What is a Business Mobile Application?

A business application is specific to each company. It responds to a problem
observed within the organization. It is therefore B2E: Business To Employee
(internal use).

But why a mobile application when solutions already exist on the
web? Mobility means accessibility anytime, anywhere.

Practical, when our employees are itinerant (salespeople, delivery drivers,
inventory manager, maintenance / operational technicians, etc.)! But it’s not
all about business. Communities and public bodies can also take advantage
of this, in particular, to improve relations with citizens or optimize
administrative procedures.

Concretely, what is it for?

A business mobile application, a real tool, is used on a daily basis. It allows you
to manage your business more efficiently, and to achieve your goals faster (or
even exceed them). How? Or What?
At the level of data: They are harmonized (the data collected is centralized in
a back-office). In addition, their entry is instantaneous and
dematerialized. Yes, no more paper clutter!
In terms of communication:

● Contact between employees facilitated: thanks to an integrated company
directory for example.
● Improved internal communication: through news posted, etc.
● Accelerated information dissemination: With the sending of notifications, all
employees are informed at the same time.

This process optimization saves time and increases the productivity of
employees, whether they are in the field or in their office. This is how we get a
better ROI (return on investment).

In order to have an effective business application, several steps must be
taken. First, think about it upstream. Then prepare it. And then, it’s not over…

BEFORE: Ask yourself the right questions

Before even planning your business mobile application, you have to ask
yourself: What is the problem in my organization?

Is the encountered by a large panel of people?

How do we fix it for now?

Once this diagnosis has been made, look for:

● What equipment is best suited to those who will be using this application (tablet,
smartphone, or both)?

● How often will the app be used? For how long?

To answer all of these questions, consult your employees! After all, they will be
the first users. Also, make sure they are comfortable with mobile use.

DURING: Knowing what to put in

Depending on the issue, the features to add variety. Focus on those that are
essential for your business. Do your employees need a system of geolocation,
notifications, chat, take pictures…?

For example: if the business application will serve as a brochure for your
salespeople, augmented reality is an asset. Indeed, presenting its products to
its customers in the digital version is an innovative technique. This also allows
you to update your catalog more easily, and save money (no more paper
printing).

Finally, to be sure that the application is a success, have it tested by those for
whom it is intended.

APR È S: The update

In order to guarantee its sustainability, an application must be regularly
updated. To do this, take user feedback into account. These will enlighten you
on the relevant features to add, or the bugs to correct. Then, be sure to
communicate (by e-mail, memo) the changes made to the application to its
users.
