MidCentral Energy

MCE Field Services is the field-services app for MidCentral Energy crews. It is an internal company application. You need a MidCentral Energy work account to sign in — there is no public sign-up, and the app cannot be used without one. WHAT IT DOES Field technicians open job forms assigned to them (crew timesheets, equipment inspections, field tickets, panel-shop time entry), complete them on site, attach photos and a signature, and submit. Submissions queue locally when there is no cellular signal and sync when connectivity returns — essential for crews working at remote job sites without reliable coverage. HOW TO REVIEW Sign in with the demo account in the Sign-In Information above. It is a real account in our production system, provisioned specifically for App Review and scoped so it only sees demonstration data. 1. Home — quick actions and recent activity. 2. Forms — the job forms available to this account. 3. Open any form (e.g. "Expanse Field Ticket") to see data entry, photo capture and the signature field. 4. Submissions — submitted work. This list starts empty because the demo account has not submitted anything yet; complete and submit a form in step 3 and it will appear here. WHY THIS IS ON THE APP STORE AND NOT A CUSTOM APP (Guideline 4.2) We considered Apple Business Manager Custom App distribution and it does not fit our workforce. Our technicians use their own personal iPhones. We do not operate MDM, we do not issue company-owned devices, and our crews do not have Managed Apple IDs. Custom App distribution through Apple Business Manager requires either MDM-managed devices or redemption by Managed Apple IDs, neither of which exists in our environment. Standard App Store distribution is the only mechanism that lets an electrician install this on the personal phone already in their pocket. For that same reason we intend to request Unlisted App Distribution once this version is approved, so the app does not appear in search or charts and is installable only by direct link shared internally. Unlisted distribution requires an approved app, which is why we are submitting through standard review first. Our intent is not public discovery — it is simply installability on unmanaged personal devices. WHY SIGN-IN IS REQUIRED (Guideline 5.1.1(v)) All content is company job data belonging to our customers and crews. There is no meaningful unauthenticated state and no public content to display. Account-based access is permitted where the app's core functionality is tied to an existing employment relationship. App Sign in is restricted to United States due to operational policy, reviewer must sign in from US. SCOPE OF THIS RELEASE This is version 1.0. The demo account intentionally sees a focused set of forms so the review is straightforward; the full production catalog is larger and role-scoped per employee. CONTACT If anything is unclear, if the demo account has any trouble, or if you have questions about our distribution model, please contact us at the number and email in the Contact Information above and we will respond immediately. We are happy to discuss the Business Manager question directly if that would help.
