Considering the number of tablets, smartphones and other similar devices that are in use in modern business houses today, it is only inevitable that internal company apps dealing with supply chain management, logistics, purchasing, maintenance, service, or sales support become more commonplace. Though the market for such a realm of productivity hasn't exploded yet, most studies indicate that the next couple of years will represent a steep upward climb in the number of such apps available.
After all, the number of smartphones and tablets in all sizes of companies has obviously exploded in the last couple of years, and such a hard trend is always picking up even more speed. At the same time, the cost of being able to deploy business intelligence in every function is steeply descending, in opposite proportion to the capability of our smart devices, of our wireless and wired networks, and of both private and public cloud systems. So with costs decreasing and capabilities increasing, the time to act is clearly now.
For the most part, it's more likely that one can already spot apps already out there that do such tasks as needed by any given organization in a general sense. There are some apps on the app stores that one can even buy for a nominal and maybe modify slightly to gear up the productivity that is needed, but it is worth it to get a headstart on creating a custom-built app for your company over the longer term, one that you have a handle over, and can redirect and experiment with flexibility at will.
While such a task can be expensive, there's often a pretty good upside of the eventual end result being tailor-made to fit the needs of every kind of employee on offer. The next step is to of course, restrict its use to only those with the valid credentials, which might prove to be a little more complex but still well within reach.
The bottomline of course, is that your organization needs to have the core competency of developing your own mobile apps that can give you competitive advantage, or having one developed from a third party to suit your requirements, rather than relying on off-the-shelf apps you and your competitors can get through various app stores. The companies that transform their business processes using mobility will achieve new levels of success in the months and years to come.
