Archibus Mobile Apps: Overview

With the wealth of information that your Archibus system holds, a facility may wish to make the information available to users in the field or off site who do not have access to the network or Archibus Web Central. To meet this need, Archibus provides a set of mobile apps so that personnel can access data such as building lists, floor plans, room lists, asset and equipment lists, and maintenance tasks directly from their tablets, smart phones, and mobile devices.

With Archibus mobile apps, you can provide accurate and timely data to those who need it most, streamline your information flow, eliminate paperwork, and keep your teams productive and on-the-job.

Adding the mobile apps to your Archibus deployment has many advantages. For example, your site can use mobile to:

• Meet the needs of users who are on-the-go, without compromising security and control.
• Improve your space and facility discussions by having space plans at your fingertips.
• Improve the accuracy of and speed the collection of data in the field.
• Improve the accuracy of field reports and increase productivity by reducing the time spent on paperwork and note-taking.

Note: If you intend to use the mobile app features that access floor plan drawings, you may wish to use a tablet instead of a smart phone. Because floor plan drawings occupy significant screen space, they are best viewed on a tablet.
