Fire Suppression App Overview
Realising the need to move away from handwritten service reports and embrace technological advances, FMA designed and developed a Fire Suppression app from the ground-up.
The Fire Suppression app allows technicians to complete a Level 1, Level 2, Level 4, Breakdown, Inspection or Maintenance report using a touch screen handheld device. Considering the challenge mine site environments pose, the app is fully usable offline with tasks stored in an internal database until such time as an internet connection is available and the service reports can be synced to the cloud.
Our simple web interface makes managing fire suppression tasks a breeze. The customisable hub screen allows for filterable analysis by technician, mine site or time period. When tasks first enter the system they awaiting manager approval. A service report and any attached photos can be analysed, approved and then downloaded or emailed in PDF format. A sophisticated user account module allows for a new technician to be added to the system in seconds.
The mobile web app was designed with Chrome for Android in mind. Technicians can log in to the app offline and complete services, complete with photographs, that are saved in Chrome’s internal memory – these tasks will be saved even if the user reboots their handheld device. When internet access is available, these tasks will be synced to permanent cloud storage.
