Seeing your Work and Job Status Visually
The beauty with CRM-Map, is that all of these problems are solved and solved in a simple intuitive way. In fact, you create the screens and forms your subcontracts will see and get. It is that simple. As most people can now use Google Maps, this is all they need to know. Put their location finder on, and all your data shows, with your icons, and your colours. e.g. Orange – this job is coming up. Green – this job is ready to go. Blue – this job has been done. They only see what they need to see. Yet you see everything. They don’t even have to think about remembering to send you the JSA – as the CRM Map has already sent it to you and electronically filed it where you want it filed.
Here is a great bonus. You in your office even know exactly which job all your subbies are on. If you have an emergency, you can see who is closest by map and driving time to get to a job. Plus you can see where all your assets are, if something breaks down, just by looking at your Google maps. CRM Map is really the best aid you have ever had in the building industry.
