“Before Aladtec, firefighters had to visit the station to request a day off. Come November, Majors would drive to each member’s home, in order of seniority, to pen vacation picks onto a paper calendar. Today, members check schedules and make requests via smartphone, and equipment checks and more are done with iPads on forms designed and hosted in the Aladtec cloud.”
“The system we used before Aladtec wasn’t consistent with our expectations. It didn’t quite meet any other goal besides just a simple, schedule display basically. With Aladtec, we’re able to utilize different forms, and basically to not only show schedules, but to go past that, and produce reports that are useful for analytics within our department.”
“For years, we were using an Excel spreadsheet, and it became very complicated. We have a lot of overtime and a lot of extra meetings, duties, trainings, so it was very complex to fit it all on a spreadsheet … so we were looking for something more automated and something that people could check from home. The forms helped us organize things like equipment outages and the daily observation reports we do with our new hires. And we run reports on the forms (and) export that into a spreadsheet.”
