Assign, Monitor and Track tasks remotely!

    What’s the challenge?

    It’s difficult to stay on top of task scheduling and tracking tasks and workers when you don’t find out about missed tasks on time, and communicating with ranchers is difficult once they’re in the fields. This leads to operational inefficiencies.

    What’s currently being done?

    Organizations are still using paper-based forms and checklists across all operations. From assigning tasks to scheduling them and finally reviewing them, the entire process is manually done and creates operational inefficiencies.

    What’s the need?

    To be able to assign, allocate, schedule, track, and review tasks in real-time from wherever you are.

    What’s the role of digital transformation?

    To automate task management by digitizing forms and workflows and ensuring that they are accessible according to user roles from all smart devices at all times.

    What’s currently being done?

    Farms and feedlots are getting work done manually and are entirely dependent on human resources to assign tasks on paper, perform physical checks and reviews, and resolve issues in person. This increases the chances of human error and reduces the likelihood of following proper SOPs. 

    What’s the need?

    To be able to reduce human effort and get work done faster with greater accuracy and in a more efficient manner.

    What’s the role of digital transformation?

    To digitize workflows and the entire management process with the help of digital forms, and to enable quick deployment of changes with minimum effort and time.
