Offline Field Worker App
Capture work in remote areas, even with no signal.
Field workers often lose signal in the very places they need to capture work. We build apps that work offline, so staff can take photos and record notes anywhere, and the data syncs the moment they are back online.
Why does field data go missing?
When an app needs a connection to work, a dead spot means staff fall back to paper or memory. The data is captured late, if at all, and the detail is lost.
Capture work with no signal
Staff record work on site even with no signal.
Take photos and notes on site
Photos and notes captured in the field, on the spot.
Sync it all the moment you reconnect
Everything syncs automatically the moment they are back online.
What lost field data costs you
When field data does not make it back, the whole business feels it. Work is captured twice, once on paper and once at a desk. Records are thin, so billing and compliance suffer. Decisions are made on old data. And staff lose trust in a tool that fails them in the field.
Work captured twice, on paper then again at a desk
Field data written on paper, then re-keyed back at a desk.
Thin records that hurt billing and compliance
Patchy records that cost you on billing and compliance.
Decisions made on old or partial data
Calls made on stale data because the field is out of sync.
We build apps that work where the signal does not
We build field apps that store data on the device and sync on their own when a connection returns. Staff capture photos, notes and forms anywhere, with confidence the data is safe until it reaches the office.
Work offline first
We build the app to work with no connection, so staff can capture everything they need in remote areas.
Capture in full
Staff take photos, record notes and fill forms on site, with the location and time captured for them.
Sync on reconnect
The app syncs on its own the moment a connection returns, so nothing is rekeyed and nothing is lost.
Use the data
The captured data flows into your systems and dashboards, so the office works from current, complete records.
The result: field work captured once, anywhere, and back in your systems the moment there is signal.
Customer Spotlight
How this works in practice
Crews working in remote areas lost signal where they needed to capture work, so they fell back to paper and rekeyed it later. We built an app that worked offline, captured photos and notes on site, and synced on its own when the device was back online. The double handling stopped.
The outcome
Work captured anywhere, signal or not
Photos and notes saved on the device
Data synced the moment you reconnect
One record, captured once
Safe by design
AI is only useful if you can trust it. We build automation and agents you can stand behind in an internal review or in front of a regulator. We design for Australian data and privacy expectations, which matters most in government, health, education and financial services. Your data is never used to train public models.
Controls we build in
- Identity controls
- Least-privilege access
- Clear data-handling rules
- Audit logs
- Human handoffs
Other examples of our work
What good looks like
Electricity Transmission Operator
SharePoint + Power Automate
The client was moving its Objective records system to the cloud, but files kept falling out of sync with SharePoint, which put compliance at risk.
We built a Power Automate integration that keeps files up to date between Objective and SharePoint Online, in line with their cybersecurity rules.
Outcomes
- Less manual document handling
- Files kept current in SharePoint
- Stronger data protection and compliance
Cement Manufacturer
SharePoint
The client needed a modern, secure place to work and share documents.
We set up a SharePoint environment with an intranet, people directory and document libraries.
Outcomes
- 8 team sites set up
- 2 TB moved across
- A modern, secure intranet
Chemical Manufacturer
Microsoft 365
Microsoft Teams and SharePoint Online had been enabled but the team was not using them, and there was no governance around either.
We reviewed the setup, designed a best practice approach and set a phased roadmap for adoption.
Outcomes
- 500+ orphan documents found
- Idle Teams cleaned up
- A clear path to adoption
Ports Operator: AI Scheduling Agent
Microsoft Copilot
Staff extracted shipment scheduling data from email attachments and websites manually, so reporting ran late and sources never quite lined up.
We built an AI agent that reads the attachments and websites itself, files the data and flags changes to stakeholders.
Outcomes
- Schedules gathered automatically
- One source of truth
- Changes flagged as they happen
Outside School Hours Care Provider: Voice AI Agent
Copilot Studio
Directors spent much of each day answering policy calls from centre managers, covering everything from incident reporting to child safety rules. Answers varied between people, and many frontline staff speak English as a second language.
We built a voice-enabled AI agent, grounded only in the client’s policies, that answers first so Directors do not have to.
Outcomes
- Directors freed from routine calls
- Consistent answers every time
- Inclusive for bilingual staff
City Council
Nintex + SharePoint
The property acquisition process was slow and complex, with delays and inaccuracies at each hand-off.
We mapped the process end to end, then automated it with Promapp, Nintex and SharePoint Online.
Outcomes
- Acquisitions move faster
- Fewer errors
- Progress visible in real time
Early Learning Peak Body
Power Pages
A new funding model required two-way data exchanges between every kindergarten, the governing body and Queensland Treasury, and there was no portal to handle it.
We built a portal in Power Pages as the one-stop shop for submissions, documents and live funding data.
Outcomes
- One portal for 38 kindergartens
- Funding visible in real time
- Secure, accurate exchanges
Regional Council
Power Platform
Power Platform and Microsoft 365 had grown across seven environments with little governance.
We reviewed the whole setup and supported the changes to tighten security and control.
Outcomes
- Governance across 7 environments
- 1,400 monthly runs under control
- 200+ app launches a month
Insurance Provider
SharePoint + Power Platform
An unsupported SharePoint 2010 setup was a security risk and held back HR and Payroll.
We moved this insurance provider to SharePoint Online and rebuilt the key forms and approvals in Power Platform.
Outcomes
- Payback in six months, not two years
- Sensitive HR data better protected
- One setup for staff worldwide
State Education Department
Identity + Automation
Assigning Microsoft licences at this state education department was a slow, manual job that struggled to keep up with growing staff numbers.
We automated licence assignment from HR data using Azure AD groups and PowerShell, starting with a proof of concept.
Outcomes
- Licences assigned automatically
- Lower admin overhead and cost
- Auditable, compliant process
Common questions about offline field apps
What is an offline field worker app?
It is an app that keeps working when there is no signal. Field workers often lose coverage exactly where they need to capture work, so the app stores what they enter on the device and syncs the moment they reconnect.
How does an offline field app work?
The app stores everything on the device, so staff can capture photos, notes and forms with no connection. When the device is back online, the app sends the data on its own, so nothing is lost and nothing is keyed twice.
What happens to data captured with no signal?
It is saved safely on the device until a connection returns. The moment there is signal, the app syncs the data to your systems, with the location and time it was captured.
What can field workers capture?
Photos, notes, forms and readings, with the location and time recorded for them. We design the app around the work your staff do, so it stays quick and simple in the field.
Which devices does it run on?
It runs on the phones and tablets your staff already carry, on both Apple and Android, so there is no special hardware to buy.
What is it built on?
We build on the Microsoft Power Platform, so the data lands in your environment with proper controls and flows into the dashboards and systems you already use.
What if two people change the same record offline?
The app has to decide, and we agree that rule up front rather than leaving it to chance. Usually the later change wins and both versions are kept, so nothing is silently lost.
How long can it stay offline?
Long enough for a normal working day, or several, depending on how much is captured. We size that against how your crews actually work rather than a default.
Do workers have to remember to sync?
No. It syncs on its own as soon as there is a connection. Anything that depends on people remembering will eventually lose data.
