Pen and paper is a proven technology that has been around for thousands of years and despite its age it is an Information Technology, which makes it one of the most widely, used IT solutions in the world.
Digital Pen & Paper (DP&P) takes an age-old convenient way of information gathering and enhances it using a wireless ink pen together with ordinary paper that has a digital pattern embedded into it. Handwriting is translated into pen strokes, which are transmitted via a mobile phone using GPRS. Using this process, graphical images of business forms are delivered to back office systems in less than a minute. At the same time the Pen strokes are converted into data files and presented for automatic updating to our database systems.
DP&P solution is very easy to use, has little or no impact on existing work practices and significantly improves productivity and the cost associated with the processing of data.
For over 25 years Jackson Lift Group have used an extensive and powerful Database system, to report, record, monitor and manage our complete business. This is now enhanced by the capturing of information produced by our field staff and the automatic updating of our systems.
The DP&P solution is used to retrieve information from field staff quickly and cost effectively using a process technology requiring minimal training for all staff.
We can now assure our customers that they have the current status of work at the press of a button with signed attendance forms as confirmation. Engineers no longer have to return to the office to deliver completed paperwork, hence a more effective use of their time.
As the technology progresses – then so will its use.
