Los Gatos, CA (January 31, 2012) – MobileFrame, LLC Configurable Mobile Application^TM Enterprise Software Solutions, provider of the only cross-device mobile application development platform that requires no custom coding to develop custom mobile apps, announces that Great Western Steel, an international steel salvage and recycling company, has chosen MobileFrame software to allow workers to track the amount of steel loaded onto each truck electronically instead of on pen and paper.

Prior to MobileFrame, Great Western Steel was using clipboard and paper to record their inventory, scrap metal amounts and which truck was hauling which load. This paper-based process was inefficient and prone to human error. The company was using many different paper forms to collect different types of information about their assets. With MobileFrame’s single solution, all paper is eliminated and data is collected electronically. Once the data is collected it is stored in a central database, which allows management to have instant access to the data and make real-time decisions on how to run the company. Assets are then better managed and employees are much more productive.

Great Western Steel can now electronically track the location of their trucks, the weight of the scrap metal picked up, and the required job site information.  Since management has real-time information of the data, their inventory tracking and billing processes have been greatly improved. Since Great Western Steel is hired to haul large amounts of steel at a time, MobileFrame makes it much easier to keep timely and accurate records.

In today’s mobile world, deploying an enterprise mobility solution can mean the difference between being an unknown versus being the best in class in your industry. A true bi-directional mobile application creates a more efficient work force, reduces errors and increases customer satisfaction. MobileFrame’s software allows Great Western Steel to integrate with their backend system for a near seamless deployment that can literally deploy overnight.

“With other solutions, extra money and time are often spent on the development of mobile applications needlessly. MobileFrame’s Smart Architecture™ and intuitive setup eliminates costly and time consuming, custom coding. Our mobile applications streamline Great Western Steel’s asset management and inventory tracking, allowing cost-effective tracking of assets and compiling of data without writing a single line of code.”

About Great Western Steel

The business of Great Western Steel is professional demolition management. They have developed an efficient, organized strategy for salvage operations which is compliant with industry standards and regulatory issues, and solves the problems of clients who need to recycle facilities and assets which are obsolete, non-performing or surplus in the modern marketplace. GWS fills a unique, much needed position in the world of demolition providers and salvage operations. The market is saturated with “scrappers” – small shops who have some equipment and experience in taking down steel structures and preparing scrap for mills, but who lack sophisticated business skills. GWS overlays the “in the trenches” work with best business practices and project management. As a demolition manager, GWS brings a professional approach to the business of day-to-day salvage operations. They remove this burden from their clients, and serve as the problem solver and coordinator between the field, the buyers and the brokers. To learn more, visit: www.greatwesternsteel.com
