Top 10 Mobile Forms for Manufacturing

Streamline your manufacturing workflows with digital forms and data capture

Paper forms burden your manufacturing workflows with countless manual tasks, like hand-delivering forms, rekeying data, filing documents, and so much more. These manual, tedious tasks often result in detrimental delays, making it difficult to run a lean operation.

With mobile manufacturing forms, your team can more expediently gather critical manufacturing data, resulting in improved efficiencies, more timely insights, and increased communication. To jumpstart your manufacturing operation’s digital transformation, check out the top ten mobile forms for manufacturing:

Quote
Instantly calculate proposed production totals and rapidly provide customers with highly professional, digital Quotes. Rather than waiting on back-office counterparts to complete manual calculations before hand-delivering Quotes to a prospective customer, instantly generate Quotes and highly accurate calculations, anywhere (allowing for faster approvals and processing!).

Timesheets
Mobile forms allow your team to quickly and accurately enter hours worked, straight from their phone or tablet. These mobile Timesheets can be equipped with Automatic Calculations, to instantly provide highly accurate totals – reducing opportunities for human error. Mobile Timesheet fields can even be configured to change color (e.g. red) if additional work hours are entered, effortlessly highlighting overtime hours.

Work Orders
Effortlessly input projected staffing needs, costs of labor and raw materials, and more, with digital Work Orders. Instantly fill corresponding form fields with information captured within an initial Quote, like customer contact information. Leverage Table fields to clearly define labor, material, and equipment needs for production. With GoFormz Workflows, route PDF copies of completed Work Orders to customers, colleagues, and partners, or upload completed forms to connected applications, like Box, ServiceMax, Salesforce, Quickbooks, and more.

Safety Inspections & Briefings
Mobile forms are a fast and effective way of improving workplace safety. With Required Signature fields, ensure that all necessary personnel has authorized their completion of mandatory compliance exercises, like daily safety briefings, equipment inspections, and more. With Image fields, easily capture onsite hazards using your device’s camera. Once Safety Inspections have been completed, they can be instantly routed to supervisors (no matter their location) or Automatically Tagged with a warehouse, department, or user name, for easy location and form recall.

Material Inspections
Improve your Incoming Quality Control (IQC) process with mobile manufacturing forms. With digital Material Inspection forms, ensure incoming raw materials meet quality standards and are delivered in the correct quantity. With mobile forms, easily highlight noted material defects with Image fields and annotations. With Barcode Scanning, product information can be easily populated within corresponding fields, allowing for the rapid entry of SKU numbers, product names, supplier information, and more. If a quality issue must be addressed, your mobile Material Inspection form can be easily routed to suppliers, detailing the precise issue.

Quality Assurance Checklist
Rapidly complete QA/QC reviews with digital Quality Assurance Checklists. With mobile manufacturing forms, teams can monitor incoming quality assurance data in real-time, allowing users to promptly address quality concerns or defects. Leverage Checkbox Groups to easily manage checklist selection options and allow users to rapidly select QA/QC tasks they have completed. With the GoFormz Reporting Tool, QA/QC trends and obstacles can be easily identified, improving business agility and productivity.
