Infosys Field Mobility System (IFMS)
Field operations are usually very complex in nature. They require certain hygiene factors encompassing data and process management to be considered. Inefficient management of field operations pose several challenges:
- Non-standard processes and operating procedures across various service lines and locations reduce operational efficiencies
- Sub-optimal utilization of materials and personnel due to poor planning and allocations adversely affect profitability
- Inefficient management of data and information between field and office lead to time consuming and expensive reconciliation at multiple stages of information flow
- Key data and information remains inaccessible to people at crucial times
Infosys provides its customers with the ‘right fit’ solution that is delivered with the promise of improved operational efficiencies and enhanced process rigor.
