There are a number of businesses in the fieldwork industry that benefit from custom field app design. Web applications have been rising in popularity due to their ability to significantly increase functionality and to reduce costs for businesses that dispatch and deploy employees or products. Some of the businesses that benefit from field app design include warehousing offices and fleets, cable and other technician based companies and mobile healthcare services.
Warehousing and Fleet Management App Design
The warehousing industry is complex and many businesses within this field are always looking for ways to make their time more efficient, to improve communication from dispatch to deliver and to enhance the customer experience. Field app development and custom fleet management app design play a number of vital roles within this industry including:
- Data collection software development provides internal operations with the data and knowledge they need to continuously grow their business. Having data at the company’s fingertips, in an easy to understand and access format, makes accounting and reporting easy and keeps inventory stocked and readily available for customers.
- Fleet management software design can keep track of company vehicles in real-time. One of the benefits of this is the ability to inform customers when their order may be delivered. This is especially appreciated when dealing with B2B rush order transactions.
- Warehousing businesses can have a wide variety of information readily available at their fingertips. This improves customer service and streamlines the sales process.
Technician Based Field Work Apps
Many businesses such as cable companies deploy technicians to visit and complete work on-site. There are custom fieldwork apps that allow the technician to show catalogues of products to customers from a tablet. This is very useful and saves the time and inconvenience of sending a customer to their desk to view information.
Technicians can also have new job orders delivered
to them via text to save time and to avoid going to the office in between jobs.
This makes the workday for efficient and saves cost in hourly wages and fuel.
Mobile Healthcare PHI Apps
PHI apps (personal health information) apps are on the rise in healthcare for the ability to transmit patient data from doctor to nurse or from the patient to the healthcare team. In addition to vehicle tracking, tablet catalogue displays and data gathering, a mobile healthcare team will benefit from custom PHI apps that are HIPAA compliant. This ensures that healthcare businesses improve their customer experience, enhance their internal operations and still remain within the code of personal data collection standards that the industry requires and expects.
