The Challenge
Ensuring efficient planning and scheduling of the jobs to skilled team members was proving difficult. The use of a basic calendar tool that limited the ability to provide comprehensive customer details, job notes or associated paperwork for completion was not a long term, viable option.Combining this difficult with the fact that a number of forms and reports that RJ Power Group require on a daily basis, this made their processes long and time consuming. Forms were paper based and were for installation and maintenance checks, as well as HV and LV checks, and detailed power generator reports. These were being completed on site for jobs on paper and then taken back to the office for data re-entry.This lengthy process of re-entering job data entailed the interpretation of hand written forms, entering of this job data into their system and client records along with images that were captured by separate devices which had to be uploaded individually.With the need for strict health and safety and risk assessments for the HV equipment they work on, this also added to the time consuming paperwork required to meet regulations and they were left with a lot of administration and unnecessary data re-entry at the end of each day.
