A new work management solution for field workers has been introduced by Trimble. The solution, GeoManager WorkManagement, provides on-demand visibility into vehicles and mobile workers, including routing, scheduling, and dispatch.
The system allows dispatchers to monitor workers’ progress on the day against a pre-set plan, allowing them to change appointment times if necessary.
WorkManagement includes a work advisor and in-day planner for rapid communication response as well as the ability to re-optimize routes and workload; WorkManagement Mobile that supports a variety of browser-based smart phones, tablets, and ruggedized PDAs; performance manager, which offers real-time analysis of mobile work status; fleet management to assist in managing worker productivity; and web services which allow for integration with third-party systems, including Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
