ProntoForms Transforms VFC Facility Protection Operations

Installation and Maintenance workers save one hour per day with automated mobile workflows

OTTAWA, ON--(Marketwired - March 13, 2017) - ProntoForms Corporation (TSX VENTURE: PFM), a leading provider of mobile data collection and analytics platforms for enterprises and small to medium sized businesses, has released a customer video success story highlighting how VFC, a Salt Lake City-based facility protection company, has leveraged ProntoForms to significantly raise productivity -- and save more than $340,000 per year in their operations.

VFC field teams install lightning protection solutions for facilities across North America, and the company is using ProntoForms to transform a number of its business processes. The Daily Work Journals form captures information about the work being done, GPS locations, photos from the job site and more. Prior to ProntoForms, this process was managed with paper forms, and took field techs at least 30 minutes per day to complete. Now, the whole process takes a few minutes, saving VFC $1,250 every day in man-hours alone. Adopting ProntoForms has also streamlined time-consuming payroll and invoicing processes, saving an additional $40,000 per year which VFC has redirected to other areas of the company.

"Conservatively, ProntoForms has saved our teams half an hour per day, per team. This translates into $25,000 per month in direct savings," said Travis Vought, VP of Operations at VFC. "We're operating in near real time and it's had a huge impact on all our operations."

Some of those savings come from integrating the mobile solution with the company's CRM system. When field workers on location enter a jobsite ID in the form, the app automatically fills out addresses, contact names, phone numbers, and any other necessary information, saving valuable time in the field and minimizing typos and other data entry errors. When forms are submitted at the end of the day, the data is automatically routed into VFC's back office system, eliminating the need to re-enter data in the office.

"We are very pleased with the results VFC has realized through ProntoForms, and see this as further proof that our solution is industry agnostic and can benefit any organization that relies on paper forms," said Alvaro Pombo, CEO of ProntoForms. "It's inspiring to see how VFC has transformed their operations with mobility."
