Stephen is in charge of testing the fire alarms in our communal properties each week. Previously, he carried a big folder of paper around with him. He had to write notes and update the housing system when he got back to the office. This year he has swapped paperwork for mobile technology. Now, he can instantly input the test results on his mobile table. It saves time and means he can instantly order any repairs needed while he is on site.

Leeds Federated is looking for new ways to use mobile technology across the business. The mobile fire testing is one of several initiatives to use technology to improve efficiency, save time and offer value for money.
