Technical procedure and parts lookup

A technician asks about a machine by voice or text and receives the relevant service-manual page, part or procedure while working at the equipment.

Equipment rental

Where the work begins

A large equipment-rental business uses one production deployment for technicians, branch staff, sales reps and storefront customers. For technicians, the documented workflow replaces the search for the right manual page using the machine's unit information.

The problem

Rental economics depend on returning equipment to hire quickly. Systems built to record machines, their locations and condition do not necessarily make it easy for a technician in the yard to find the service information needed now.
