Every utility company is required to carry out inspections of the facilities that they provide services to, ensuring the safety and functionality of the on-site equipment whilst also collecting data and information on the facility itself to provide recommendations for future services based on statistics like occupancy patterns.
Typically, inspection observations are recorded by pen and paper and are transcribed into digital databases later, either by hand or by scanning inspection forms. This allows opportunities for error data recording. By centralizing inspections materials and forms in a single mobile or web application, it is possible to drastically reduce issues with form quality and legibility and eliminate the middle-step of transcription, simply by automatically forwarding information to a database on form save/submit, or any other event.
