Geomanagement is here to stay. The technological maturity in which we live enables connectivity and a productive mobility scheme that frees work from fixed and pre-established spaces, and requires new, more dynamic processes that communicate and integrate.

Traditional management, tied to paper and redundant administrative processes that are neither systematized nor centralized, slows down and slows down the flow of work and information that geomanagement dynamizes. Geomanagement empowers each actor in the operational process and strengthens their interrelationship. 

What are these improvements and how does it achieve them? Thanks to digital geomanagement tools such as the ones we design at GoDoWorks to boost the productivity of companies, field operators, their supervisors, suppliers, end customers and management obtain more information, better processes and greater capacity for action.

1. Geomanagement facilitates the work of the field operator.

Whether by means of the facilities provided by a digital form to record the steps taken at the workplace, or thanks to the possibility of taking a photograph and uploading it to the digital tool to attest to the management achieved, the field operator obtains working days with fewer administrative complications and greater productivity. 

Geomanagement tools like those in GoDoWorks also allow you to better navigate routes to reduce time spent in the field (and save you from having to make decisions about which route to take).

2. Geomanagement facilitates the task of coordination and supervision.

Even companies with strong ERP capabilities still use Whatsapp to contact their field operators or customers. Using instant messaging platforms that do not centralize operations and that add contact channels often generates disorganization and dispersion in the workflow.

The key to geomanagement is to centralize and systematize processes so as not to add additional platforms for communication, contact and supervision, but rather so that all processes take place in the same context. This unification generates efficiency: once automatic forms and channels of contact have been established, thanks to geolocation and the real-time data obtained, human labor can concentrate on things other than how to record field information or how to establish contact.

3. Geomanagement integrates two key players into this centralized workflow: the supplier and the end customer.

If traditional management considers that billing processes take weeks as normal or to be expected, geo-management allows billing processes to be drastically shortened by integrating them. In other words, it goes from a cycle of weeks to immediate invoicing. 

By integrating the supplier, geo-management also provides traceability in the supply chain. This guarantees the correct functioning of operations and adds security in the dispatch process, in the use, control and inventory of inputs. 

The other actor who finds an integrated place thanks to geo-management and obtains information that will be of great interest to him is the end customer. For companies wishing to improve their CRM(customer relationship management), this is a point to be taken into account. Thus, the customer obtains, digitally, information about requested transactions, their processing, history of transactions, and the possibility of providing feedback . Therefore, geo-management brings proximity, integrates and generates communication channels with the end customer. 

4. Geomanagement provides management with real-time insight and clarity on productivity and performance, as well as predictions on future service demand.

How to make business decisions with partial or sometimes outdated information? Geomanagement stands out and differentiates itself from traditional possibilities thanks to its ability to obtain information and systematically translate this information into business insights . The centralization achieved records all relevant aspects of operational performance. This makes it easier to visualize aspects to be strengthened and to detect and solve problems immediately. Also, the artificial intelligence of the digital tool makes it possible to understand patterns in service demand and generate valuable predictions of future behavior.

At GoDoWorks, we understand the challenges of traditional management. Our mission is to equip companies with solutions that not only generate efficiency and productivity, but improve all aspects of management and take us into the future. Our knowledge and experience in geo-management allows us today to advise on its transformative possibilities.
