Add measurements to forms – with just a photo

Spike|Spike

Spike

If you’re a field service vet, you’ve probably been tasked with taking measurements of signs, structures, or properties – often in awkward or hard-to-reach locations. This may be the most difficult data you have to collect during the day. Relying on ladders, tape measures, and clipboards doesn’t just stall productivity; it invites the risk of injury on the job.

When paired with Spike by ikeGPS, a smart laser measurement tool, ProntoForms allows you to capture an object’s measurements in real time – including height, width, area, length, and cutout area – just by taking a photo and selecting an area. Measurements are stamped directly onto photos, which are automatically integrated into the mobile form, allowing field workers to quickly complete and submit comprehensive estimates, work orders, and any other business process that involves collecting measurements on the job site.

Spike

The Spike device easily attaches to iOS devices and pairs via Bluetooth.

You can collect as many measurements as you need to complete the form as well as any other necessary information, such as total costs and customer signatures. You can then submit completed PDFs to customers and your back-office system with the touch of a button, allowing you to move on to the next job.

Let’s take a look at just one example of how the integration consolidates the mobile user experience. A field technician captures measurements for a proposed sign using Spike. The photo, with measurements stamped on top, is included in an estimate with other relevant information. The form is then sent to both the customer for approval and to a back-office accounting database. The customer gives the green light, and the estimate is quickly converted into a work order and dispatched to a field tech, who can begin the construction phase of the project.

The integration provides a seamless end-to-end workflow. Estimate and work order information can easily be tracked and stored in the cloud or your enterprise system, allowing you to analyze team performance and data trends.

Field service organizations, from construction to real estate, can take quicker measurements by leveraging smart laser measurement technology. But your office and customers still need to receive completed forms – with photos, measurements, and other data – in a timely fashion. ProntoForms continues to integrate with tools and services from other leading mobile partners to help streamline business processes and effortlessly connect remote field teams to home base.
