Schedule and crew
Give the crew the scope in their language
Your quote is written for the customer. CrewBuddy rewrites it for the crew, in Spanish with an English copy, with the details that matter on site.

Fictional example.
What goes on the sheet
The address and start time, then the work room by room: what gets done, the materials and color names exactly as written, measurements, and what to protect or leave alone. Customer requests, such as keeping the dog in the yard or not parking in the driveway, get their own line. Prices and your margins stay off unless you ask for them.
Trade words vary by region, so CrewBuddy puts the English term next to the Spanish one the first time, like zoclo (baseboard). If your crew uses different words, tell it once and it remembers.
Sending it and safety notes
You send the sheet to the crew from your phone; CrewBuddy cannot text them. Copy it into your group chat or print it. A Spanish copy of a crew plan for tomorrow works the same way.
OSHA’s policy is that required safety training has to be given in a language and vocabulary workers understand. A crew sheet is not training, but if it carries a safety step, such as lead-safe prep, put it in plain Spanish too.
Have a bilingual lead read the first few sheets. Once the words match how your crew talks, the rest go quickly.

What you send
The quote or your notes for the job, which crew is going, and anything the customer asked for, like furniture to leave alone.
What CrewBuddy prepares
A short crew sheet in Spanish with an English copy: tasks by room, materials and colors, measurements, address and start time, and the customer’s requests.
What to keep in mind
Prices stay off the crew sheet unless you ask. Measurements and color names are copied exactly, and anything unclear is marked for you.
