Nearly 9 in 10 field service organizations outsource some or all of their field service work, and for a number of reasons: to increase geographic coverage, reduce labor costs, provide flexibility to varying workloads, or to replace retiring workers.

TSIA, in cooperation with ServiceMax from GE Digital, is conducting a short 3-question survey to identify which outsourcing models are the most popular today and in the future. If your company offers onsite service for enterprises, or customers at home, please click here and take the survey.

The results of the survey will be presented back to you in a webinar on December 13. Stay tuned for more details.

Whether you are in the business of running a power plant, developing an oil field or operating a fleet of aircraft, mission critical assets need timely maintenance to ensure consistent uptime. Asset failures can cost companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost revenue, reduced durability, and increased safety and compliance risks. By transforming service delivery from manual processes to digital service execution, companies provide smarter maintenance while also optimizing resource utilization and improving safety and compliance indicators.

Join this webinar from ServiceMax from GE Digital to learn how to improve your service execution with ServiceMax Asset Service Management. This enterprise-scale solution transforms service delivery by leveraging data analytics, mobile computing and industrial applications. Specifically, the webinar will address:

• How to optimize utilization of crews, technicians and dispatchers with powerful scheduling and dispatch solution
• How to reduce unplanned downtime by leveraging IoT and APM technology for predictive maintenance
• How to achieve greater safety and compliance with built-in processes

Enterprises in all industries are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to assist and augment human decision-making, to streamline, and even reinvent their business models. For field service, AI holds the promise of making service operations more efficient, reducing overhead, cutting costs, reducing risk, and maximizing revenue.

In this webinar we will address trends and challenges in AI, differentiate facts from fiction, and take a pragmatic look at use cases that are relevant to servicing your company’s assets. In a live product demo, we will show use cases across all industries that leverage AI such as predicting parts and time to service, as well as calculating drive time.

Our Maxpert series of product assets offer unique value to our customers and prospects by diving deeper into the various product areas. In fact, our earlier Maxpert videos are catalogued here for the interested. In addition, we offer Maxpert webinars which have the value proposition of a product area, features and benefits, a case study and a live demo!

For service organizations of all types and sizes, selling services -- not just products -- often delivers significantly improved margins. For many service providers, service IS their entire business.

ServiceMax empowers organizations to define and manage a wide range of service plans that enable expansion into new markets, and increase service revenue and profits – all within a complete, web and mobile field service delivery solution. Implementing service contracts empowers service organizations to increase billable hours, never give away service or parts for free, have more accurate billing and take the customer experience to a new level.

A number of recent research reports have discussed the convergence of Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) and Field Service Management (FSM) software. Some analysts raise the possibility that in the future, organizations will look for single vendors of combined EAM and FSM capabilities.

This webinar will explain why EAM and FSM systems are converging, why they are (still) distinct application spaces, and why organizations seeking to optimize asset performance and service delivery will want to integrate purpose-built, best-of-breed FSM, EAM, and application performance management (APM) solutions. You also will learn:

• Why and where EAM and FSM systems are converging
• Why they are (still) distinct application spaces
• Why organizations will want to combine EAM and FSM to optimize service delivery

In field service, the customer is front and center in everything you do. Your success depends on the strength of your interactions with your customers and their experience with you.

Your customers know what they want, how they want it, and speed is of the essence. They are always connected, increasingly social, and self-educating, becoming more digitally engaged and less enthused about picking up the phone to ask routine questions or request service.

ServiceMax Customer Communities empowers them with a self-service portal that is fully integrated with your ServiceMax application. Carrying your brand, it connects you to your customers. And your customers have a dedicated place where they can – quickly, easily, and safely – access information, perform simple tasks, or see the history of their installed products.

Through ServiceMax Customer Communities you can keep service costs low, your customers happy and ultimately drive top-line revenue.

63% of technicians say they need better access to knowledge base in the field. That’s why we are partnering with Infomill to deliver productivity and customer experience benefits by integrating a curated knowledge base with ServiceMax.

Servicing medical devices in the field is unlike any other field service. Human lives and wellness depend on medical equipment uptime. To deliver fast First-Time fix rates, your field engineers need to have a detailed knowledge of complex installed equipment, troubleshooting techniques, replacement parts and their availability. Failure to deliver excellent service and lack of adherence to FDA regulations can result in missed SLAs, frustrated customers, penalties and, ultimately, less business for your company.

Join this webinar to learn how your field service team can increase First-Time fix rates while improving customer satisfaction. You will hear Anna Startseva, Sr. Product Marketing Manager at ServiceMax and Bo Wandell, VP of Sales and Business Development at Infomill, discuss how a curated mobile knowledge base that is integrated with your field service and inventory management solution will help achieve and beat your field service KPIs. Topics will include:

Delivering customer outcomes, not just regular maintenance and repair, is driving field service organizations to innovate. Customers are no longer willing to invest in expensive, complex equipment without assurances of a good return. This means equipment performance is at the center of any purchasing justification and service organizations are in a great position to ensure optimal performance. But optimal performance may be different depending on the customer and the product they need. In order to enable more customized care, service organizations need to employ different types of service strategies. They also need innovative ways to implement and execute them.

If you’re looking to deliver better customer outcomes through next-generation services, please join Tushar Sharma, Product Manager and Micki Collart, Sr. Product Marketing Manager at ServiceMax from GE Digital for a webinar on ServiceMax’s Proactive Maintenance capabilities.
