What existing customers say about Mobile Worker
“Our planning officers previously worked using paper-based systems. Now they can go to a property and capture all of their required information on a tablet device and create a report. There’s no longer a need for these staff to go back to their offices to write up their work reports, as it is all available for them to complete on their mobile devices whilst deployed out in the field”
“I think we’ve probably got a saving of about 2 FTE which certainly covers the cost of the project but we’re expecting going forward that we will be able to make even greater savings from workforce optimisation.”
“It’s much more efficient and jobs are dealt with in real time now. Before, we had this 24 hour time lag before we printed jobs off. Then unless you had a very good memory you couldn’t necessarily remember who you’d given a particular job to, or when you’d given it to them and when they were supposed to complete it. My Council Services has all that stuff built in so you don’t have to remember everything. Everything is automated.”
Who will benefit?
The Mobile Worker suite is appropriate for any team that is required to access, manage and complete an assigned set of tasks or activities. This could be anything from dealing with ad hoc fly tip reports, completing a round of scheduled inspections of equipment or facilities through to the completion of a series of home or property visits. It can be applied to any council service functions where personnel are out and about in the field. We have many examples of successful mobile working being used by street scene, open spaces, public protection, and recycling and waste teams.
