Google has just release a brand new application for the iPhone on the App Store. Dubbed Coordinate, it’s a workforce management tool aimed at business users that the company says will improve the efficiency of your mobile teams. The Mountain View, California-headquartered search Goliath explains that by getting real-time visibility into where teams are and what jobs they are doing, “work can be allocated in a smarter, more efficient way” using the mobile Coordinate app. The software is targeted at businesses so it doesn’t work with consumer Google accounts…

Note that this software requires a Google Coordinate license for this mobile app to work

On of its better features is mobile job management, meaning managers can enter details about jobs and assign them to team members, right from their device. Each team member who has the Coordinate app on his or her device will then receive an alert about new tasks.

Google Coordinate is optimized for the iPhone 5 and requires at least iOS 5.1.

Manage jobs: Your business has lots to do every day. Google Coordinate makes it easy to capture all the information needed for a job and to assign them to your team members with instant notifications.
