HETF
Read full descriptionHide full description
HETF replaces the paper a heavy equipment contractor fills out at the end of every shift on a wildfire assignment. Fill out the Emergency Equipment Daily Shift Invoice on the phone, collect both signatures on the screen β the contractor's and the government inspector's β and email the finished PDF to the incident's Finance section before you leave. No more carbon copies, no more waiting until you are back in cell range with a scanner. WHAT IT FILES β’ Emergency Equipment Daily Shift Invoice β the daily, dual-signed money form β’ After-Dispatch Roster (Exhibit J) β your equipment and crew as dispatched β’ Single Resource Shift Ticket (OF-297) β for a resource working on its own BUILT FOR THE PAPER, NOT AROUND IT Every form prints exactly like the printed original, in the same fixed rows and the same order, so a Finance clerk reads it the way they always have. The generic pre-printed equipment type is what prints β a Feller Buncher prints as a Feller Buncher, whatever you call your machine. FILL IT ONCE Your Company Profile β business details, equipment, operators, VIPR agreement number β fills in the top of every form. Set up a Task Force for a dispatch and every shift filed against it starts pre-filled with the incident, the agreement number and the resource order. THE REST OF THE SHIFT β’ Photograph receipts for reimbursable expenses as you go β’ Keep inspection reports, licences and agreements where you can reach them β’ Re-send any form you have already filed, to a new address or the same one β’ Add a dated note to a document after it has gone out β it becomes a new version, printed after the signatures, and the original stays exactly as it was signed β’ Invite a foreman so more than one person can file for the company WORKS WHERE THE WORK IS A signed invoice is never lost to a dead bar of signal. It is held on the phone and sent as soon as there is a connection, so you can close out a shift at the fire and let it deliver on the way down the hill. Sign in with Face ID. Everything is stored against your company account, so a new phone signs in and has your equipment, your crew and your history. HETF is for contractors working under a federal Emergency Equipment Rental Agreement. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a product of the USDA Forest Service or any government agency.
