The Challenge
Associated Fire Protection Ltd, a family business established in 1983, has grown significantly over the years, expanding its services to include Fire Alarm & Emergency Lighting Maintenance, Portable appliance testing, Staff Training, and Fire Risk Assessment. However, the company was struggling with the management of its inspection paperwork, worksheets, and certificates. The process was time-consuming and inefficient, hindering the company's ability to respond quickly to customer demands. The company also faced challenges in scheduling jobs, managing assets, and maintaining compliance standards. The lack of a centralized system for managing client details, appointments, contracts, and assets was a significant challenge. The company needed a solution that could streamline these processes, improve efficiency, and enable real-time response to customer demands.
The Solution
Associated Fire Protection Ltd chose FIELDMOTION to digitize and streamline their operations. FIELDMOTION reproduced and streamlined all inspection paperwork and worksheets, and automatically generated certificates for clients upon completion of appointments. The solution provided a centralized system where all client details, appointments, contracts, and assets were available at the touch of a button. The mobile app allowed field staff to fill in job details on-site, and invoices and certificates could be emailed to customers immediately. The solution also included a job scheduling feature that automated routines and increased efficiency. The planned preventative maintenance feature helped manage assets and meet compliance standards. The mobile app, with its offline working capability, enabled technicians to access full site history of any assets repair and service reports, helping them solve problems quicker. The customer portal provided transparency and improved customer satisfaction. The quoting feature allowed for instant job approval and quicker quote conversions.
