5 Ways Mobility + AI are Changing Frontline Work

Good data starts in the field, but it often doesn't survive the trip there. Field technicians spend real time on work that shouldn't require so much manual effort: knowing which field captures the problem, submitting a notification that's missing the one detail a planner actually needed, or finding out too late that the wrong part was ordered or the crew showed up at the wrong time.

In this session, we'll unpack why these breakdowns keep happening and what they cost: jobs that don't start on schedule, planners spending their mornings chasing down details that should've been captured on day one, and labor and parts costs that run over as a result. From there, we'll walk through 5 ways the new AI capabilities in Prometheus Mobile EAM are transforming how frontline technicians work:

1. Notifications created in plain language: Technicians describe what happened, using voice-to-text to capture the most detail, with no need to hunt for which field to fill in or what it's called.
2. Guided follow-up questions: The AI asks for what a complete notification needs, including equipment, location, priority, and breakdown status, instead of leaving fields blank for someone else to chase down later.
3. Complete data at the point of entry: Required information is captured in the conversation itself, not caught after the fact by the planner.
4. The right details reach the planner the first time: This cuts down on material hotshotting, miscommunicated scope, and crews arriving without the right parts or at the wrong time.
5. More real work actually gets captured: Work that used to go unreported because typing into the wrong field felt like too much friction now feeds into sharper forecasting and a truer view of the backlog.

We’ll also preview an exclusive look at the Prometheus Mobile app revamp: how we've streamlined the app's foundation to move faster on new features and capabilities going forward.

Who should attend: Maintenance and reliability managers/directors overseeing field technicians, Plant or operations managers responsible for uptime at remote or large facilities.
