FendtONE is a new, unified operating system covering planning, execution and administration. For the first time, Fendt combines the familiar work in the field with the planning and administration tasks traditionally handled in the office. This way, FendtONE offers added benefit for family and large farms, as well as for agricultural contractors. Customer benefit and ease of use were the top priorities in its development.
FendtONE is split into FendtONE onboard – FendtONE products in the tractor – and FendtONE offboard – FendtONE products available at home or on the go. Built-in digital products, such as Fendt Task Doc (formerly VarioDoc Pro), run in the tractor. Planning and management happen off-board via a PC or mobile device. Existing and new digital solutions complement each other. With FendtONE, users can use their time more effectively and productively.
Fendt Task Doc simplifies work organization and documentation
Fendt Task Doc lets FendtONE easily get started with automatic, digital documentation. Fendt Task Doc includes functions for creating, managing, executing and documenting tasks. Offboard (outside the tractor cab), work orders are created with a few mouse clicks from home or on the go and sent straight to the machine. Onboard (in the tractor), the driver is informed about the work order, machines and area to be worked, and can start working right away. There’s no longer any need for lengthy coordination by phone or with service departments, and working hours are precisely recorded.
The work order is then run in the tractor and documented onboard using Fendt Task Doc. As soon as the work is finished, the driver can send a report on the completed work directly to the farm’s manager via mobile connectivity. The order report is stored offboard in the system and, if needed, can be exported as a PDF file. Paper-and-pen documentation isn’t needed, since all relevant order data is stored centrally in the system.
Documentation requirements around applying fertilizer and chemical crop-protection products keep growing. The order report shows important information for each field, such as the area worked or the amount applied. This way, the order report significantly simplifies meeting legal documentation requirements.
Professional work with select open interfaces
FendtONE has an interface with the independent agrirouter data-exchange platform. This interface lets you exchange information with various operating systems and machines, as long as they’re also connected to agrirouter. Farmers can choose their own systems and machines.
Only users own and manage their data, since agrirouter doesn’t store any data, and users themselves choose which data to pass on to other systems. The entire process is subject to the strict requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
FendtONE onboard is already available for the Fendt 300 and 700 Vario, and starting October 2020 will also be available for the Fendt 200 Vario. FendtONE offboard will be available starting February 2021 for the German, English and French markets.
