For some user/stakeholder
Who wants to achive some goal
The name of the system
Is a type of system
Which lets them perform some operation(s).
Unlike most compelling alternative
This gives them some advantages.
![Page 21: Getting your project off the ground (BuildStuffLt)](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/547c1fa5b4af9faa1f8b4609/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
For our client’s building managers
Who wants to wants to keep their property in good working conditions
The Mobility Workforce Manager
Is a work management system for mobile workers
Which lets them book and track rutine and incident based work orders.
Unlike the old system
This lets workers self-organize around tasks that they can solve, so the work is done faster.
![Page 22: Getting your project off the ground (BuildStuffLt)](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110302/547c1fa5b4af9faa1f8b4609/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
