For our Christmas appeal 2009, we supported a local charity: The Freetown Trust Fund. The fund was set up in 2004 by Sarah and Albert Charles in Walsall. The fund provides direct – and very personal support – to two families in Kenya. In 2009 they also donated a considerable amount to a local orphanage, the Blessed generation orphanage.
If you feel that this is something that you could help us support; please contact either Sarah or Al through the website: www.freetowntrustfund.org.uk
A lot of people ask us that question – and perhaps you don’t! If you are happy with the paper work, don’t need reports at the touch of a button and don’t mind your admin team being tied up just updating your in house systems – then a mobile workforce management system is not for you.
But if you think that you can turn round more work and would like to be more profitable, then you should take a look to see what it can do for you and your business. On our website we have tried to give you some ideas of how an efficient system can work. Yes it does cost money to invest in a system, but usually you will recoup the cost in the first year.
You may never have bought a system before – or you may be a very experienced member of a purchasing department. Selecting the right system for you takes time and can be daunting. You need to ask the right questions, evaluate devices and find a company that can work together with you. Mobile workforce management is very much about partnerships.
