			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Service based businesses have to make miracles happen every day. Service managers, dispatchers, operations managers are in charge of monitoring and managing the flow of work out in the field. The only thing that is constant in this environment is <strong>change</strong>. When change happens, and it will&#8230; administering this task on paper becomes almost <strong>IMPOSSIBLE</strong>.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s look at a simple example.</p>
<p>ABC Company utilizes an office based work order scheduling application. Daily work orders are entered into this system, scheduled to a mobile worker, printed out, picked up and everyone goes out and completes their work&#8230;right?</p>
<p>What happens when you have last minute changes to today&#8217;s schedule? For example, a customer calls and cancels, an emergency job comes in, someone called in sick, leaving you to juggle everything and find someone to complete the work. This can be a real problem, especially without having the appropriate systems and technology in place to help.</p>
<p>Here are some common questions that need to be answered.<br />
<span id="more-1066"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>What skills are required to complete this task?</li>
<li>Who has these skills?</li>
<li>Are they available?</li>
<li>What parts are needed?</li>
<li>Who has these parts?</li>
<li>Does the person with the right skills, have the right parts?</li>
<li>If not how can I get this person what they need?</li>
<li>How do I notify this mobile worker about the change in their schedule?</li>
<li>How do I provide the mobile worker with all of the historical information about the job?</li>
</ul>
<p>The point is that service based businesses have to continually juggle multiple conflicting priorities. Without the means to manage this flow of work, management has a lot to worry about. The good news is that <a href="http://mobileframe.com" target="_blank"><strong>MobileFrame</strong></a><strong> </strong>is here to help service organizations easily manage the complexities associated with mobilizing that constantly changing data. We have all of the tools required to help your company implement a mobile system to enable real-time communications, provide up to the second status updates, track parts, schedule work orders, re-schedule work orders and much more.</p>

<p>This week we were visiting with a prospective client who collects soil samples out in the field. In addition to collecting a wide variety of different types of measurements related to the soil, they also need to collect information about the current weather. This weather data ideally is then saved along with the soil sample data. Apparently the lack of a standardized method for collecting and saving this information has lead to significant challenges for both the customers of this company as well as the office staff.<br />
Here’s a look at what was going on:<br />
<span id="more-1053"></span><br />
1. Engineers were <strong>guessing</strong> what the weather conditions were, which was leading to <strong>inaccurate</strong> data collected. In turn, this inaccurate data was provided to customers.</p>
<p>2. Engineers with smart phones were checking the weather online, but many times they would get the weather for the wrong location. This also lead to <strong>inaccurate</strong> data.</p>
<p>3. Other engineers were completely ignoring the collection of this information and were sending the forms back to the office with these fields blank. Since this information is required the back office staff would go online and see what the weather was for that particular day. Unfortunately because they have no way of accurately determining what the time was when the soil sample was collected, you guessed it, <strong>inaccurate</strong> data was being collected.</p>
<p>Good thing for the client that they heard about the “<a href="http://blog.mobileframe.com/goingmobile/the-mobileframe-application-challenge-send-us-your-forms">MobileFrame Application Challenge</a>”! They called and described their situation to us and we were able to create the app in less than an hour. We gave them a demo the very same day, which solved all of their issues.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We had a tremendous turnout for our <a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/Media/Webinars.html" target="_blank">Facilities Management Webinar</a> with over 100 attendees, spread over 3 different continents. Thank you for your participation!  During this hour long education session our panel of experts discussed the latest trends in <strong>facilities management</strong>,<strong> building operations</strong> and <strong>mobile business process optimization</strong>. Registrants were exposed to the benefits of mobile computing, some of the common challenges associated with going mobile and were introduced to technologies that bridge the gap between the office and the field.</p>
<p>In this webinar we showed our <a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/solutions/archibus.html" target="_blank">prebuilt work order management solution that’s fully integrated into Archibus</a>, but the same set of apps could easily be integrated to any backend system you have.</p>
<p>Here’s a recap of what was covered:</p>
<p>Operations Managers, Facilities Managers, and Property Managers are charged with collecting and reporting on a wide variety of different types of data. This data needs to be <strong>collected</strong> out in the field, <strong>returned</strong> to the office, and <strong>entered</strong> into the primary back office business application. This manual collection process always creates significant operational challenges.<br />
<span id="more-1044"></span><br />
Some of the challenges Include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Data collection errors</li>
<li>Significant labor hours spent manually entering data in the backend system</li>
<li>Paper forms are not returned back to the office</li>
<li>Office staff cannot read the mobile worker’s handwriting</li>
<li>Document storage and retrieval</li>
<li>Additional useful information isn’t captured (eg. Pictures, Videos, Voice Notes)</li>
<li>Management is stuck making decisions using old, inaccurate data.</li>
<li>Historical information about equipment, assets, past inspections, cannot be referenced</li>
</ul>
<p>The good news is that there are solutions to this problem. ALL of our customers who grew tired of this error prone way of conducting their business have been able to completely eliminate paper based field data collection.</p>
<p>Some of the different types of mobile applications our customers have automated include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Work Requests</li>
<li>Building Operations</li>
<li>Panel Legends</li>
<li>Lease Abstracts</li>
<li>Life Safety Inspections</li>
<li>Records Center Management</li>
<li>Time Tracking</li>
<li>Asset Management</li>
<li>Property Record Management</li>
</ul>
<p>With all of these different types of data being collected, manipulated, and entered into your back office system it is important to have a mobile computing platform that allows for the automation of any kind of mobile business process. Think of all of the different paper forms that are in use today, our solution can take those existing forms and mobilize them using our 100% Code Free Development Environment. The best part is that we include all of the tools you would need to ensure a successful mobile deployment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As many of our readers already know, <a href="http://mobileframe.com" target="_blank">MobileFrame</a> is all about solving problems. In this case we are solving the problem of how to deliver real time turn-by-turn driving directions to mobile workers. To address this problem we are now offering a pre-built mobile configurable application that delivers real-time driving directions. <strong>Here is the best part: this application can be integrated into any existing MobileFrame application or used stand alone.<a href="http://blog.mobileframe.com/wp-content/uploads/image.png"><img class="alignright" style="display: inline; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;" title="image" src="http://blog.mobileframe.com/wp-content/uploads/image_thumb.png" border="0" alt="image thumb MobileFrame’s Turn By Turn Driving Directions App" width="181" height="240" /></a> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s how it works:</strong></p>
<p>1. Enter the Destination Address</p>
<p>2. Enter Starting Address or Leverage Current GPS Position</p>
<p>3. Click Get Directions&#8230;</p>
<p>4. <a href="http://mobileframe.com" target="_blank">MobileFrame Returns Real Time Driving Directions, based upon the most efficient route.</a><br />
<span id="more-1033"></span><br />
It&#8217;s really that simple. So the next time you’re on the phone talking to one of your lost technicians trying to tell them how to get from Appointment #1 to Appointment #2, remember there is a better way to help them.</p>
<p>MobileFrame’s solution will help you to eliminate your existing paper based processes, streamline operations and free up your time so you can focus on more important tasks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love talking to prospects about how MobileFrame can solve their problems and today I had a very interesting conversation that I thought I’d share. I was chatting with a prospect who was interested in replacing an old system that they have been using for the past 3 years. I was amazed to hear that their most annoying problem is getting new devices provisioned and sent out into the field.   <strong>Apparently their current software vendor forces them to deal with 45+ different cab files! They have a different file for each device model, OS, configuration, etc.</strong></p>
<p>He said it is a <strong>nightmare</strong> to look through these different CAB files to find the exact right one for the device that they are loading. He said they waste hours on this every time they go to roll-out new devices….</p>
<p>The good news is that MobileFrame has the answer.<br />
<span id="more-1007"></span><br />
When provisioning a new device with MobileFrame the process is simple:</p>
<ol>
<li>You run the MobileFrame Client Installer, which loads the software onto the device.</li>
<li>Once completed you launch the MobileFrame client on the device, enter in your credentials and synchronize.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Here is where the magic happens:</strong></p>
<p><strong>Upon the first synchronization MobileFrame AUTOMATICALLY detects what kind of device you are using and dynamically downloads the correct device drivers to make all of the peripherals function properly.</strong></p>
<p>That means that the camera, barcode scanner, RFID Reader, mag stripe reader, etc. just work right out the box and you don’t need to waste countless hours trying to find the right cab file. If you think this is pretty slick you might be interested in taking us up on a live demonstration. This is just one of many features that are built into our software that ensure you will have a successful deployment. We’d be happy to show you how easy it is to build, manage, and deploy custom mobile applications. <a href="http://blog.mobileframe.com/contact-us" target="_blank"><strong>Click here to arrange your personalized Demonstration of our capabilities</strong></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was chatting with one of our valued partners today, and we got into a very interesting discussion regarding the adoption of field based mobile computing. It appears as if we have both stumbled upon the same problem. The apparent disconnect between automating office based paper processes, and field based paper processes. This discussion really made me think.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>“Why don’t businesses value mobile computing like they value office based computing?”</strong></p>
<p>For years companies have been using computers in the office to aid in the functions necessary to run the daily operations of the business.</p>
<p>For Example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bookkeeping / Accounting</li>
<li>AR / AP</li>
<li>Payroll</li>
<li>E-mail</li>
<li>Customer Activity Tracking</li>
<li>Sales Performance Tracking</li>
<li>Resource Scheduling</li>
<li>Creating, assigning, and closing Work Orders</li>
<li>Ordering Parts</li>
<li>Updating Spreadsheets</li>
<li>Etc.</li>
</ul>
<p><span id="more-948"></span><br />
<strong>Could you imagine if each of these various office based functions were on paper and needed to be managed the same way field data is?</strong> As odd as it seems, it appears that these organizations just haven’t thought about the benefits of extending the reach of their many business systems out into the field. <a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/Products/Products.html" target="_blank">Mobile applications, specifically those built using </a><strong><a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/Products/Products.html" target="_blank">MobileFrame, </a></strong><a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/Products/Products.html" target="_blank"> have the capability to easily extend the data contained in each of these systems to the mobile worker</a>. Once the information is received the mobile worker is able to interact with the data to <strong>make better decisions faster</strong>, and with <strong>minimal impact to the office staff</strong>. Increasing the productivity of the Mobile Worker is just one of the areas mobile computing can assist an organization.</p>
<p>Here are some of the other benefits of Mobile Computing:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Increase number of jobs performed, customers visited, etc</strong></li>
<li><strong>Eliminate redundant manual data entry and data transcription errors, reducing clerical data entry costs</strong></li>
<li><strong>Provide real-time access to data in the field, ensuring workers have the information they need, when they need it</strong></li>
<li><strong>Reduce invoice and accounts receivable lag time</strong></li>
<li><strong>Improve customer service</strong></li>
<li><strong>Increase time spent in the field by eliminating the need to return to the office to complete paperwork</strong></li>
<li><strong>Increase efficiency and productivity of field workers</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>If those bullet points didn’t capture your attention, how does a <strong>$7.5 Million dollar ROI while eliminating 7000 sheets of paper on a weekly basis sound? Miller Pipeline sure didn’t mind. </strong>To hear more about Miller Pipeline&#8217;s implementation, please watch the following video. <a href="http://vimeo.com/11263058" target="_blank"><strong>Miller Pipeline Customer Success Story</strong></a></p>

<p><span id="more-939"></span><br />
One of the customers told me<strong> <a href="http://www.mobileframe.com/Products/Features.html" target="_blank">“I need an application that is either built by your team or ours that meets our specifications. BUT, we also need to be able to make changes to it in minutes and redeploy it to the field in seconds if business conditions dictate.”</a></strong> He then said “I’ve never seen anything like MobileFrame before and I can tell you that this is the most impressive application development environment that I’ve ever seen. You even have all of the needed support tools in place to help my team manage the implementation after its deployed.”</p>
<p>If you would like to learn more about MobileFrame and how we can help you design, build, deploy, and manage the “Perfect” Application, please <a href="http://blog.mobileframe.com/contact-us" target="_blank"><strong>contact us</strong></a>.</p>
