Meet Resco Houston – your workforce knowledge software

Resco Houston provides a knowledge library and AR remote assistance calls within a single app. Technicians or any other field pros can access work instructions anytime and fulfill their tasks faster.

Instant access to know-how empowers workers to learn while on the job and carry out tasks autonomously. And if they encounter a bigger challenge, it also allows the workforce to contact a professional that can guide them through the process using visual AR directions.

Houston will help you ensure efficient operations and even tackle the ever-growing skill gap, as well as the aging workforce issue.

Expanding asset maintenance and incident management capabilities

The Summer Update delivers several new functionalities covering asset maintenance. Together with Resco Inspections this new set of tools greatly expands the capabilities of Resco’s software, with enhanced focus on field service and maintenance management.

The scheduling and planning of maintenance jobs has been completely overhauled. For an even easier setup of preventive actions, maintenance plans can be automated based on date, recurrence, and frequency.

Furthermore, the brand-new notification badges on home screen items help you react quickly to the latest developments. They are further complemented by auto-refreshing views – a configurable functionality that keeps information displayed in a view up to date, refreshing it regularly based on user preference. Which makes even extensive incident management a breeze.

Inspections magic with new Questionnaire wizard

A new Questionnaire wizard improves the user experience when creating questionnaire templates from scratch. The wizard walks you through essential questionnaire settings (name, scoring, versioning, storage, and more.) and recommends default options for each.

Smarter planning and integrations with third-party systems via OData for all Resco apps

The revamped visuals allow mobile users to navigate the map view more fluidly in My Route/Route Plan sections of Resco apps.

And when Routes AI is enabled (formerly known as Smart Planning), the optimization algorithm will make sure, appointments will not be planned outside of opening hours available for any entity. Users can also mark appointments as fixed and after the optimization is completed, fixed appointments will always stay in their original time slot.

The Summer Update 2021 also keeps adding to the integration possibilities of Resco solutions. The recently added OData service empowers system admins to connect with any enterprise system that supports the Open Data Protocol (OData v4).
