This companion app for AdminBase enables surveyors out in the field to complete electronic contracts that feed directly into Adminbase. There's no need to wait for surveyors to get back to the office, to manually input data into AdminBase or keep paper copies anymore. The app works offline too, seamlessly syncing the data when a connection does become available.
