Carry the Five Most Common Capacitors on Your Truck

A dead capacitor is one of the most common service calls you'll run, especially in summer. If you don't have the right one on the truck, that's a trip to the supply house and a customer sitting in the heat. Use your van stock data in PrecisionOps to figure out which capacitors you actually use most. For most residential techs, five or six values cover the vast majority of calls.

PrecisionOps tracks parts usage per truck, so the data is already there. Look at what you've pulled from stock over the last few months and build your standard loadout around those numbers. Set reorder alerts so you get a heads-up before you run out, not after.

The goal is simple: show up to the call with the part in hand. Every supply house run is lost revenue, lost time, and a frustrated customer.
