Fieldsync

Offline-first jobs for field teams

Fieldsync · how it works

OfflineSignal backSynced

Field crews working with unreliable connectivity

A mobile app for crews working with unreliable connectivity — jobs sync the moment a signal comes back.

The problem

Field crews work in basements, rural sites and plant rooms where the signal drops without warning. Apps that assume a constant connection lose form data, show stale job lists, or simply stop working at the moment the crew needs them.

The usual workaround is paper notes or photos typed up later, which means late updates for the office, double entry for the crew, and mistakes in between.

How Fieldsync works

  1. Download the day before it starts. Jobs, addresses and checklists are stored on the device, so the crew has everything they need even with no signal.
  2. Work fully offline. Crews update job status, fill in forms and capture details offline. Nothing is lost when the connection drops.
  3. Sync the moment a signal returns. Changes upload automatically as soon as connectivity is back, so the office sees progress without anyone pressing a button.

Use cases

  • Installation and maintenance crews working on sites with poor coverage.
  • Logistics and delivery teams updating job status between depots.
  • Inspection checklists completed on site rather than typed up afterwards.
  • Giving dispatchers an up-to-date view of field work as crews reconnect.

Who Fieldsync is for

Fieldsync is for organisations whose crews spend their day on sites where connectivity cannot be trusted, including installation, maintenance, inspection and logistics teams. It is a good fit when crews currently fall back on paper or photos and someone retypes the details later. If your teams always work with a strong signal, a standard web app may be simpler and cheaper.

How we use it on engagements

On end-to-end development engagements we use Fieldsync as the foundation for offline-first mobile work instead of solving sync from zero. We start with your job types, forms and the back-office system the data needs to reach, then adapt the app and its sync rules to fit. The code, the infrastructure and the documentation are yours from the first commit.
