Mobility without Rich Data is just a Toy!

When WRIT decided to roll out mobile technology to its leasing reps and senior execs, it knew that the solution had to have deep, rich data if it was to become well adopted. The

WRIT solution combines JDE and SalesForce data with documents stored on SharePoint, and delivers them on the iPad using Planimetron’s Propidex technology. Interactive stacks

and floorplans with current leases and deals in progress, photos, documents and all available in a single integrated environment. Find out the trials and tribulations, pros and

cons as well as the feedback we are getting from the WRIT users from Harold Smarr, Director of Business Application Development (WRIT ) and Annette Wilde (Planimetron).

Propidex Implementation

• Fairly straight forward since full version of Propidex data had already been in production and vetted.

• Application was prebuilt, so design decisions limited to selection predefined themes and views.

• Selection of photos and marketing documents to include.

with, they were the only ones with a ‘cool’ app.
