Here are the key takeaways from his insightful interview.
Q: Could you elaborate on the industry-specific software solutions and products OneCraft provides?
A: We’re transforming fire asset tracking with a cutting-edge system that streamlines inspection schedules and facilitates inspections through mobile apps. Our cloud-based solutions can generate service and inspection reports online, making the entire operation paperless.
Moreover, our system allows inspectors to capture photos of cylinders and assets during inspections, enabling them to attach up to three images for each report. This not only enhances the accuracy of documentation but also ensures that customers maintain comprehensive tracking of inspections.
Our platform also seamlessly integrates inventory management, Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMCs), and quotations. This provides a complete historical record of all activities and reports. Furthermore, we provide a smarter way to manage fire asset inspections, prioritizing safety.
We offer robust cloud-based software powered by a Microsoft SQL database, backed by a state-of-the-art data center. All our data infrastructures adhere to ISO 27001 standards for security, ensuring clients’ data remains secure and protected.
Optimized for mobile use, we also offer a dedicated mobile app to conduct inspections, submit service requests, and manage all related tasks. In addition to this, our solutions provide a perfect blend of convenience and security with cutting-edge software!
Q: Who are your target customers?
A: Our solution is primarily designed for service providers who manage fire assets for companies. However, we’ve recently noticed a growing interest from companies with substantial fire assets to maintain. These organizations are reaping significant benefits from our system. We are exploring hospitals, large institutions, major corporations, and construction firms. These entities are firmly in our sights as we expand our outreach.
Q: How does your product differentiate itself from competitors in the market, and what unique value do you offer that sets you apart?
A: Indeed, a few companies outside India have developed similar software, but within India, we see a significant gap in the market. Recently, we’ve encountered several prospects expressing their search for a solution like ours, underscoring the demand for this innovative software. We believe there is no competition in India offering anything comparable to what we provide.
Q: Could you share your vision for the company’s future, including any upcoming projects or strategic goals you aim to achieve?
A: Currently, we offer the base for a fire asset tracking system. However, we are committed to elevating our solution to the next level by integrating advanced features such as geo-tagging and geo-location tracking. This allows us to monitor technicians conducting inspections in real-time. These enhancements are on the horizon. We will include them in our upcoming versions, further refining our offering.
Q: Do you have any plans for international expansion?
A: We are aggressively engaging with several clients in the Gulf region and the broader Middle East. Our discussions are shaping positively. We are also anticipating orders from these discussions within the next month. Undoubtedly, we want to expand our reach internationally and explore opportunities overseas.
