APS Streamlines Power Station
Safety Checks using iPhone Apps
The Challenge
Arizona Public Service Company has been powering Arizona’s economic
growth since 1886. Healthy, vital communities are an essential part of its
vision to create a sustainable energy future for Arizona.
After heavily investing in mobile devices throughout the enterprise, APS
came to the realization that it was time to make these devices more useful
by attempting to remove or greatly reduce paper workflows.
Safety checks were a natural place to start. Paper workflows in this area
are cumbersome and expensive to administer, so a team of APS engineers
began development of an application designed to replace a safety check
workflow, providing their users with electronic access to safety manuals.
After the initial internally-developed project, APS decided that it was time
to identify a partner to continue the evolution of a grass roots development
effort – InnoviMobile.
The Solution
The core product helps safety engineers report problems to safety
inspection teams in the most expedient way possible. An audit trail
is created to improve efficiency and provide documentation to show
completion of internal system checks.
APS partnered with InnoviMobile to improve the application, as well as
to integrate it with their enterprise mobility management solution for
secure data transfer and application management. InnoviMobile made
recommendations on how to make the solution more effective and on
how to implement it on multiple mobile platforms.
