Benefits to your organization from Straight-Line can come in many forms
including increased productivity, greater accountability and improved data
accuracy. This affordable solution can
be customized and implemented for just about any field-based function in a
matter of hours or days, rather than the weeks or months that are typical with
customized software. Read on to learn
more about how your organization can benefit from the power of Straight-Line.
Straight-Line to Increased Productivity:
Straight-Line can make your field staff more productive
than ever by reducing the number of steps often associated with traditional
field work processes. If your field
staff completes paper forms in the field and later enters the form information
in a computer back at the office, Straight-Line can eliminate the need to data
enter the form back at the office. With
Straight-Line, field workers utilize a wireless device to complete forms at the
job site and then move the completed forms via cellular or wireless networks
from the device to the central server.
Data also flows from the central server to the wireless devices to
provide field workers the most up-to-date information and enable the home
office to issue new work orders and improve communications with field
staff. Straight-Line enables mobile
professionals to stay mobile, greatly reducing the need to spend valuable time
driving to and from the office.
Straight-Line to Reduced Costs:
The cost savings of automating
paper forms processing is enormous.
Recent studies have shown that automation of paper forms can save
between $120 and $150 per electronic forms transaction when compared to paper
forms. Straight-Line enables any
organization to quickly automate their paper form processing to produce savings
right away.
Straight-Line to Greater Accountability-
Straight-Line logs a complete audit trail of all tasks
that are viewed on a device, entered on a device, sent to a device or deleted
off a device. Organizations can track specific time intervals from the time a
task is assigned to a resource to the time the task is completed and all the
steps and times in-between. Accompanied
with the optional GPS tracking feature, an organization can track task
completion times with actual task completion locations within 6 inches if
needed, enabling you to determine if resources are where they are supposed to
be, doing what they are supposed to be doing when they are supposed to be doing
it.
Straight-Line to Available Data
Straight-Line gets data to you fast. Instead of hours or days between the time
when field work is completed and the time data is entered in your central
system, Straight-Line gets the data to you as soon as field workers complete a
form. This provides you with more
current data which can help you better serve your customers and enable you to
make better informed decisions.
Straight-Line to Improved Data Accuracy
Straight-Line can provide you with more accurate and more
complete data than you ever had from traditional field work processes. By putting Straight-Line in the hands of your
field staff, you can ensure that forms are completed entirely and within
specific guidelines. No matter how
complicated your forms are, Straight-Line can be configured to prompt users
through your entire form fulfillment process to ensure forms are completely
filled out. And data validation rules
may be implemented thereby limiting the acceptable responses that can be
entered this featured coupled with Straight-Lines ability to auto-fill forms
greatly reduces the need to for data entry and associated errors.
Straight-Line to Adaptability
Straight-Line is designed to work with your existing
systems regardless of their complexity or type of technology. And whether you have one simple form or many
complicated forms, Straight-Line can be configured to handle all of them. Forms can be created to suit your particular
needs and, if needed, can branch to other forms based upon user responses. You are provided the means to change forms
and create new forms over the internet and independent of the Straight-Line
application. Further, Straight-Line
works with any computer device that runs on a Microsoft operating system
including laptops, desktops, Tablet PC’s and Pocket PC’s. It is like getting a software solution
developed just for you without incurring the high costs or length development time
typically associated with custom software development.
Straight-Line to Usability
Straight-Line enables a non-technical computer user to set
up new forms for remote computing quickly and easily. There is no database design and no
replication engine design necessary on your part to create and distribute new
forms. All form creation and editing is
done on the Internet so there is no need to install complicated software on
your computer. All that is needed is a
connection to the internet. Likewise,
for your field staff, forms can be configured to maximize usability. This can reduce the time to complete forms
and enable users that are just beginning to use handheld or tablet devices to
be productive immediately.
Straight-Line to No Down Time
With Straight-Line, if there is no cellular or wireless
network signal, no problem. Straight-Line’s disconnected solution guarantees
100% productivity 100% of the time. When Straight-Line locates a signal it
automatically updates data between the device and the central server.
