TAAP Me apps show power of mobile technology

TAAP Me applications are single-user entry point applications for consumers and business 'champions' and will be available through Microsoft's Windows Mobile Marketplace.

A Mobile Adoption Plan (MAP) is essential for any business looking to leverage the benefits of this technology.

A business champion or analyst can utilise these products at a low cost to help evaluate how mobile software can be used, and gain insights into how efficiencies and cost reductions can be achieved.

TAAP Me applications are said to offer opportunities to experience the power of mobile technologies without any risk or obligation.

Although aimed mainly at users within a business environment, the TAAP Me applications are also claimed to have consumer appeal.

Some of the forms-based applications available include TAAP Delivery - an application for scheduling and completing delivery/collection jobs; TAAP Maintenance - an application for ensuring maintenance jobs are logged, allocated a status, and signed-off when complete; and TAAP AutoInspect - an application that allows a comprehensive vehicle inspection to be completed, including photographic annotations to mark any damage or highlight specific features.

Some applications will use the GPS mapping features built into many PDA handsets.

All the information collected via these applications will be further enhanced by a secure website viewer, where users can 'send' their data (inclusive of photographs and signatures).

This will enable users to share information with whoever they choose to - whether this is a customer requiring proof of delivery details, or a potential car purchaser wishing to view a vehicle inspection before buying.
