The use of paper forms in the workplace limits efficiency. These files can be messy and hard to keep track of, making mistakes more often. Additionally, they are limited to only one type of data - written notes. By going digital, workers can capture new forms of data like audio from interviews and pictures of the issue.
With paper forms, data must be manually analyzed and action towards the problem is delayed. With mobile apps, managers can look at the collected data in real time and use built in analytics features to run any necessary processes like putting in a new work order.

GBS Enterprises removed paper forms and increased the productivity of its field team by 80%.
Before, they used paper forms in many of their processes. Work orders were written down on paper. Data collected by field workers would have to be inputted into company systems manually by a second worker. The data that they did collect was limited to written notes, making defining issues like furniture damage difficult.
GBS Enterprises used Alpha TransForm to create mobile apps for dispatching field workers. These apps have replaced paper work orders, and have resulted in improved data collection accuracy and depth. Now, they can capture images and scan bar codes to initiate process claims. The apps are integrated with GBS Enterprises' dispatch system, so when work orders are sent to field technicians, they already contain pertinent contact address info, as well as information about the work to be performed.
Building Engineering Company built a mobile forms app that saved 15 hours/each per week for home energy inspectors.
The company's lead engineer and CEO, Darrol Harrison, said the company found itself stuck processing paper forms. Inspectors have to write down large amounts of data on paper and work in difficult conditions, sometimes in the attic during the summer, where the temperature could exceed 130 degrees. After that, the data had to be transferred to the internal system, requiring 100 hours for 50 homes. The main problem he faced was that there was no mobile app that could be used for energy assessment and work online and offline, allowing for time-saving measures like barcode scanning, image annotation, voice-to-text input, etc.
However, using Alpha Transform, he was able to custom build this app without coding. He included all of the features he had envisioned, ultimately saving multiple hours in work time.
