Corporate Real EstateMobile devices have become increasingly popular in corporate America. The reason why management likes mobile devices is that they increase economy, efficiency and overall productivity while allowing employees to provide better customer service. And naturally, employees like mobile devices because they increase flexibility and convenience. Here are some advantages to having access to your corporate real estate portfolio via your mobile device.

 

Economy

Having access to the information whenever you need it can save time and money. Technology that allows an employee to complete a task faster and easier is economical. We all know the old adage of "time is money" in the corporate space, so any technology that saves time also saves money at some capacity.

 

Efficiency

Having access to the information whenever needed makes you more efficient in your efforts. You are able to make better use of their time when out of the office and should you need information quickly, being able to access your corporate real estate portfolio via your smartphone or tablet is much quicker than calling having your corporate real estate team try to pull up that information on the fly.

 

Productivity

Having access to data whenever needed makes the employee more productive. When more work gets done in less time productivity increases. With direct access to information remotely, more work can get done, and you do not have to wait for the information.

 

Better Customer Service

Imagine your clients or bosses calling you with questions about a particular property.  The last thing you want to tell them is “I don’t know” or “let me get back to you on that.”  Immediate access to information facilitates better collaboration and more effective communication.

 

Flexibility

Having this type of access to information allows you to be flexible with your schedule and daily routine. You can be working while traveling to meetings, out on sales calls, working from a client's site or from home. Many businesses have flexible work schedules and allow employees to telecommute and/or work from home. Having this type of flexibility provides better work/life balance and higher employee morale.

 

Convenience

With mobile access to the information needed employees can work around other non-work commitments. You can work waiting at the doctor’s office, or for your child to finish a music lesson or a practice.

 

The advantages of having access to your corporate real estate portfolio on your mobile device will empower you and provide for peak performance.
