Marlin Service = your service and maintenance process made smarter, better and faster
PCA has designed and built Marlin Service. This planning board serves as a large intersection where everything comes together. It displays ‘who’, ‘when’, ‘what’ and ‘where’ to handle. Marlin Service ensures that your organization with a field service workforce is, with a few mechanics to hundreds or even thousands:
