MoriahCom Releases JobSite

MoriahCom, an Intuit Developer Network Member, has released JobSite, part of the Wireless Data System Suite of products.

WDS JobSite is a handheld PDA module linked to Intuit Master Builder.

This module allows for data capture of employee time, equipment and subcontractor information while in the field and can be synchronized to the Master Builder database via dial-up, wireless or the PDA cradle, allowing project managers to schedule jobs in a timely fashion, reduce employee down time in the field and eliminate duplicate data entry.

“We are very excited to offer the first PDA solution for Master Builder with a synchronization server designed to link to Intuit’s products,” said Chris Guardado, owner of MoriahCom. “Every kilobyte sent wirelessly costs our customers money and employee time. We have optimized our server to check for changes in Master Builder and only send the necessary data tot he PDA. With a sync time starting at nine seconds, this significantly lowers our customers’ overall cost.”

With WDS JobSite, job superintendents can enter employee time, equipment and subcontractor information on-site. By giving your team access to real-time information, you can expect to:

Reduce the costs of operations
With accurate and immediate data from the field, processing of payroll time is reduced and duplicate data entry is eliminated -- meaning less overhead expenses and fewer labor hours needed to get the job done.

Increase worker productivity
Once the crew arrives on site, they are limited to the information they left with. With WDS JobSite, your team can review the vital project information needed to complete the job while on-site. Superintendents will have less paperwork and can focus on their primary job.

Streamline project management
Companies can use WDS JobSite to capture the data they need from the field. With this real time data, you can manage your projects, schedules and potential over-runs in a timely fashion.

Maximize existing IT investments
WDS JobSite is integrated with your current Master Builder data. This will lower the learning curve and retain your current investment. WDS JobSite is also compatible with many handheld devices your company or employees may already own.

“We are thrilled that MoriahCom is participating in the Intuit Developer Network and is enabling data sharing between WDS JobSite and Intuit Master Builder,” said Carol Novello, vice president and general manager of Intuit Construction Business Solutions. “Our relationship with MoriahCom will help us better meet the specific industry needs of our construction customers.”
