How Your Operation Can Benefit From Mobile Forms Software
No matter your industry or team size, there are countless ways your operation can benefit from a mobile forms software, like GoFormz.
Implementing mobile forms software can help your business realize its full potential, alleviating the burdens of manual data capture and form processing so your team can use their time in more productive, impactful ways.
Streamlined and elevated communication
With teams collaborating across job sites, franchise locations, remote work locations, and more, communication can quickly become difficult. Forms often can take days (or even weeks) to be delivered from different locations, resulting in miscommunication, processing delays, and a variety of other complications. Leveraging a mobile forms software solution can quickly alleviate these obstacles by allowing teams to access submitted forms and data in real-time.
Faster form completion
Your mobile forms solution can also help expedite the completion of forms. Mobile forms can be easily equipped with fields and features to minimize data entry demands. For example, forms can be dispatched pre-filled with information (even information pulled from integrated applications, like Salesforce, Procore, and Microsoft 365) to teams in the field. Users can also make selections from Drop Down menus or scan Barcodes, and instantly populate corresponding fields with highly accurate data. Features like instant Calculations can also be leveraged to automatically provide totals, eliminating the need for manual math. With forms completed faster, data can reach the people and places that need it most more efficiently.
Fewer errors and mistakes
Form logic can also help to minimize human error, saving your operation time spent correcting errors. Dynamic Field Properties can be used to make form fields interactive, guiding data entry and ensuring form fields are completed prior to submission. Automatic Calculations can help to simplify the calculation of important figures, reducing opportunities for costly human error. Selections made from Database fields, like Drop Down menus and Barcode Scanning, can also be used to minimize error, by automatically populating fields with information, effectively reducing opportunities for misspellings, inaccurate data, or missing information.
Improved business agility
Implementing mobile forms software can also help your team more precisely pinpoint obstacles, opportunities, and areas to be optimized. For example, Oldcastle used insight from a digital quality control form in GoFormz to uncover wasted painting costs in their bathroom production process. During a typical project, a bathroom ceiling gets painted three times throughout the assembly process, however, factory workers reported instances where the fourth coat of paint was added at the end of the assembly. They noted that the extra coat of paint covered marks and scratches that occurred during the final production phase. Because this data was reported digitally with GoFormz, management could run reports to determine that the extra coat was applied 90% of the time. They decided to shift the third coat of paint to the end of the assembly line, eliminating the fourth coat altogether. As a result, Oldcastle saved $500K in paint costs per year.
