But the real question is can these mobile form apps really help enterprises become more efficient and profitable? Read this blog to find out the surprising benefits that mobile form apps have got to offer!

ARE PAPER FORMS REALLY BEING REPLACED?

If you are an enterprise that deals with asset management, you would already know the challenges. Most of these pain points emerged from the paper-based approach that they were following

It is a true fact that paper forms still happen to be the core part of the data collection process even now

But, Did you know that enterprises are undergoing a digital transformation by using asset management apps for their asset management?

Here’s a typical scenario: any enterprise into field management services (FMS) or asset management have to send inspectors to the site or field by assigning jobs on paper documents

These inspectors would spend the whole day on the field carrying the inspection along with collecting the required data on the paper forms. These forms reach offices by late evening along with timesheets, repair request forms, etc

How Easy is it With Mobile Forms?

What is interesting is that with enterprise mobility, companies have cut down on errors to a large scale. This has resulted in better compliance for different processes including asset management. Managers now have the capability to audit the data captured in real-time

It’s no wonder that field teams using mobile form apps are capturing data faster. Features like auto-fill, radio buttons, skip logic, etc. allow the teams to fill the forms faster and skip repetitive sections of the forms

Enterprises have achieved multiple goals by embracing mobile forms. They could even improve the customer satisfaction levels significantly

Time spent on administrative tasks was also brought down for managers who could now focus on strategic decision-making

From Just Data to Rich Data Collection

The advantages of using mobile form apps are multi-fold. Now inspection teams are able to click the pictures of the asset and embed them in their digital forms

These pictures can even have annotation – to add better descriptions about the asset. Just imagine how difficult it must have been for team collecting data on paper forms

Describing the condition of the asset by writing for pages, and still not being able to make the point. Now, just capture a photo & mark it – it’s done!

Not just this, there are other features of  mobile form app that have empowered the teams like never before

Rich data collection allows audio & video capture. Adding timestamps, locations, and signature on the eforms through mobile apps have brought a greater degree of transparency and visibility for teams, managers, and even customers

Field technicians, inspectors, and auditors are now able to collect the data even when offline. The data gets submitted when the internet connectivity is restored later

Enterprises can schedule tasks for the technicians, inspectors, and auditors who receive the notifications on the apps – so that no appointment is missed ever

Concerned teammates receive notification on their mobile app for the task that they have to complete – it might be a repair job generated by the inspector during his inspection
