When technicians are on a task, all documents are available in the digital technician folder on a tablet. Updates are sent directly back to the office, where administrative work has become simpler and more precise.

Dansk Installations Teknik Nyhus handles tasks within plumbing and ventilation in standard houses and terraced houses. The company covers Funen, Jutland, and parts of Zealand. For the company’s technicians and administrative staff, there are many details to keep track of.

“The task of preparing materials for the physical technician folders every morning had become too cumbersome. At the same time, there could be days when the technicians carried around information in the folder that we needed at the office. We needed to digitize our workflows, which was why we contacted Simplitize.”

   – Dorte Mehl, Coordinator, Dansk Installations Teknik Nyhus

 

Easy for the technicians 

One of the crucial criteria for Dansk Installations Teknik Nyhus when they were looking for a solution was that it should be easy for the technicians.

“It’s not enough that it works on a PC for us in the office. It should be easy for everyone to work with. Simplitize introduced us to a case management system based on WorkPoint, which allowed the technicians to work in a Power App. It suited our company very well and convinced us,” says Dorte Mehl.

 

Virtual collaboration and ongoing development

The focus has been on getting the essentials in place and building from there. Except for a single kickoff meeting, the collaboration has been virtual.

“I thought, can it really be done, they are quite far from us, but it has just worked really well with Teams. We started with what we would at least need, and then we have continuously expanded with things from our wishlist. It works well for us that it’s an ongoing process and that we have an open line to Simplitize. There’s always a quick response when I reach out, and we’re ready for the next step,” Dorte Mehl describes the collaboration.

Challenge

Communication between the office and the technicians was limited by the physical technician folder. Information needed at the office could take several days to arrive, and updates on cases were difficult to access.

Solution

For Dansk Installations Teknik Nyhus, Simplitize has developed a digital technician folder based on a WorkPoint back-end and a Power App front-end, integrated with the company’s ERP. Through a tablet, the technician has easy access to work orders, instructions, and drawings

Result

Both in the office and out in the field, there is full real-time overview. Communication flows freely, and there is less waiting time. Additionally, technicians find it easier to handle extra tasks as they always have all the data at their fingertips

Improved communication between office and technicians

Today, the office knows in real-time everything happening on individual cases, strengthening collaboration with quick overviews.

“The communication between technicians and the office has greatly improved because we stay updated. It’s also much easier for technicians, even with extra tasks, as they can quickly access all necessary information electronically,” says Dorte Mehl.

 

Simple archiving and data retrieval

Double entries are a thing of the past, and an integration between WorkPoint and Dansk Installations Teknik Nyhus’ ERP solution means all projects are created with necessary master data directly from the ERP solution. Documents are stored correctly and easy to find.

“We can handle cases more easily. Drag-and-drop and a good folder structure make it simple and intuitive to archive and retrieve documents. With all the inputs we receive from technicians, we’ve also received great help from Simplitize to pull lists. It provides a really good overview, and we always know where we stand with tasks,” concludes Dorte Mehl.
