Making IOT Work for the Customer
Service Delivery Management
As a Service Provider your job is to support a wide portfolio of clients in multiple locations with both planned and reactive specialist services.
Resourcing, planning, scheduling, requesting access to site, performing inductions. All these activities must happen before the work has even started.
Ensuring that work completed is documented correctly, all costs captured and an invoice with service report is sent to the client for approval completes the process.
With Azolla you can manage your asset portfolio across multiple locations in one system. Imagine however that instead of waiting for the client to ring you with a problem that you arrive on site to fix it before it happens. This is what sensor technology and the Azolla AI can help you with.

Why we are different
Azolla allows you to implement a Facilities Management system capable of planning your day-to-day operations in real-time. By incorporating your planned maintenance programme with the real-time monitoring capabilities from IOT sensor technology, Azolla allows you to monitor multiple locations in real-time 24/7, alerting key staff as and when required.
The Azolla scheduling module allows you to plan visits to the site, automatically check insurance details, organise permit to work and attach service reports. Reactive work can be routed automatically to nominated staff or contractors based on the type of work or the location of the problem. By integrating sensor technology or data from your Building Management System (BMS), this work can be generated and stored in one place.
Using the Azolla App, staff can access their work on the move, make recommendations and file their paperwork electronically. Where external contractors are used, work can be sent and responded to via email and then Azolla can be updated based on the email response.
