Mobility pioneer FedEx has stated that a central objective of their business is “to collapse time and space and increase the amount of available information”. For many companies, this applies equally well to managing your mobile or remote front-line workforce and their activities when employees…

OFF SITE SHOULDN’T MEAN OUT OF SIGHT
Even though mobile workers may be off site, the work they do can’t be out of sight. Real-time visibility into labor and production across your workforce is needed to support efficient resource management, accurate job costing, timely billing and streamlined payroll.
Yet traditional methods for information exchange and data collection are often inefficient and unproductive for mobile employees.
Paper forms and back-and-forth phone calls entail time-consuming and error-prone inputting, processing, reviewing and re-keying of data. Always-connected computers are not possible in many environments. And even if they are, requiring employees to trek to a terminal to record every activity and receive every job update wastes time and disrupts operations.
The inability to efficiently manage the mobile workforce can be costly to your organization: significant lost productivity, unnecessary overtime, inadequate control over project costs and quality, delays in customer billing and a lack of detail to back up invoices, incorrect paychecks, and incomplete job cost data that hinders effective management decision-making.
What’s needed is an automated solution for Mobile Workforce Management – the efficient exchange of timely, accurate and detailed information to manage your front-line workforce and their work activities… anywhere, anytime.
