Actuate Mobile Solution

Meeting the Demands of a Growing Mobile Workforce

Meeting the Demands of a Growing Mobile Workforce

Delivering critical business information to a workforce is nothing new in today’s business environment. What was once considered an accomplishment—having the right report with up-to-date information visible on an office computer—is no longer enough. Today’s challenge is to deliver information to mobile workers, people who spend significant time away from the office such as sales and services people, insurance agents and claims processors, and territory managers with responsibility for multi-branch organizations.
This growing mobile workforce needs access to enterprise information, but needs to have it delivered on a handheld device, making it available wherever decisions are made: in the local retail store or bank branch, on the assembly line or on the road. To solve this problem, Actuate has created a new Mobile Solution, a rich Internet application designed to meet the needs of organizations within financial services, the Global 9000, and any company that must meet the information needs of a mobile workforce.
