Completion checklist
Technology that supports the operation.
The context changes what good software looks like.
- Job addresses, instructions and photos are buried in group chat.
- The office cannot distinguish a scheduled visit from completed work.
- A field exception waits for approval without a named office owner.
What changes
- Current instructions available to field staff
- Completion photos attached to the job
- Blocked visits reach a named office owner
The practical details.
What’s included, what it connects to and how it works.
A workflow for this environment.
- Assign the job and visit details
- Open instructions on a phone
- Capture evidence or an exception
- Office reviews and updates the customer
An example in practice
For an installation or maintenance team, a proposed job view could put the address, instructions and required photos in one place. A blocked visit would return to an office queue with its evidence, while completed work would follow the agreed review step.
How far can we take it?
A starting point
A mobile web job list, job instructions, evidence capture and office review queue for one field workflow.
Additional work to consider
Offline operation, route optimisation, device hardware, multi-site dispatch and inventory allocation need additional design and testing.
What can it connect to?
- Mobile job forms
- Staff schedules and assignments
- Photo and document storage
- Customer records and notifications
We’ll check what your existing tools let us access before including a connection in the plan.
Will it work without a mobile connection?
Offline use is additional scope. If sites have poor connectivity, define what must be saved locally and how uploads and conflicting changes recover.
Does a submitted photo mark the job complete?
Only if that is the agreed rule. Submission and approval can be separate states so the office checks evidence before sending a completion update.
Start with the problem.
No brief or technical diagnosis required.
