The system will help small businesses monitor field technicians and boost productivity.

 

Alltel Wireless (NYSE:AT) has teamed up with on-demand service management software provider Corrigo to deliver an application that helps small and midsize business owners monitor field technicians and increase productivity. Corrigo's WorkTrack Service Management system enables service-based businesses to wirelessly dispatch work orders to employees in the field, and remotely manage the orders using select mobile devices on the Alltel network.

WorkTrack Service Management monitors field technician time and provides efficient status reports with real-time reporting, resulting in reduced payroll and administrative costs.
