Sections of the Discovery Page

The Discovery page includes:

Discovery page in Provider SearchImage Removed

  • Trade/Provider Search Field: Look for providers by company name or trade they work in. 

    • Location Search Field: When Location Services are turned on in your browser, this field uses your current location. Otherwise, use this field to enter your location or the location where you are looking for service.

    Tip

    When you first navigate to Provider Search, you may be asked to grant access to your location in your browser. After you do this, the location field on the Discovery page will default to your current location.

    Discovery Recommendations: This area lists providers that best fit your needs based on either our recommendations or your search criteria.
  • The first two recommendations are curated by ServiceChannel — these are providers who are considered the best at a national level, based on deep data-driven analysis. Though they may not correlate directly with your business, you might decide to keep them top of mind for future projects. Clicking any of these recommendations will take you to a list of providers to discover.
    • The third recommendation is specifically catered to your needs — every time you have a trade with less than three assigned providers at a location, ServiceChannel  suggests providers in this Discovery area to help you expand your coverage. Clicking this recommendation will take you to a list of providers to discover for that location’s coverage area.

    When you want to find a provider for specific trades in needed regions, start the provider search process by entering the desired trade and the required search area in the Search fields. For example, the Plumbing trade in New York Mills, Minnesota, United States. 

    Should you need to find an exact company to perform facility services, you can start typing the provider’s company name in the first Search field.

    Info

    You may see the Discovery cards and Coverage Map instead of Network Opportunities. It may happen because of the following reasons: 

    • Your user has Power User or/and Provider Assignment Editor secondary roles to be able to view Network Opportunities.  
    • Your current providers do not meet the requirements for provider analysis.   
    • There are no opportunity providers yet to replace old providers. Check if there are opportunities next month.
