There are two parts to GeoPal, a mobile app and a web management system.

The mobile app is used to replace paper-based survey forms

allowing field employees to work smarter and faster.

How it works – Web Management System

There are two parts to GeoPal, a mobile app and a web management system.

The web management system streamlines scheduling and operations,

providing visibility, detailed data and real-time reports

for improved business insight and decision making.

• Used to configure mobile forms and workflows, manage assets, schedule and dispatch jobs.

• Track the location of field workers, assets, customers on an interactive map.

• Customize, schedule and analyse reports and data collected in the field in real-time.

GeoPal creates significant efficiencies in managing field work, which often introduce

operational improvements in other areas of the business.

Increased accuracy and speed of transfer of information collected in the field to the office

allows real-time visibility and control of operations.

“Using GeoPal decreases returns to the job site – engineers don’t have

to go back and visit the site if they missed something, because all the

information is captured accurately first time and reported instantly.”

For surveys and audits on multiple sites, the information is entered accurately at source,

meaning the time and cost savings achieved by eliminating return site visits is significant.

Streamline Operations

GeoPal ensures all information is verified with time, date and location-stamps, providing

detailed records for monitoring or auditing work completed, to enhance performance and

compliance of all field workers, internal or outsourced.

“On the initial survey our own surveyors used paper to capture the data and

then keyed it in to their laptops - this was very slow. For the second batch we

used agency staff and GeoPal - it was much quicker. We had the additional

benefit with GeoPal of being able to look over the route-replay history of the

agency staff – we could see where they were, handy to check compliance”

Location monitoring ensures a reduction in time-theft, improving productivity of workers.

The intuitive nature of the mobile app also ensures outsourced teams require less training,

and standardized mobile forms regulate the accuracy of field data captured.

Improve Productivity & Compliance

“GeoPal gives us a direct feed of data collection as it is happening in the field.

We get to see immediately if there are issues. It speeds up both data collection and

the processing of information, and allows us to give a better product to our clients.”
