Features
HeyLocation/Features
Dedicated user rights management system
Each user has access to data which is relevant to him/her. Data cannot be lost by accident and cannot even be maliciously deleted because of a two-tier deletion system.
Regional, locational, infrastructural, planning and implementational data
Collect and manage all information you need to implement your infrastructure project. Deposit your data in the right place and retrieve the information you need directly using logical links. You can also lead colleagues to the right information through easy-to-use linking.
Location rating
Do not choose locations intuitively anymore. Rate locations using your criteria and determine an index rating which can be used for comparisons. This allows you to make locational decisions with the highest degree of fairness and objectiveness.
Task management
Record and organise all your tasks to allow for transparent management of projects. You and your colleagues then always know what has to be done when and by whom. Even if someone is sick or on holiday no information is lost.
Appointment management
Record appointments which are relevant to you and thus never miss a deadline. You can even use automated events to assess the duration of single project phases and milestones.
Contact management
A central address book consisting of companies and contacts simplifies the daily workflow and the internal communication of teams. Using the appropriate functions, companies and contacts can also be linked with project-, location- and infrastructure elements, to keep track of the these relations. You thus always know who is responsible for what.
Cost management
Get a concrete overview of the cost of planning and implementation using actual and target values. Make concrete budget decisions and determine the right locations using clear processes.
Document management
Manage all important documents at a central place and link them across one or several layers. This reduces redundancies and your team is able to quickly get necessary informations. Separate file explorers or searching files in e-mails then belong in the past.
Reporting
To always keep projects and their current state in sight is an important necessity of management. Therefore a real-time report on progress -including budget utilisation- is available to inform about the general state of projects. Each project manager sees the reports which are relevant to them.
HeyLocation/Processes
Handover of preparation, planning, implementation and operation phases
Create transparent and regulated transitions through targeted passing of infrastructure projects or teams from one team to another. In this way, all participating persons are informed automatically and the whole process is correctly documented.
Automatic infrastructure configuration
Store individual infrastructures with related subelements and attributes, for example builds, serial numbers, software versions and infrastructure characteristics. Create a unified and central infrastructure database. Existing documents and logs can be easily linked to complete the documentation.
Responsibilities and roles
Grant users the appropriate rights automatically by simply assigning them projects and contacts and configuring them, all without the hassle of having to think about a complex or manual user rights management system. The system considers responsibilities and roles to decide which information is accessible.
Integrations
You use important third party systems, for example finance-, customer support- or asset-management systems and want to implement a seamless workflow for your team between these? No problem - HeyLocation was intentionally prepared to receive from and send data to third party systems. Following an initial request communication can be established automatically.
Milestone planning
Create individual milestones depending on the project to analyse the work stages which are important to you.
Location-budget-release process
Often clear budget limits exist which have to honoured. Using an already integrated mechanism the responsible participants are informed automatically if the budget is overrun and can decide if this is tolerable or not. A clean and unchangeable documentation of this process is created.
Automated notifications
HeyLocation will keep you up to date if something happens relevant to your projects and will notify you directly in the system and also, if you want that, via e-mail.
HeyLocation/SaaS & Enterprise
Enterprise solutions
Do you want to run HeyLocation in your own IT environment? We will gladly check the technical implementation of the software in your IT environment. Enterprise solutions are generally possible.
SaaS solutions
If you do not have an IT environment, we will also gladly supply HeyLocation as a SaaS solution. We will take care of the software's operation and you just need an up-to-date browser and an internet connection to start working immediately. Should you then wish to move to your own IT environment later, this is also possible.
Setup and customisation
Each system is unique, individualised and specially customised to fit your requirements. We take care of setting up, providing and also updating the software solution. You will always be attended to by an experienced IT project manager, who will take care of all consultations and organisational tasks.
Support
Our experienced team provides you with user and developer support. Telephone, e-mail or local support - we will provide the mode of support you need on the basis of a support contract, to allow you to always use our system with all its features and with the attributes you wish for.
