QESTField is a product designed for laboratory operations that are using the QESTLab Laboratory Information Management System in their construction materials and geotechnical testing laboratories.

QESTField is a solution for field technicians to replace paper-based information gathering onsite. A technician can see the work requests allocated to them for the day and register details of samples taken in the field and tests performed in the field.

All of this is done with real time access back to QESTLab so the field technician has access to the latest laboratory information such as maximum dry density results. Likewise the field test information is immediately available to laboratory staff for work scheduling and reporting purposes.

The benefits of the QESTField solution are significant. It helps to reduce effort and errors in data entry from hand written originals, improve report turn-around time with information available for reporting as soon as fieldwork is performed, and simplify communication with field technicians through making work requests immediately available to them.

QESTField will work with most mobile devices that have data and web browser capability (Windows Mobile, Blackberry, iPhone, etc.). If the device has GPS capability then this information can be read and recorded alongside sample location data.

QESTField is currently in the Beta Testing phase with selected customers and will be available for general release soon. If you are an existing QESTLab user and are interested in a demonstration and pricing please contact Spectra QEST sales.
