As per our research, 36% of TIC companies face significant challenges with on-site data collection. While #technology has made strides in inspections, this critical step still reveals inefficiencies and obstacles.  Some companies use tools like Alphatracker or iPads for data collection, yet issues persist. For instance, systems often require tedious steps to attach photos, or data is manually transferred between Excel and Word before generating reports. In many cases, a QA review delays the final output, leaving room for errors and slowing down the process.  Remote inspections offer potential solutions in specific scenarios, such as hazardous sites or oil refineries, where drones can gather data without the need for decontamination. However, new construction inspections are slower remotely, and strict accreditation rules sometimes require in-person surveyors, limiting #flexibility.  𝐀𝐭 Checkfirst, 𝐰𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝-𝐨𝐧:] - 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 makes on-site data collection seamless, with real-time inputs, instant photo uploads, and automated reporting that reduces manual work.  - 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 ensures optimal planning by matching the right inspector to the right job, improving efficiency for both remote and on-site tasks.  - 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 guarantees that all collected data is compliant and error-free, simplifying the reporting process.  With Checkfirst, data collection becomes faster, more accurate, and less of a hassle.

Route planning and analytics might sound like logistical details, but for 45% of TIC companies, they’re daily headaches. From managing long drives to quoting inspections accurately, the challenges are endless.    Most companies rely on rough estimates from tools like Google Maps to plan travel times and create quotes. While this works in a pinch, it often leads to miscalculations.    Some inspections are quoted as a flat job rate, while others use an hourly rate, yet crucial factors like delays, congestion, or lengthy routes aren’t accounted for. For instance, navigating London comes with extra costs like congestion charges and parking fees that can quickly pile up.    And then there’s the mileage. Inspectors often travel 300-400 miles a day, balancing long hours behind the wheel with the demands of inspections. Despite this, many companies don’t charge for travel time, missing opportunities to optimize and recover costs.    Here’s where Checkfirst's ScheduleAI takes the guesswork out of planning, optimizing routes to cut unnecessary travel, and factoring in location-specific details like traffic or restricted zones. Paired with analytics tools, it tracks time spent on travel versus inspections, helping you refine quotes and improve operational efficiency.    With Checkfirst, you’re not just saving time; you’re building smarter, more cost-effective workflows.    Why settle for rough estimates when precision is within reach? #routeplanning #analytics #inspection #trustbutcheckfirst #checkfirst

Coordinating jobs and work packs for inspections shouldn’t feel like solving a giant puzzle. Yet, 36% of TIC companies say it’s a significant challenge! And it’s easy to see why.    Managing work packs often means dealing with marked-up inspection metrics, customized risk assessments, and detailed method statements. On top of that, inspectors juggle geolocation planning, air map cross-references, and endless permissions. Many teams are still relying on spreadsheets for this process, making it error-prone and inefficient.    Take risk assessments, for instance. Every inspection, whether it's for a harbor or an air traffic control tower, needs its own specific #riskassessment. And getting permission to access these sites can be a real hassle. Then there's the added challenge of figuring out no-fly zones. Moreover, UK #law requires a detailed plan for every single thing being inspected. It's a lot to keep track of!   At Checkfirst, we’ve built tools to simplify these processes:    - 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐀𝐈 automates site planning, handles geolocation uploads, and flags restricted areas, saving hours of manual coordination.     - 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐀𝐈 ensures that all your risk assessments, WSEs, and documentation are compliant and error-free.     - 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐀𝐈 simplifies reporting and defect detection, so inspectors can focus on the work that matters most.    By automating workflows and streamlining communication, Checkfirst turns complex job packs into seamless processes. Let’s talk about how we can help you move from chaos to clarity in your #inspectionmanagement. #TIC #inspection #coordination #trustbutcheckfirst #checkfirst

Quality is something we often take for granted!    But behind every product we use and every system we rely on, there is someone, somewhere, who made sure it met the right standards. This doesn’t happen by chance; it’s the result of professionals who take their work seriously.   These are the people who meticulously double-check, test, inspect, and certify, ensuring that what reaches us is safe, reliable, and trustworthy. Without their #dedication, many of the things we depend on daily simply wouldn't function as they should, potentially putting us at risk.   At Checkfirst, we see this dedication up close every day.
