can still rely on an individual filling in their work on a piece of paper , submitting that paper and then having someone else enter it into a computer ,” Batkin said . “ AMT Mobile lets you do all of that simultaneously on a mobile device .”
AMT Mobile is designed to improve , automate and digitise inspection and checklist processes in the asset management space . Through this digitisation , it replaces paper-based systems and manual post-activity data entry .

RPM concluded on the new app : “ The solution provides notifications where a potential issue or observation about an asset has been identified . Notifications can include items such as breakdown , priority , what may have caused the issue or what damage has already occurred . With the mobile in the hand of the user , they can scan QR codes to reach equipment , access the device camera to add photographs as supporting evidence or add voice to text , streamlining the rectification processes that follow .”

Fernandez called the app development the “ obvious next step ” in ABB ’ s GMD evolution , providing a tool that comes with additional value for customers .
