solutions for field service, today announced the successful integration

Enterprise™ dispatch and mobile software.
“Our customers now have the benefit of an end-to-end

industry,” said Rick Hartman, Maxwell Systems vice president of
marketing and general manager of the wireless division. “Together, our
expertise, professional support, and implementation services are
unmatched in the industry. We offer the first one-stop shopping for
complete field service automation.”
“We expect tremendous response to this offering. We
already have customers signed and will begin installing the system in a
few weeks,” said Judy Johnson, FieldCentrix senior vice president of

FieldCentrix Enterprise software uses wireless
communications, handheld computers, advanced software, and the Internet
to automate the costly, time-consuming, paper-intensive processes
associated with field service operations. These processes include
communication between the field technician and the office, receipt of
work assignments, completion of work orders, and making information
ready for invoice and payroll.
Maxwell Systems’ software automates the backoffice
and provides customers with streamlined accounts receivable, payroll,
and general ledger capabilities. Other back-office modules, including
job costing, material handling, equipment costing, and inventory
control, are also available.
