  • Going forward, the first Tuesday of every month will be a Company Meeting.  8:00am at the shop (#704).  Nothing crazy.  Maybe a half-hour at most.  Just a time to review the previous month’s efforts and set the direction for the month ahead.  Tuesday, December 3rd – Be there.  Tacos and coffee included.  (And, be warned: with all of the company vans in one place at one time, there may be a Company Vehicle Maintenance Policy adherence pop quiz.  Study here: https://inside.theacguys.com/company-vehicle-maintenance-policy/.)

  • Job Tracking

    We have some projects coming up that require tracking of our labor hours.  We are a fairly laid back company across the board, but we need to tighten up here.  We are tightening up here.  Consistently use the On My Way, Start, and Finish buttons in Housecall Pro, as outlined in our Dispatching Policy (https://inside.theacguys.com/dispatching/)… or you will get to know the Progressive Discipline Policy and Procedure (https://inside.theacguys.com/progressive-discipline-policy-and-procedure/).

  • The enrollment period for the Company Retirement Savings Plan is open.  You have 30 days to join the plan if you so desire.  You can use your own financial planner person if you want.  More information is available here: https://inside.theacguys.com/company-retirement-savings-plan/

  • The Shop (#704 at CubeSmart) Basic Guidelines

    We all use The Shop in one way or another.  Try to keep it accessible, organized, and clean.

    • Box or bag all trash.
    • Try to keep the area in front of the recycling shelf clear.
    • Don’t put anything on the trailer.
    • Use the supplies there BEFORE buying more.  Duct board, start collars, drain pans, etc.  All the leftover supplies often get overlooked and never used.  This takes up space and wastes company money.

    Get Paid

    Industry best practice is that all invoices for work performed should be collected at the time of service.  Yes, some of our customers may not be present at the time of completion, but the invoice should be completed and sent at the time of completion regardless.  Failure to do so can cause cash flow issues within the company… which is the #2 killer of HVAC companies.  Our goal: 100% of all calls should be invoiced and/or collected at the time of service.
