We understand that to transform your business, realize new opportunities, handle change, and deliver high quality products and services, you need your people to be engaged and committed in what they do. Paramount to this is having the ability to work while on the move, using a mobile device of preference.
We also offer a series of everyday mobile business apps designed to make tasks like timesheet and expense submission as quick and simple as possible.
As the mobile device market reaches saturation point, mobile operating systems are becoming more robust and secure, ready to handle enterprise-level business. Enterprise software vendors involved in ERP, EAM and FSM are also evolving their products to enable more mobile computing. This Technology Evaluation Centers report covers:
To make sure IFS Applications works on your terms - and the devices you like to use - the main user experience - IFS Aurena - is designed to be responsive in ways not normally associated with business applications.
Covering the full functional scope of IFS Applications, IFS Aurena adapts to screen sizes and device capabilities in the same way you expect from well-designed consumer software. It is available in browsers on Windows, Mac, iOS or Android devices. This means that you can enjoy the same powerful functionality on phone, tablet or desktop - pages adapt automatically to suit your needs.
The responsive behavior goes beyond simply reflowing the layout into a different number of columns, according to screen size. For example, if you’re working on smaller devices, where space is at a premium, columns are intelligently removed so that the most important information is still visible. On phones, the buttons move from the top to the bottom of the screen so that they are closer to your thumb when holding your phone with one hand.
For field service organizations, empowering service technicians and increasing workforce productivity are some of the main drivers to increased customer satisfaction and profitability. IFS Mobile Work Order, built on our new IFS Aurena Native mobile framework provides all the capability a field technician needs in a highly configurable app that can be tailored to your processes without the need for customization. Field technicians have access to all the customer and equipment details, documentation, inventory and task related information they need to ensure their work is done right first time in the most efficient way to provide service that delights your customers. Our framework includes offline capability that ensures service can be delivered regardless of network coverage.
In Maintenance, both site-based and disparately-located engineers need the right information available to them to undertake preventive and reactive work on high value assets in an efficient and effective manner. Here, we offer a maintenance-specific version of IFS Mobile Work Order, centered around the equipment being maintained with offline capability whilst also offering our Technician Portals - a responsive online application that provides all the capability of mobile work order with a simple, quick to deploy architecture that lets you get up and running in minutes.
