Vodafone Business Services (VBS), the enterprise arm of Vodafone India, has introduced the Mobile Workforce Essentials, a cloud-based business application suite that empowers enterprises to get the most out of their field force.
Mobile Workforce Essentials is a brand new addition to Vodafone’s robust CloudStore portfolio that includes Collaboration Productivity and CRM among other cloud-based offerings.
With workplace dynamics changing, organizations are witnessing a substantial increase in their mobile workforce. Almost every enterprise today relies more than ever on its field force. Mobile Workforce Essentials helps enterprises manage their mobile workforce better to increase productivity, gain efficiency, improve accountability and reduce costs. Employees can remotely manage their attendance from their mobile app as well as receive and despatch work orders while on the field.
Employers, on the other hand, can monitor workforce routes through the GPS Tracking feature. The flexible platform also allows for replacement of manual, paper-based forms with 200+ pre-built industry specific forms and added smart features like Photo Capture, Digital Signature, Calculations and Emails for digital receipts.
One of the early customers of Mobile Workforce Essentials is a major state’s Election Commission, which deployed the solution during a recently concluded state assembly elections. Vodafone has partnered with ActSoft, a leading field-force management application vendor, to launch Mobile Workforce Essentials in the Indian Market.
