- Alerts and notifications: Triggered by a wide range of events in applications across the B2W platform, notifications and alerts can now be sent automatically by email or text to select recipients, allowing for efficient and immediate communication.
- A new dashboard: Makes it easier for contractors using the B2W Maintain application to track and report on the performance of their equipment maintenance operations in real-time and according to industry-standard key performance indicators (KPIs) established by the CFMA and AEMP organizations.
- Clock in/out, time stamping, and location validation enhancements: Along with the ability to add equipment meter readings and photo attachments to daily work, logs have been added to the B2W Employee App for tracking hours and productivity of individual employees.
