CloudSuite Industrial Service Management Mobile

Service Management Mobile acts as a delivery mechanism especially designed for mobile field service organizations that rely on a steady flow of incoming and outgoing data. Field technicians require access to centrally stored customer, service order, scheduling, and resolution data. A competitive advantage is gained by seamless integration between field technicians and back-office customer service, service logistics, and accounting systems. Service Management Mobile helps organizations speed response time, complete more service orders per day and provide superior customer service.


Service Management Mobile helps companies outfit their technicians with mobile handheld devices. As a delivery mechanism, it bridges the costly gap between the field and the back office. 

            

Service Management Mobile provides accurate and near real-time information, enabling field technicians, back-office users, and executives to make informed decisions.

Unique Infor CloudSuite Field Service Capabilities

A Mobile Service Work Order not only coordinates in-house production, but gives a real-time set of work instructions to the field service technician to complete a job such as capture costs of labor (based on skill level, certification, etc.), materials issued to a job, including transfers of one vehicle’s mobile inventory to another or drop-shipped items at the work site, attachment of pictures captured on the device, barcode/QR code inputs and an electronic invoice available for electronic signature after work is completed. All from the field in real-time. Should the connection to the internet go down (WiFi) all work is saved and transmitted once a connection is again restored (store and forward technology).

CloudSuite Industrial lets you track events that occur during the Estimating process and can keep all documentation involved attached to the Estimate.

Tracking Quality and Preventive Maintenance

Your customers require products made to their precise specifications. You require the same of your suppliers. You are equally committed to the same exacting level of quality within your company and across your entire organization. Infor CloudSuite Quality integrates best-in-class quality into the CloudSuite Industrial functions you already use to run your manufacturing operation.

 

Manage Your Suppliers: CloudSuite Quality helps track vendor communications and quality control (QC) status. CloudSuite Quality automatically calculates vendor product quality and delivery performance to help you build strong supplier relationships.


Predictive Maintenance: Tracking quality requirements during production often becomes a chore, what with the need to record the disposition of materials at multiple inspection points, track sign-offs, capture test results, record defects, and track items requiring rework or repair. CloudSuite Quality streamlines your entire process.


Many situations require you to track and inspect manufactured items piece-by-piece, according to serial number or tag number. In addition, CloudSuite Quality reports the cost of scrap including labor, material, and overhead. You can identify defective raw material at the point of use rather than at receipt, which helps you report the issue promptly. When you mark items as defective during manufacturing, CloudSuite Quality lets you track each nonconforming item and capture the associated costs of quality. In addition, when a job requires you to send material outside for processing, CloudSuite Quality prints paperwork to attach to the product when it leaves your facility and when it returns again.
