Contractors lack a structured decision-making tool for after-hours emergency calls, needing a simple yes/no triage system for their answering service.

Existing answering services don't integrate simple business rules (e.g., crew availability, area, job type) for automated call triage, forcing the owner to manually decide or train operators ad hoc.
