Rolling out amobile solution:tips from Hirotec
With 20 percent year on year growth, leading facilities management company Hirotec, required an IT system that could support its continual evolution.Key to this was a mobile solution that would allow field sta� access to key information, wherever they are.
Tip 1: Travelfrom A to B whileaccessing your ERP
Keep your technicians or field engineers connected with the information they need, where and when they need it.Using web-based technology, data is delivered in real-time to help manage day-to-day workload and work more e�iciently.
Pronto Xi has transformed the way Hirotec sta� work. They now use mobile devicesfor all maintenance requests, and time and material logging, replacing the previous paper-based system. Job details are also captured in real-time and sent to the team back at the o�ice for immediate invoicing.

Field engineers and on the road sales people aren’t the only ones who can benefit from a mobile solution. Decision making also needs to happen on the go. Pronto Xi users can now access Business Intelligence (BI) content on mobile devices, providing insights wherever they are.
Hirotec’s insights have helped highlight which contracts are under performing and which are performing well, allowing marketing expenditure to be more intelligently targeted.
Tip 3: Plan for the future - choose a flexible system
It’s important the solution is not only adapted, but adaptable. Most ERP providers deliver software that has to be integrated after you take receipt of the package. Chose a provider that enables you to customise interfaces and change processes to suit business purposes as they evolve.
For Hirotec, Pronto adapted a solution that fully incorporated with the internal timesheet, payroll, and job costing system.The integrated solution has improved productivity and provided key insights across the business. Hirotec is now looking to upgrade for further BI enhancements.
