Case 1. Custom apps for business: process automation

Let´s imagine a company that assembles units, such as work shelters or temporary offices. These installations during the assembly process require the supervision of a technician who has to move from the assembly area to the office, where the computer is, to document the progress of the assembly, adjust timing, order new parts based on the recent needs etc.

In this case the custom apps for business allow the operator to automate the entire assembly process, reducing downtime and therefore increasing productivity.

A bespoke app for this hotel chain would allow a better organization, also adapted to the special characteristics of the business. We could see which rooms are prepared to accommodate a client, edit and report the damage that may be suffered, to assign employees for maintenance, to supervise and to approve the work done in the rooms.
