Handheld device routes information to office

Singletouch, a developer of data-capture platform for electrical contractors in the construction industry, released its Singletouch Mobile solution – the deployment of its software platform on rugged handheld devices, enabling instant relay of accurate field data back to the office to expedite payroll, accounting and project reporting.

Singletouch Mobile is an extension of the company’s existing Singletouch Office and Singletouch Jobsite. The software tools are integrated, sharing data and allowing only the authorized transaction maker, the person using the system, to log transactions and input relevant data to a particular task. Information is easily integrated with third-party payroll, accounting and reporting software, while also feeding into customized reports.

The platform was created by an electrical contractor who is familiar with the real-world requirements of those in the industry and the business issues they face. The handheld devices can withstand the rigors of the job site and provide instantaneous, accurate reporting of data back to the office.

“In my time building an electrical contracting firm, I was constantly frustrated by the lack of effective communication of data between the field and the office,” Marty Hilsenteger, CEO, Singletouch, says. “In developing our solution, we worked from the field into the office in a way that facilitates the one-time inputting of data, using the keypad or the handheld scanner, eliminating paperwork and ensuring that reporting and invoicing can be completed quickly and accurately.”
