Graphical assignment to work with touch screen devices such as Clever touch box

Touch screen devices are becoming more apparent in the working world. Team leaders will have group meetings, they may stand in front of a number of people, either on the shop floor or a meeting room at the start of the day. In a lot of cases we have found they use very large 85+ inch touch screen tv's / devices. 

Graphical assignment displays the work for the current day/week, the ability to tell a person they are doing a particular job and the quick handedness to drag and drop it to that user will make working day simple and more efficient. 

There are also kiosk style touch devices called clever box. Imagine a McDonalds style kiosk but with Maximo on. The device is all touch screen and will sit in the middle of shop floor for Team Leaders to do morning group meeting on with technicians. The ease of touch and dragging work to technicians will increase productivity.
