Where BigChange fits
BigChange is a field service and fleet management platform with a strong position in vehicle-tracking-led operations. It offers job management, scheduling, mobile app, and CRM functionality, with fleet visibility as a central differentiator. BigChange’s AI investments are focused on fleet optimisation and route efficiency, a logical extension of their tracking-first heritage.
For businesses where fleet visibility is the primary operational problem, BigChange is a credible solution.
Where TotalCtrl fits
TotalCtrl starts from a different problem. For commercial HVAC, renewable energy services, specialist engineering, and compliance-heavy field operations, the daily challenge is not tracking vehicles. It is controlling the complexity of jobs, contracts, SLA commitments, PPM schedules, compliance records, and margins across a 20 to 150+ field operative team.
TotalCtrl is built around that operational core. Jerrold’s intelligence runs across scheduling decisions, SLA risk, compliance gaps, missing billables, and margin variance, not fleet position. The mobile platform delivers field operative pre-arrival briefs, compliance capture, photo proof, e-signature, and voice-to-text reporting. The invoice stage checks for missing billable items before anything leaves the system.
If your primary challenge is operational control of complex jobs and contracts, rather than fleet tracking, TotalCtrl is built for that problem specifically.
