One system, one source of truth.

Technical knowledge that used to live with individual colleagues is now available to the whole service team — on the job, with the source attached.

Before Manuel: Knowledge sat with individual colleagues.

One technical question on site could travel through four or five hands before it came back as an answer.

Where the team uses it

Real work, real equipment. The questions below are the kind the team asks in the field.

Example questions

In the field: Answer on the job, with the source

In the office: Prepared before anyone drives out

Approved results from this service team.

This note is filled in per story with the measurement method the customer approved — baseline, period and data source. Without an approved note, this block stays hidden.

How it works

The answer comes with its source

Technicians see not only the answer but also the manual and page it came from. That means nobody needs the answer confirmed.

Less consultation per job

Juniors find answers themselves

Questions that used to reach a senior are now solved in the app — with the same information the senior would have looked up.

Senior time stays for complex work

Company knowledge stays in the team

Internal procedures and previous solutions sit next to the manufacturer information, so knowledge does not disappear when someone is away.

Knowledge stays available

“Technicians now have a smart colleague in their pocket. One who is never ill, remembers everything and makes everyone better.”

Bart van Uuden, Managing director · Van der Sluis
