Publisher/Editor-In-Chief Sarah Howland talks one-on-one with Marcell Haywood of Dirt Pros about how the company is leveraging the Android OS.

Dirt Pros EVS is a single source, full service, integrated facilities maintenance firm whose service portfolio spans several specialty divisions throughout the state of Florida. Dirt Pros both designs and provides Maintenance & Repair Operation (MRO) programs, housekeeping, custodial, grounds maintenance, and corporate services programs for clients of all sizes in the healthcare, commercial real estate, education, hospitality, retail, and public venue industries.

Marcell D. Haywood is the CEO of Dirt Pros, and the first time I talked with Marcell we had a discussion about his search for a field service software solution to deploy to the 40 or so field technicians that service the company’s customer base. One thing Marcell was adamant about — the application selected must be Android-based. Ultimately, Dirt Pros decided to build its own mobile application, using the Android platform. Here, Marcell talks with us about his decision to build an app for Dirt Pros versus buying one, and why Android was essential in doing so.
