READING, U.K. - eTradeWire -- Dynamic Field Service planning solution FLS VISITOUR has achieved the Best Decarbonisation Approach shortlist at the 2025 Housing Executive Awards.

Across the UK housing sector, FLS VISITOUR enables DLOs and contractors to cut travel distances and emissions through algorithm-driven planning. Using geocoded mapping and live traffic data, it optimises journeys down to exact locations. This reduces wasted travel, helping field teams – from repairs and maintenance operatives to compliance inspectors and housing officers – reach appointments faster while lowering fuel use and carbon output.

Typical results include a 30–50% cut in driving distances, boosting capacity by more than one extra appointment per shift, with SLA adherence rates as high as 99.5%.

Jeremy Squire, UK Managing Director, FLS – FAST LEAN SMART said;
"We are delighted that FLS VISITOUR has been nominated in the Housing Executive Awards. This is not only a testament to the innovation delivered by our development and consultancy teams, but the critical carbon reduction efforts and the results that our users have accomplished.

Inadequate planning creates job failures because operatives do not have the required skills, parts, or realistic time to complete jobs first time. This leads to unnecessary idle times and avoidable travel costs. As well as tailpipe emissions, manual practices under- and overload employees.

With the recent addition of Wates Property Services, our customers provide repairs and maintenance services to two million properties across the UK and Europe. For social landlords and housing associations, this comes at a critical juncture with an increasing cost to serve that must be balanced with compliance and Net Zero targets."
