MRC Global PVF Mobile Handbook
What kind of app did MRC Global build?
MRC Global built an interactive and intuitive mobile app that will enable its end users to seamlessly access PVF data by selecting and navigating through various tab options to view specifications and designs of various pipe, fittings and flanges. Store locator, standard conversion tools, usage of complex formulas, glossary of useful definitions, abbreviations, standards and specifications are also key features of the PVF Mobile Handbook App.
Why did MRC Global create an app?
MRC Global has always been a technology leader in our industry. Using our current, and very popular, PFF Handbook as a model, we saw that the development of an app with these same capabilities, and more, as an opportunity to improve our performance, operations and customer experience in the field.
What does this app do?
The main function of the new PVF Mobile Handbook app is to provide detailed product information, such as dimensional data and weight, for pipe, valves and fittings. Users will be able to quickly find then print, email a PDF or read the information they required from their screen. Users are able to conveniently toggle between imperial and metric measurements. The app will also include industry formulas, standards and definitions as well as metallurgy information. A key benefit of the new app is that information will be regularly updated and added to create the most comprehensive resource on PVF product information available.
Why should I download MRC Global’s app?
The app provides useful information in a user-friendly format. The information that is contained in the app will be available when and where they need it because only the map feature on the store locator section requires an internet connection to function.
