Field Service.

The unit is at the job site, and the expert is not. This is reading for teams who keep the visit’s messages, photos, and closeout in one Thread.

Home

The visit’s messages, photos, and closeout stay in the Help Thread.

  1. Chat

    What they see, what they tried, and the next question stay in the Help Thread — not a group text that dies when the visit ends.

  2. Photos

    The fault, the serial, the step that failed — captured at the job site and kept with this Thread.

  3. Manuals

    Pull the approved manual or a drawing into the Thread so the person at the job site is not hunting a PDF in the truck.

  4. Guide

    An expert joins a live session when the person in front of the unit needs eyes on the part. Annotations when a finger is faster than a paragraph.

  5. Close

    When the work ends, the closed Thread is the record: who was in it, what they captured, and how it ended.

Ecolab

A technician is already in front of the unit, or the truck has not rolled. Photos go in the Thread. An expert joins a live session when the person at the job site needs eyes on the part.
