Ostara Systems Launches Next Generation Sign-In Technology

MILTON KEYNES, U.K. - June 25, 2021 - PRLog -- Ostara Systems are proud to announce that they have recently launched their next generation contractor sign-in technology: The Ostara Bluetooth Beacon.

Working alongside their newly redeveloped and redesigned mobile app, the Ostara Bluetooth Beacon is a small, inconspicuous device that can be installed at a client's site, allowing engineers to sign-in, and prove that they are on site to start work. If engineers are unable to use Bluetooth, Ostara have also introduced GPS sign-in functionality. This provides the ability to sign-in to a job using the GPS coordinates of their mobile device, but does not track engineers in any way. The Mobile App will always ask for permission before fetching GPS coordinates.

The Bluetooth Beacon and GPS Sign-In functionality have been introduced as they represent a significant improvement on the existing engineers sign in process. They reduce the amount of administration required by sites, as there is no requirement for staff to organise or retrieve QR Codes for an engineer to sign in. This results in a quicker and less intrusive sign-in method.

By moving away from established sign-in practices such as QR codes, the Bluetooth Beacons and GPS functionality represent a paperless, and therefore more environmentally responsible approach, reducing client carbon footprints.

Additionally, in a world where fully electronic check in processes are becoming standard, the Bluetooth Beacon falls in line with industry standards.

Ostara are proud to announce that as of May 2021, over 1300 Bluetooth Beacons have been installed at client sites, for use by over 3,500 engineers with the new mobile app.
