That scenario has changed as paperless safety inspection becomes the standard across industries where regular inspection and maintenance are necessary; inspectors are realising the benefits of digital safety inspections.
The benefits of Digital safety inspections and mobile technology bridged the time gap between inspection and reporting. Mobile solutions and apps are now available to accommodate different inspection parameters and safety concerns, with real time data and visuals with the use of smartphones and other mobile devices.
Digital safety inspections keeps inspectors mobile, covering more ground and project sites as it takes less time to fill out digital forms, take necessary visual verification. Because these forms are available on smartphones and mobile devices, makes it easier to access, share and send out just about anywhere.
Electronic inspection hits more birds with one stone as reporting happens in real time. Assessment and evaluations via mobile solutions and applications send out the data to management as its happening, cutting down time on data gathering/compilation, encoding, analysis and reporting through channels. It is easier to pull out or access previous data/reports for comparative purposes or further verification. Paperless safety inspection deems it unnecessary to go through channels but rather opens up the route of communication wherein all concerned management staff have access to the information in a timely manner or as it is happening.
Digital safety inspection solutions are customisable to the needs of the organisation. Totally flexible to different business practices across industries from healthcare, construction management, manufacturing, property management and food/agriculture.
