Traditional Workflow
Utility field work traditionally requires substantial paperwork and considerable communication with central office
Processes require multiple trips to a central location, paper-based recordkeeping, and manual data entry
The potential for data errors, inclement weather, and other factors that wreak havoc with paperwork always exists
Current economic situations reinforce the need for more overall efficiency in the field

“… you eliminate paper and having to hand-enter information…reduces data-entry errors, lost tickets and
paper handling. It also increases the number of tickets you can complete in a day. Beyond that, it cuts down trips to
the office, which is a big plus as fuel costs rise.”
