Snider Tire Inc. Selects MobileFrame Software To Automate Their Dispatch and Field Service System


Snider Tire Has Selected MobileFrame's Configurable Mobile ApplicationTM Software As Its Standard Mobility Platform

San Jose, Calif. -- January 10, 2007 - MobileFrame, LLC (www.mobileframe.com), the leading provider of Configurable Mobile ApplicationsTM, announces that Snider Tire Inc. has selected MobileFrame's Business SuiteTM software platform to automate all of Snider's Dispatch and Field Service operations. Snider's business process starts when their Dispatchers create service tickets which are automatically synchronized to a technician's PDA in the field. The technician completes the service ticket and sends it back to the Dispatcher for review. MobileFrame's software platform provides a configurable Windows based application that allows the Dispatcher to edit the service tickets returned by the field technician as required. After the Dispatcher's review and approval, the service tickets are then synchronized to Snider Tire's backend AS400 system. MobileFrame's ability to send alert messages and emergency service requests to field technicians provides Snider Tire a real-time interactive schedule, dispatch and field service system.

Snider Tire considered developing their Field Service and Dispatch system internally using commercially available SDK's, but quickly realized that MobileFrame's software platform provided a complete system that would enable them to deploy and manage the entire mobile project out-of-the-box. In addition to Dispatch and Field Service, MobileFrame's flexible software platform allows Snider Tire to automate several additional planned mobile application projects including:

  • Warehouse Operations
  • Timekeeping
  • Vehicle Inspections

MobileFrame's award-winning Configurable Mobile ApplicationsTM software platform is an entirely self-contained mobility solution that provides full functionality out-of-the-box, with no custom programming, no third party mobile gateways, synchronization engines or SDK's required. MobileFrame's software allows users to capture photographs, voice notes, documents, templates, logos, sketches, digital signatures, bar code scans, magnetic strip read outs, RFID tags and advanced algorithmic functions, and attach them directly into their mobile applications. Applications are stored in a library so business users can quickly make changes whenever operational requirements change, enabling on-the-spot development and deployment of a wide variety of mobile applications. MobileFrame software affords Snider Tire unparalleled flexibility to create mobile applications of any degree of complexity, incorporating any mix of business processes, and deploy those applications to their mobile personnel on-the-fly.

The MobileFrame solution allowed Snider Tire to automate all of their dispatch and field service operations on a single mobility platform. With integrated intelligent networking, prioritized synchronization, remote device configuration and management, and remote software updates all built-in to one software platform, MobileFrame significantly streamlines mobile application development, deployment, and administration. Data collected in the field is stored on a handheld device and automatically synchronized to the central office when wireless or wired access becomes available. The MobileFrame software operates on any .NET enabled handheld device, including Pocket PC PDA's, Tablet PC's or Laptops.

"MobileFrame is very pleased that Snider Tire has chosen our revolutionary platform,"said Lonny Oswalt, MobileFrame's CEO and President. "Snider Tire is automating all their schedule, dispatch and field service operations totally unique to their needs without having to spend any resources on time consuming and costly software development."
