The starting point
Context and challenges
In this scenario, schedules are shared by email and assignment information is scattered across conversations. Field staff need to call the office to confirm an address, find a document or report a change.
The need: access an up-to-date assignment, its context and documents on a phone, then share progress with the coordination team.
Give field staff the information they need before an assignment and let the office track progress.
Our contribution

The application organises work around assignments. A list shows upcoming visits; each record gathers useful information and follow-up actions.
