Facilities management means managing huge workloads – and collating data from a variety of sources for systems, planning and compliance, as well as the day to day processing required to maintain sites and manage employee workloads and working hours.
For many who work in facilities management, this vast and changeable workload relies on the management and contributions of both mobile and site-based teams to collect data and deliver services remotely – and most who work in this area are already familiar with mobile work order applications. Often, however, this means moving from one programme to another, and inputting information in multiple formats to ensure that it’s accessible to every key team member.
This is where the e-form platform from the team at Mobiess can simplify and streamline your workload, and offer you the advantages of bespoke e-forms, tailored to the specific information you need to collect and collate – and with at-a-touch reporting to pull key data from the data collected.
Real-time data organisation is vital for facilities management, and the e-form system we have designed allows your business to configure data collection apps which precisely map your unique business processes, allowing all of your employees to contribute to your mobile strategy, utilising the smartphone and tablet stock your team are already using.
Any process which has traditionally been carried out on paper, a time consuming task which then requires data entry so that the information can be assessed and tracked, can be adapted to the mobile e-form platform – allowing quicker response times, to-the-minute reporting and information sharing across your FM portfolio, and enabling the data to be collected, collated and assessed in real time.
This allows you to drive your business forward, streamline processes and reporting, and meet your compliance needs with less man-hours – and sharing information allows the team to measure their performance and ensure that there are no gaps in data.
Sometimes, the best way to truly understand what you can achieve is by looking at what your competitors are already doing; here are some of the common uses and benefits mobile forms are being used for in the facilities management industry today:
