Apple and IBM Launch 10 New MobileFirst Apps for Enterprise

Posted July 22, 2015 at 1:25am by iClarified
Apple and IBM have launched ten new MobileFirst apps for iOS that enable new ways to work across a range of industries.

The two companies formed a partnership back in 2014 that will see the creation of over 100 industry specific applications.

Here are the new apps:


Shift Track For Managers
Shift Track for iOS gives managers a smarter approach to staffing and scheduling. By replacing inefficient paper schedules with powerful analytics and intuitive dashboards, Shift Track makes it easy for managers to stay on top of staff schedules, time-off requests, shift exceptions, and employee hours. Push notifications make it easy to manage requests for vacation, or track sick leave and paid time off. Never before has an app empowered managers with this much visibility and control over staff schedules.

Shift Sync For Employees
Shift Sync for iPhone and Apple Watch gives employees more control of their schedules than ever before. Staff members can use Shift Sync’s easy, intuitive dashboard to view and interact with their schedules, accept or decline schedule changes, submit vacation requests — and even keep track of sick leave and paid time off. Push notifications let the team know who’s scheduled and who’s available. With Shift Sync, employees are empowered with a flexible, modern way to manage their work schedule — and that means less schedule surprises and better planning for the entire team.

Travel Plan For Business Travelers
The Travel Plan app was built to make trip planning a simple, intuitive, and integrated experience for business travelers. Powerful analytics scan Calendar events as potential trip suggestions, recognize frequent destinations, and automatically factor in trip parameters to provide personalized travel recommendations. And trip options are conveniently filtered by user preferences, travel history, and company policies. Travel Plan incorporates trip approval and immigration compliance, so travelers don’t have to worry about multiple processes. With Travel Plan, business travelers spend less time on planning and keep reservations in policy and on budget for the company.

Collaboration features let everyone share their travel status, or compare notes on hotels, car rental agencies, and other local services. And location- and time-based push notifications provide flight check-in reminders or alerts on flight delays. Travel Track is the social, intelligent, efficient approach to business travel.

Loan Advise For Mortgage Officers
Loan Advise for iOS helps mortgage officers provide personalized recommendations to clients more efficiently than ever. Now mortgage officers can collect information about their clients in real time, offer accurate product recommendations, and make it easier for borrowers to select and apply for mortgages. The built-in camera on iPad scans client information such as driver licenses and application forms to make it faster to gather information. Clients can also digitally sign paperwork from the app, so the application process can start on the spot. Loan Advise helps provide accurate, insightful recommendations for better customer service.

Loan Track makes it easy for mortgage officers to keep up with everything in their pipeline. They can view a summary of loans in process and tasks needed to get the loan application complete. And borrowers are always informed with instant updates on their application status via email, instant message, or text. Loan Track leverages Camera to intelligently capture applicant information, so underwriters receive client files sooner. With Loan Track, mortgage officers can keep on top of client applications and help the loan process move forward smoothly — and that means a better experience for clients.

One call does it all with the Expert Resolve app for iOS. Expert Resolve shows field service professionals relevant historical data and typical device issues so they can quickly diagnose problems. The app suggests solutions based on similar scenarios, and uses predictive analytics to point out potential issues — eliminating the need for another service call. The built-in camera makes it easy to capture information about the equipment for their records. And if live support is needed, FaceTime puts the experts on the scene. Expert Resolve helps field service professionals get the job done right the first time.

Asset Inspect For Field Technicians
The Asset Inspect app for iOS makes asset inspections and maintenance fast, safe, and efficient. Asset Inspect uses predictive analytics to provide field technicians with “most likely cause” scenarios so they know what to look for. Then the app puts manuals, specifications, and work history at their fingertips so they know what to do next. Field technicians can collaborate with other experts via FaceTime, leverage Camera to scan assets, and use the built-in microphone to record equipment sounds for operational analysis. And push notifications provide technicians with new job alerts in real time. Asset Inspect uses the power of information to keep field crews safer and more productive than ever.

Field Inspect For Government Inspectors
The Field Inspect app for iOS provides government inspectors with data at their fingertips, no matter where an inspection takes them. It’s easy to route findings directly to the appropriate government agency — saving mountains of paperwork and hours of data entry. iPad features like the built-in camera and microphone make documentation easier and more accurate. And powerful analytics provide relevant data on inspection history for better detection rates and recommended follow-ups. Field Inspect gives inspectors the data and tools they need to perform more efficient inspections.

Safe Site New For Forepersons
Safety is everyone’s priority with the Safe Site app for iOS. Features like the built-in camera and microphone on iPhone let forepersons document, pinpoint, and broadcast unsafe conditions instantly. Site managers can use Safe Site to respond promptly to risks, report near misses and incidents, and share alerts with nearby employees. The app also leverages iBeacon technology to alert forepersons when they’re within proximity of an identified hazard. And predictive analytics recommend actions and potential resolutions based on historical data and safety practices related to the incident. Safe Site keeps everyone updated on critical information using real-time information and analytics, so forepersons can be safer and more productive on the job.
