Workforce Empowerment
Empowerment of the non-knowledge worker
Advancements in mobile technology have reinvented the knowledge-based workforce and unleashed it from the keyboard. However, many industries such as field services and construction have remained very traditional, often with employees still wielding clipboards rather than electronic devices. Software has finally reached a point where mobile workflow customization for these highly specialized fields is possible.
For example, construction workers can access and edit an architectural schematic and then push the altered version out to every mobile device on the yard, instead of printing physical copies. Allowing for all workers to have access to their work information wherever shows just how the workforce is expected to change in the next year.
