Booking Reschedule (SOP)
Overview
New bookings received by Whizz have a scheduled completion date and time. The schedule may change due to a request from the Property Management Group (PMG), or a cleaning company may request to reschedule. The process for a schedule change is different depending on who requested the change.
GOAL: Ensure all bookings are completed on schedule
Process
To process a reschedule request from the cleaning company
In general, STR bookings cannot be moved. B2B bookings can never be moved, and non-B2B bookings can only be moved to the next day if there are special circumstances. This is called rolling a clean. Whizz does not encourage cleaning companies to do this, as we have an agreement with PMGs to complete all cleans on the day requested.
-
Whizz receives the request from the cleaning company
-
Contact the PMG to request approval to roll the clean
-
Send macro → STR>SMS>PMG>Request to Roll Clean
To process a reschedule request from the PMG
A reschedule request may come via email from the PMG or through an auto-generated email.
-
Update the booking date and time in the AP to reflect the change. The cleaning company will receive a notification that the booking details have been updated.
-
If the change is for a same-day booking, the cleaning company will also need to be notified
-
Send macro → STR>SMS>SP>Reschedule Clean - Urgent
To reschedule a booking in the AP
If the PMG agrees to roll the clean, then Whizz can reschedule the booking in the AP.
-
Reschedule booking in the AP → Reschedule a Booking in the AP
-
Contact the cleaning company to confirm the change
-
Send macro → STR>SMS>SP>Approval to Roll Clean
If the PMG does not agree to roll the clean, then Whizz must ensure a cleaner attends on the same day.
-
Call the cleaning company, explain that the clean cannot be rolled and request same-day completion.
-
If the cleaning company is unable to complete the clean on the day
-
Unassign the cleaning company from the booking in the AP
-
Contact all cleaners in the relevant PMG sheet → STR Cleaner Contact Details/Branches
-
Identify the most suitable cleaners and send macro → STR>SMS>SP>Request for Job
-
Continue to contact cleaners until the booking is assigned
-
Communicate all property-specific details and special instructions to the cleaner that will not be easily available in the app
*Important If all cleaners refuse or do not answer, escalate to the Operations Team Lead
