The operational problem

Your labor call changes by the minute. Your system should keep up.

A late decline should not trigger another maze of tabs, texts, and callbacks. PibStage is designed to keep dispatch, worker status, crew changes, and time records connected.

01

Before the call

Availability lives in one place, qualifications in another, and the newest roster is buried in a thread.

02

During the fill

Dispatchers chase responses, replace declines, and answer the same status question more than once.

03

After the event

Paper timecards and conflicting hours turn a finished event into another round of cleanup.

From request to approved time

One operating line for the whole labor call.

Each step carries the crew record forward so the next person starts with current information.

Dispatch

Build the crew. Send the call. Know who’s showing up.

Create the labor call, define positions and qualifications, send call-outs, watch responses, and keep every open spot visible.

Common questions

What to know before a demo.

Clear answers now, detailed workflow fit during the conversation.

Who is PibStage designed for?+

PibStage is being designed for IATSE-style locals, stagehand unions, stage labor companies, production labor providers, venues, and other dispatch-heavy live-event labor organizations.

Does PibStage process payroll?+

Not currently. PibStage is designed to produce approved, payroll-ready labor records and exports that can be sent into your payroll process.

Can we track worker skills and certifications?+

That is part of the planned workforce record. Profiles can organize classifications, skills, certifications, availability, status, and recent work history.

How do call-outs work?+

Dispatchers create a labor call, identify the positions needed, review qualified and available workers, send call-outs, and monitor responses from one operational view.

Can PibStage support union rules or seniority?+

Workflows may be configurable by organization, but specific automated referral, seniority, and local-rule functionality should be confirmed during a demo and implementation discussion.

Is there a worker mobile app?+

Mobile worker experiences are part of the product direction. Exact launch functionality and timing will be confirmed before purchase.

Can you migrate our current roster?+

Data migration support is planned for larger implementations. We would review your current files and requirements before committing to scope.

Is pricing final?+

No. The displayed figures are pre-launch test values intended to show the planned packaging. Final pricing will be approved before launch.
