Challenges in Field Operations
Time Consuming and Slow Process
Paper Maps – collect from office –submit to office
Paper Maps not up-to-date
Difficulty in locating right assets and property
No guidance for optimal route
No information on weather and traffic
Supervisor Control
Delayed reporting of field users to the office
Delays in information update to corporate server and subsequent actions
Management
No control or monitoring of work hours of field workers
Delays in information update to corporate server and subsequent actions
Operational Cost very high

Day in a life of field user!
What are the work orders for the Day?
What are the actual location of the work orders?
What is my current location on map?
What are possible routes to reach the WO location from current location?
Can I attach the photo or video file with asset?
Can I collect the data in offline mode and sync the data to server once connected?
What is the current traffic and weather update at work order location?
Can I see the engineering document attached to asset?
