.
Spend attention where it counts
Start with an on-site operator. Follow with an on-call technician. Escalate to a specialist if nobody accepts.
That structure can help reduce unnecessary travel, overtime and contractor attendance. It also gives your first contact time to investigate before more people are interrupted.
Choose wait times to suit the consequence of the fault. A short wait may fit an urgent operational issue; a routine exception may allow a longer response window.
Ask staff to acknowledge before heading out. Pinga stops future escalation, but it cannot recall messages or stop people who are already on their way.
A quick way to see the opportunity
Explore your own assumptions. This estimates avoidable attendance costs, not guaranteed savings or Pinga’s subscription price.
3 unnecessary attendances a month × $180 × 12 months.
Actual outcomes depend on your operation, response practices and successful notification delivery. The calculation assumes the entered duplicate attendances could be avoided.Useful controls, built in
SMS a contact, wait a minute, call them, then wait five minutes before calling the next person. Choose the sequence that suits the monitor.
Use reminders and repeat rules while an issue remains open. An acknowledgement records responsibility; a recovery records the equipment message.
Combine notification limits, quiet hours, on-call schedules and minimum fault durations. Flap detection helps recognise repeated fault/recovery cycles.
Bring some order to the alarm.
