A utility provider can receive a new person, action log or work order in FastGem while the team is already dealing with field work and customer calls. The manual chase begins when someone has to copy that detail into a message or another contact record. FastGem’s New Person trigger can welcome a new contact, while New Work Order can send a practical update about scheduled work.

Through Zapier, FastGem can trigger Mobile Message Send SMS, Create Contact, Add Contact to List or Send SMS to List. A New Work Order event can text the customer that work has been created, and New Person can create or update their Mobile Message contact. New Item Action can also alert a supervisor when an action log needs attention. FastGem remains the source for people, leads and work orders, while Mobile Message provides the direct text step. This is not a two-way synchronisation. Map the mobile number and relevant work order or action details, then keep the message focused on timing and next steps. The result is fewer missed customer updates and less duplicate data entry for utility teams managing work from lead through completion.
