ServiceBox
Regina-built field-service management — a Canadian-made FSM born from a plumbing shop
Market position
A Canadian-built FSM platform from Regina, Saskatchewan (vendor Jobbox Software), created when the founders couldn’t find software to run a plumbing company’s work orders. It grew out of HVAC into a full quoting → work-order → scheduling → invoicing → timesheets suite, with early backing from Canadian government innovation programs — a genuinely Canada-origin story with no competing US identity.
Canada-specific note

Why this matters for Canada trades
Trade certification is provincial (with the interprovincial Red Seal endorsement), and payroll/accounting software must handle CRA source deductions, GST/HST/PST, and — for Quebec — French-language and Revenu Québec requirements.
Canadian trades vendor selection is shaped by provincial trade certification (often Red Seal), CRA payroll remittances, GST/HST/PST handling, and bilingual (English/French) requirements in some provinces.
