Optimizing Home Installation Services with Salesforce Agentforce Field Service

Empowering retail and installation teams with intelligent scheduling, real-time technician guidance, and automated service reporting.

A leading home electronics and appliance retailer partnered with ValueHub to implement Salesforce Agentforce Field Service, transforming how installations, maintenance, and in-home services were managed.

The company needed a smarter, faster way to schedule installations, assist technicians in real time, and ensure every service was completed accurately — without the administrative overhead.

Agentforce Field Service became their AI-powered operations assistant, automatically managing appointment scheduling, optimizing technician routes, guiding field workers through complex setups, and generating post-work reports — all inside Salesforce.

Client & Business Challenges

A large consumer retail brand offering household electronics and installation services faced persistent operational bottlenecks. The client needed an intelligent, integrated solution to automate service scheduling, boost technician efficiency, and improve post-installation customer satisfaction.

- Manual scheduling and rescheduling created delays and double bookings.

- Technicians lacked real-time troubleshooting help for complex installations.

- Dispatchers struggled to fill cancellations and optimize technician time.

- Paper-based job reporting slowed billing and customer updates.

- Poor visibility into technician performance impacted SLA compliance.
