Enable Field Technicians with Mobile Inventory Management
In the field, your technicians need the right parts and equipment to complete work orders effectively. Whether the parts are already on the truck or back at the warehouse, the Field Squared Mobile Application provides mobile inventory management, allowing your field workforce to:
- Increase efficiency by leveraging native GIS to locate parts nearby
- Scan barcodes to pull up parts to check availability
- Easily maintains serial numbers and supports lot numbers
- Help reduce waste by accurately accounting for parts used
- View a list of parts on the truck, at the warehouse, or wherever parts and equipment are stored
Track Inventory Movements in Real-Time
Knowing who has which parts can be time-consuming without the right software. With Field Squared, you can track real-time inventory movements, including across multiple storage locations.
For instance, a technician installs parts at a customer site—they may even be rented parts. A few days later, they find they don’t need the parts, so they transfer them back to the warehouse to be used at another customer site.
To help with loss prevention, inventory transfers automatically create an audit trail stamped with the location, date, time, and user. If you need to verify and audit when a situation arises, you know the where, when, and who for every nut, bolt, cable, power tool, or part you have in inventory.
Schedule Jobs Knowing You Have the Parts On Hand
Scheduling and dispatching technicians to job sites involves more than picking a date and time. You need to know that your field worker has the right parts and equipment when you schedule the job.
Field Squared inventory management capabilities can help you increase the number of work orders technicians complete by ensuring they have the right parts before you schedule the job. By reducing repeat visits, you also improve customer satisfaction, getting the job done right the first time.
Easily Conduct More Accurate Inventory Reviews
Keeping track of every minute part or piece of inventory can be time-consuming, and you probably need to conduct regular reviews across your entire inventory. Depending on your inventory management strategy, Field Squared provides the capabilities to help you conduct more accurate inventory reviews.
