With MOBILEsales, employees can now track potential customers and customers alike. They can manage bid lifecycles and have access to dashboards and scorecards. Meanwhile, with MOBILEjobsite is for contractors to see the status of trucks, place order requests.

The MOBILECommerce package ensures a seamless paperless operation, said Hoagland.

MOBILEcommerce allows customers submit orders and monitor deliveries from the jobsite. They can review accounts and reprint tickets. Meanwhile, the company can review customer orders and decrease call volumes to dispatch and the back office.

More modules are planned for the future and may include quality assurance and safety issues.
