Workforce Management Software and the Future of Field Service

In our latest blog we highlight he value of introducing workforce management and mobile field service software tools into daily field service operations, saving your organisation valuable time and allowing you to stay one step ahead of the competition in a rapidly-evolving digital landscape.
The use of key performance indicators (KPIs) is now standard among organisations requiring a means of measuring the effectiveness of their performance. Using mobile workforce management software can help your firm to meet and exceed KPIs, in the process saving time and costs, and reinforcing overall quality and safety standards.

Our mobile data collection tool has new features

mWorkerCIS, our mobile workforce data collection tool, now has the following added functionality:
  • Regular progress updates for long-running jobs.
  • Attaching documents to jobs in the server. This gives your workers the information they need to complete their work, and it saves on printing costs! These documents can then be annotated by your users while they are completing a form.
