PDA Automated Data Collection

Turning data into knowledge

This solution from Serversys enables you to define and deploy a PDA data capture solution quickly and cost effectively. Our unique core data “engine” leverages the wireless connection (using GPRS/3G and WiFi), GPS positioning and photographic capabilities of Windows Mobile® based devices. This allows you to create a fully-customised process and automate your point-of-origin data collection, making deployment of field-based tasks such as auditing or surveying, effortless and timely.

 

This easy-to-configure PDA data capture solution helps you increase the efficiency and accuracy of any audit and verification processes. Instantly connect with field workers, using powerful hand-held PDA technologies to dramatically speed-up transactions and gain idiate access to the data they generate or collect.

 

Use in-built GPS positioning and voice communications to further enhance the productivity or responsiveness of your field workforce. Once a job is completed, users can confirm customer acceptance, notify the office, upload customer satisfaction information and receive notification of the next task. The “2-way” nature of this technology ensures that non-conformance issues can be raised, distributed and owned by field-based personnel, then managed and tracked through to satisfactory closure.

 

Companies have successfully deployed the Serversys PDA data capture solution to gain e-enabled efficiency improvements in a variety of automated data collection applications, including:

  • ‘track and trace’ auditing
  • location driven job allocation and monitoring
  • non-conformance reporting — includes photographic evidence for auditing purposes
  • health and safety audits
  • waste management auditing
  • customer satisfaction surveys.

The solution supports almost any automated data collection, management and distribution model, including the delivery of real-time data reporting via a website. Select from a choice of drop-down menus, option boxes or radio-buttons to create data collection formats you need. Design the prompts and pre-determine each of the user-steps employed in your data collection process.

 

If you need a fast, low cost and highly efficient route to managing field based auditing or activity reporting which:

  1. eradicates manual data capture
  2. introduces control and consistency
  3. simplifies administration
  4. enables time/date verification
  5. provides real time reporting

— then PDA Automated Data Collection from Serversys gives you a flexible and easy-to-deploy solution.
