Plantforce is London’s leading independent plant company, supplying award-winning contemporary interior and exterior plants and flowers. They used Pro Pal to put ISO 14001 into practice — real environmental and cost savings, not just a certificate.
The challenge
They knew a mobile workforce system could deliver the improvements they wanted. “The systems were so complicated; we never felt we had the time to implement them and everything we looked at was very expensive,” says Office Manager Jemma Jeeves.
The solution
Pro Pal is the total solution of software, devices and maintenance, including the mobile data contract. Field Force set the system up and trained against real-world usage, so Plantforce could start using it without a large investment of time or money.
The result
The real environmental and financial benefit is fuel saved by tighter routes. “It’s easier to group a day. We see the routes drawn on the map, which makes it really clear to see the overlaps and make improvements.”
Less duplication and instant job data cut time spent on admin and billing. “We’re more relaxed when doing our quality checks. We can give more support to the sales team and work on projects to bring in new business.”
