That's basically what our local Time Warner franchise does. It also doubles as the timeclock. Arrival time at the first job of the day counts as their punch in time.

Our techs are instructed to contact the NOC before and after they
arrive onsite. The tech supplies the ETA to the NOC and the NOC
follows up at the given ETA.

Our NOC is staffed 24x7. YMMV.

Hey folks,

I want to evaluate some different options for field tech's to check-in with.
Right now, we rely on our support staff to not "forget" that a tech missed
his ETA to return home at night, but it does happen sometimes.  I'd like to
eliminate human error.  Ideally, something that they can phone into, email,
sms or website.  And obviously, if a check-in is missed, automated
notifications are sent to a list of contacts, escalating with time.

Anyone use anything like this and have recommendations?
