Benefits of Our Mobile
In today's competitive, global economy, organizations become successful leaders when they optimize their systems and business processes by taking their data mobile. Across industries - whether it's a technician tending to an asset in a manufacturing plant, a field service rep interfacing with your customer, or an inspector on an oil transmission pipeline - mobile solutions extend SAP® and other backend systems to the point of performance.
Put relevant SAP® ERP and CRM information in the hands of your workers when and where they need it most: at the point of performance. From the office to the field, mobile technology keeps everyone united under your enterprise system(s), regardless of location or connectivity.
Continual data access significantly improves worker productivity and empowers your employees to make better decisions and work smarter. Plus, by capturing data onsite and sending it back directly to your SAP system, they provide management with comprehensive, real-time views for optimized planning, reporting and scheduling. And with field data capture, your SAP system is fully utilized and stocked with the accurate, timely information that will keep your organization running at peak performance while maintaining low operational costs.

Increase Productivity by 15-45 Minutes Per Worker Every Shift
Mobile technology eliminates outdated paper-based operations and redundant data entry to support your organization's work efforts and boost overall productivity. Capturing data at the point of performance means not having to spend time rekeying it into SAP or other backend systems. That time is then spent actually working on assets or interfacing with your customers. On average, Syclo customers have seen gains of 15-45 minutes of additional work time per employee per shift. Imagine, what could that extra time do for your organization's productivity?
Syclo's SMART offers your remote employees all of the relevant information they need to do their job intelligently, effectively eliminating the hunt for information. It reduces travel times, foot traffic, radio chatter, standing by the printer and so on. Time previously spent searching for, communicating and inputting information is eliminated. Information is quickly captured as work is performed.
SMART Mobile Suite keeps your employees connected and engaged. Employees using mobile technology are gathering information quicker, responding to requests faster and ultimately accelerating the rate at which your data is gathered, transmitted and accessed.
Gain 360° Views for Optimized Planning, Scheduling and Reporting
Using mobile technology increases visibility into your operations for better planning, scheduling and reporting. Syclo's SMART Mobile Suite not only lets workers access data in your SAP® system, it also flows the data captured by them back into your system - either in real-time (if they're working under the umbrella of wireless connectivity) or at the end of the day when they transmit.
SMART ensures that no data is lost in translation, disregarded as unimportant or left sitting to be entered as with inefficient paper processes. It captures all data instantly, offering your SAP system full operational visibility.
Gaining a 360° view means that you can generate reports with up-to-date, accurate information. The availability of real-time information also optimizes scheduling. Mobile data lets you know how long the task will actually take the worker, what skills they'll need to complete the job, or even who is geographically closest to the work. SMART ensures you send the right employee to perform the job.
It also equips you to comply better with regulations imposed by government bodies such as OSHA, FAA and FDA. With SMART Mobile Suite you capture everything - every touch of an asset in a plant, every interaction with a customer in an electronic audit trail. With a time and date stamp on every transaction and exchange, you're assured that your records are concrete and can't be falsified or tampered with.
Remove Unnecessary Operational and Administrative Costs
Mobile solutions reduce costs by compressing the number of personnel and activities that are required to complete business processes. By going mobile, your employees spend more time actually working and less on waiting, traveling and communicating. They show up prepared with the right tools, materials and information - no down time, and little or no overtime. Syclo's SMART Mobile Suite translates to significant costs savings for your organization.
If your organization's status quo is paper processes, you're spending a large portion of your budget on paper, toner, filing cabinets, data entry clerks and so on. All of that is eliminated with SMART mobile data capture.
For example, one of our customers, a very large pharmaceutical company, estimated that their cost of processing one work order before mobile was $4.90. After implementing SMART Work Manager, they reported a cost of just $.84 per work order! SMART helped them slash administrative costs associated with previous paper work processes (such as manual work order assignments and data entry of collected work order information). They estimate their overall savings at 83%.
The SMART Mobile Suite also lets your organization manage its tools, materials and goods more effectively to cut costs. You can use SMART to track and monitor bin levels in your stockroom, for example, and implement a "just-in-time" inventory strategy. No need to maintain expensive stock - with SMART, you'll significantly reduce spoilage and shrinkage.
There are countless ways SMART Mobile Suite reduces your organization's bottom line.
Collect and Track Over 85% of Work and Transactions with Mobile
Your organization spends a lot of time and money installing, configuring and managing your SAP® ERP and CRM - so why wouldn't you leverage it to its greatest potential? No doubt you choose one underlying enterprise technology to unify your organization under a central system with streamlined business processes. But your SAP system is only as good as the data your organization captures and houses inside it.
Data is the Achilles heel of many organizations that install SAP® and other backend systems and then expect them to revolutionize their businesses. Data is the true key to harmonizing your organization under an enterprise system like SAP and advancing your business processes. But data is only timely and accurate when it is captured daily at the point of job performance.
To optimize your SAP system, you have to be able to capture and access all of the data from your day-to-day business processes. Syclo's SMART Mobile Suite allows you to do this.
Coupling SMART with your SAP ERP and CRM provides a catalyst for success. It extends your business processes and the information needed to get the job done to your remote employees. As a result, they record more, better-quality data, giving your organization's SAP system the data it needs to truly umbrella your entire organization and optimize its business processes. In short, SMART mobile technology allows you to utilize your SAP system at its fullest potential.
