Abstract
A field crew management system receives status reports at a management server from a plurality of field devices. The status reports can include information related to a work order associated with each field device. The status reports can be regularly updated during operational time of each work order. Once the status reports are received at the management server, a work order tracking sheet is populated with the information contained in the status reports. Progress reports based upon the work order tracking sheet are then generated for a requesting party at specified time interval and sent to the requesting party.
