WorkApps releases first-of-its-kind industry product
WorkApps releases first-of-its-kind industry product for the advertising and media sector
New Delhi, 6th September 2016: In a first-of-its kind move, WorkApps, an enterprise workflow collaboration company (EWC), has introduced its first digital inside enterprise management product, which will cater to advertising agencies and media groups. This innovation aims to fulfill each need of the creative and media teams with the full arsenal of data and technology solutions to build business-changing ideas that meld creativity and hard numbers.
Rudrajeet Desai, CEO, WorkApps, said, “Collaboration is very intrinsic to the advertising industry. It is almost as if the entire agency runs a sort of 3-legged race that requires creative, servicing, planning, media teams to work together. The collaborative ability of WorkApps allows large enterprises to create inclusive solutions, involved innovation, and a work culture that is collaborative from the inception of thought.”
MVS Murthy, COO, WorkApps, further added, “The more creative we are, the more chaotic it is! It is this chaos that needs minimization and channeling for better quality output. Imagine sharing real-time information and knowledge so that teams can get off the blocks and discuss simultaneously as the blocks originate.”
As industry research shows, the double whammy is that, apart from chaos at work, the industry as a whole is afflicted by: Loss of productivity, high employee attrition, cost of replacement of staff, porus knowledge management systems and strained client relationships. Now companies are also discouraging the use of WhatsApp for office communication because they fear losing sensitive data due to loopholes in the app.
In a recent study, The Boston Consulting Group found that “over the past fifteen years, the amount of procedures, vertical layers, interface structures, coordination bodies, and decision approvals needed…has increased by anywhere from 50% to 350%.” What’s more, in the most complicated organizations, “managers spend 40% of their time writing reports and 30% to 60% of it in coordination meetings.”
This customized product has been created specifically for Advertising, Event Management, Public Relations, Digital Marketing, Consulting Services and Media Groups. It consists of tools such as Plan and execute campaigns with projects, File manager for storing and sharing creatives, Timesheets to record time spent on client campaigns, Task lists to track all work related to campaigns, collections and payments with workflows, pitch planning and client interaction with discussions etc. benefitting each level and area of employee-employer groups. It aims to increase the productivity and efficiency of creative and media teams by 20% increasing the cost by just 0.2%.

Volvo first in the world with self-driving truck in underground mine
Volvo’s fully autonomous truck is the first in the world to be tested in operations deep underground in the Kristineberg Mine. The self-driving truck is part of a development project aimed at improving the transport flow and safety in the mine. The truck will cover a distance of 7 kilometres, reaching 1,320 metres underground in the narrow mine tunnels.
“This is the world’s first fully self-driving truck to operate under such tough conditions. It is a true challenge to ensure that everything works meticulously more than 1300 metres underground,” says Torbjörn Holmström, member of the Volvo Group Executive Board and Volvo Group Chief Technology Officer.
Volvo Group is now releasing a film showing the opportunities that open up with autonomous trucks. The film was recorded in harsh operating conditions in the Kristineberg Mine 100 kilometres from Arvidsjaur in northern Sweden. Torbjörn Holmström, who takes part in the film, wants to show how safe the truck is. He didn’t hesitate to stand in the middle of the mine gallery as the truck approached him.
“No matter what type of vehicle we develop, safety is always our primary concern and this also applies to self-driving vehicles. I was convinced the truck would stop but naturally I felt a knot in my stomach until the truck applied its brakes!”
“No matter what type of vehicle we develop, safety is always our primary concern and this also applies to self-driving vehicles. I was convinced the truck would stop but naturally I felt a knot in my stomach until the truck applied its brakes!”
The entirely self-driving truck that takes the lead role in the film is a specially equipped Volvo FMX. Using various sensors, it continuously monitors its surroundings and avoids both fixed and moving obstacles. At the same time, an on-board transport system gathers data to optimise and coordinate the route and fuel consumption. The truck is part of a development project and is being tested in real-life operation for the very first time.
