Using cloud computing for business efficiency

Severn Partnership were early adopters of cloud computing to aid scheduling of surveyors and equipment  - answering the age old question of: 

Who is where, using what equipment, driving which vehicle, doing what and when for whom ?

Why ? - to allow seamless scheduling of resources and ensure that planning survey activities goes as smooth as possible.  We were looking to avoid any double booking of time and enable real time scheduling between all management personnel.

Business linked picked up on this an asked Nick Blenkarn for advice & pointers...

Cloud computing also introduced us to working efficiently with collaborative documents - eradicating duplication of effort and numerous confusing revisions of spreadsheets or DOCs flying around by email.

Get your head out of the clouds and get it in the cloud.
