AI Adoption at Vixxo
When a service provider knows exactly where they stand every Friday, they can act sooner. One Vixxo team is using artificial intelligence (AI) to turn a time-consuming manual scorecard process into a faster, more useful weekly coaching tool, giving providers clearer feedback and giving clients a stronger service experience.

Every Friday Providers get a consistent performance snapshot while the week is still fresh |
A facilities director may never see a provider scorecard, but they feel the impact of one. They feel it when the right technician arrives on time. They feel it when the first visit fixes the issue. They feel it when urgent calls get the attention they deserve.
That feedback loop matters. Service providers manage their crews based on the information they receive from the programs they support. If the feedback comes late, is inconsistent, or does not give enough detail to act on, it becomes harder to coach in the moment. And in facilities management, a missed coaching opportunity this week can turn into a slower response, a repeat visit, or a missed SLA next week.
That is the gap one Vixxo regional team wanted to close. Across three territorial regions, which includes, half of Canada and nearly a dozen U.S. states, the Team Lead supports 25 service providers doing work for a major national retail account. Each provider was already receiving a weekly report, but the process was almost entirely manual: pull the data, capture the metrics, format the Excel file, draft the email, attach the report, and repeat the whole process 25 times.
It worked, but it also took hours that could have been spent on higher-value work, like coaching providers, following up on escalations, reviewing invoices, and helping resolve open issues.
Calvin Miller, a regional team lead on the account, used Vixxo's internal AI cohort training to build an automated scorecard tool. The tool is preloaded with each provider's name, region, and contact information, then uses the latest reporting data to draft a personalized weekly scorecard for each one.
What used to take more than two hours each Friday now takes about 20 minutes of review before sending. That does not just save time for the sake of saving time. It gives the team more space to focus on the work that actually changes outcomes: having coaching conversations, digging into misses, recognizing strong performance, and following up faster where support is needed.
The scorecards are also more useful than a simple pass/fail report. Each one includes a 30-day service level agreement (SLA) overview, a short coaching note, a 7-day report card, a priority-one breakdown, and a detailed attachment showing each service request from the week, including the reason behind any missed call.
That level of detail helps providers see what is happening while they can still do something about it. Instead of learning a month later that a pattern has developed, they can adjust staffing, coach technicians, or flag obstacles within the same week.
Below is a sample of a scorecard, with illustrative provider and account names in place of the real ones.

The strongest part of the scorecard is that it does more than share a number. It gives providers context. It calls out where they are doing well, flags where performance may be slipping, and asks a simple but important question: what is the biggest hurdle standing in the way of stronger SLA performance?
That small shift makes the report feel less like a grade and more like a coaching conversation. A provider can spot a late-arrival pattern and address it with the right technician. A regional lead can recognize improvement instead of only reaching out when something goes wrong. And because the information arrives consistently, both sides can have a more productive conversation while the details are still current.
That is where the client benefit shows up. When providers have clearer feedback, they can manage their own teams more effectively. Over time, that can mean fewer missed SLAs, faster first-time fixes, fewer repeat visits, and a better experience at the locations they serve.
"Now you have almost your full Friday. You're not spending even an hour to get this done. It gives providers a little bit of recognition too, not just a report card."
Calvin built the tool to solve a real weekly challenge for his own team. But once other regional leads saw it, the use case was easy to understand: every team managing provider relationships needs timely, accurate, easy-to-act-on performance feedback.
The model is already set up to scale across both U.S. and Canadian regions. The plan is to bring it to every team lead managing service provider relationships, so more providers across the network can receive the same timely, detailed, coaching-focused feedback, and more clients can feel the benefit at the location level.

Talk to VixxoHow does a faster scorecard process benefit the client, not just the service provider?
When providers get consistent, detailed feedback every week, they can address issues faster. That helps reduce missed SLAs, repeat visits, and preventable service delays at client locations.
What does the automated scorecard include?
Each scorecard includes a 30-day SLA overview, a short coaching note, a 7-day report card, a priority-one call breakdown, and a detailed attachment showing the week's service request activity.
Does a person still review the scorecards before they go out?
Yes. The tool drafts the emails, but a team lead reviews the data before sending. That review step helps confirm accuracy and keeps the process grounded in the source system data.
Is this approach being scaled beyond one team or region?
Yes. The tool was built for one team's weekly workflow, but the plan is to expand the approach to other team leads managing service provider relationships across the network.
