In August 2024, we asked four crews what they thought about Crewscope after using the program for over three months. We wanted to understand how we impact fieldworker focus and motivation with SMART Goals. We sent the survey via Crewscope to 54 fieldworkers and received 43 responses in five business days. If you have ever tried surveying fieldworkers, an 80% participation rate is an accomplishment in itself!
