To digitize Work Order (WO) management, Field Service tools like **Jestor, Auvo, ServiceTitan, and Simpro** are the most recommended — they replace the paper clipboard with mobile apps that allow GPS check-in, signature collection, and real-time service photos.

### **The cost of paper Work Orders**

If your technician fills out a paper form at the customer's site and only delivers it to the office at the end of the week, your company is working in the past. Common problems:

- **Data Loss:** Paper tears, gets wet, or handwriting is illegible.
- **Slow Billing:** You only bill the customer days after the service is done.
- **Fraud:** There is no way to prove the technician was there at the scheduled time.

### **How Digital Field Service works**

1. **Scheduling:** The office sees all technicians' schedules on a map and drags the WO to the nearest one.
2. **Execution:** The technician receives a mobile notification with the address (Waze/Maps) and a checklist of tasks.
3. **Evidence:** The technician takes "Before and After" photos and collects the customer's signature on the screen.
4. **Closing:** The WO is closed, and the invoice is triggered automatically.

### **Jestor in field operations**

**Jestor** allows you to create a custom field app for your technical team.

**Differentiators:**

- **Native App:** Works on the technician's phone with a simple interface (large buttons, little typing).
- **QR Code:** The technician can scan the equipment's QR Code to view previous maintenance history.
- **Geolocation:** The system records the exact GPS coordinate where the WO was started and finished.
