It’s time to inspect your inspection process, especially for mobile tools.
“We don’t admit it easily, but we all know we still use paper in the field because it’s such an easy way to create a standard. In the end, paper is still a very risky way of operating,” Gomocha’s CEO Martin Knook says.
Inspection processes that don’t utilize mobile tools are manual, slow, and prone to errors. Personnel use handwritten paper forms for field inspections, which can lead to issues with legibility and delays. Information and documentation are siloed, with photos and videos stored separately and requiring technicians to return to the office to upload content, which further delays updates.
Clients must also compile reports manually, sending reports days, not hours or minutes, later. These drawbacks not only result in dire delays but also in data loss, duplicated efforts, and compliance issues.
Meanwhile, mobile tools enable collaborative, real-time precision:
Seamless Field Inspections
Teams can complete all tasks right at their fingertips. Inspectors and field technicians use a mobile app to complete forms, capture photos and video, and log notes. Digital entry eliminates human error and duplication.
Auto-Sync
Everyone stays on the same page with data instantly syncing back-office systems via the cloud.
Real-Time Updates
No more anxious waiting and wondering about updates. Personnel and clients can access reports as soon as technicians have completed inspections.
Automated Reporting
Reports are pre-formatted and easily shareable with just one tap.
Inspections that utilize mobile tools yield faster billing, fewer errors, improved compliance, and increased client trust. Real-time delivery is crucial because it streamlines approvals and subsequent steps, whether for rework orders or compliance sign-offs. It also improves client satisfaction through faster reporting and increased transparency. Digital entries on mobile apps eliminate the need for rekeying or manual handoffs at any point in the inspection process.
Mobile apps are a game-changer for your inspections—seamless, auto-synced, real-time updates, and automated reporting. Inspection reports shouldn’t take days. Tighten them up today.
