Jigx demonstrated their mobile field forms solution for Acumatica at the Summit Marketplace. The native mobile app platform delivers offline-first capabilities for field workers in construction, manufacturing, and field services.
The solution addresses a critical challenge for companies with deskless workers who need to access and update Acumatica data from job sites without reliable connectivity. With full offline functionality, field teams can capture time, materials, photos, and signatures even without Wi-Fi, with automatic syncing when connection is restored.
Jigx's integration with Acumatica enables field operations including job scheduling, payment capture, custom forms, workflow management, and real-time collaboration between office and field teams. The platform is particularly valuable for construction companies managing multiple job sites where paper-based processes slow down billing and increase administrative overhead.
