Appfy

See all cases

The idea was paper work orders on the mechanic's phone.

A mechanic, a service order on paper.

Mechanics previously received paper work orders.

The problem
Mechanics previously received paper work orders and executed their maintenance workflow from them. Estimate: 20 mechanics × 4 orders a day × 6 minutes to note, return and type each sheet = 8 hours a day, one person's whole day spent on paper alone (figures: assumption).
What Appfy did
The application allowed mechanics to consult warehouse-related information. Mechanics could enter maintenance observations using their voice.
The gain
The project aimed to modernize maintenance work orders, replacing a paper-based mechanic workflow with a mobile application.

    Does your team still work on paper? Put the order on the phone.

    If your team works away from the office, in the field or where the signal fails, Appfy puts the paper on the phone and connects every record to your system. Start with a free 30-minute conversation.
