Offline Handbooks

Ensuring your team has the latest SOPs, policies and information about your organisation is traditionally achieved by providing a PDF or printed handbook. This method works fine once, but becomes wasteful and time consuming when changes need to be made. By packaging your team's handbook into a digital application, you can take advantage of the features such as:

• Updates are synced to all team members; no outdated information exists
• Offline search to quickly find the correct information
• Full edit history for auditing purposes
• Different access levels depending on the team member's role

Digital Maps

Digital maps have many advantages over traditional paper maps. Often paper maps are difficult to obtain and annotations have to be replicated on every team member's map. Digital maps packaged into a team application have a number of advantages over traditional paper maps:

• Map tiles are instantly available to team members
• Annotations such as points-of-interest and hazards are instantly synced to all team members
• Multiple layers (street, topographic, satellite) can be packaged into one map

Field Survey and Inspection Apps

Paper-based field surveys and inspection forms are slow to distribute to members, and result in wastage when a change needs to be made and all current forms become void. Digital field survey and inspection apps have advantages over paper-based forms, such as:

• Instant distribution to team members via a URL or QR code
• No obsolete forms; all changes are synced live to team members
• Data collation can commence before team members have returned from the field
