Do you want to streamline your field inspection and maintenance operations? Do you use a paper-based or ERP solution that is prone to error, difficult to maintain, and does not allow customization based on your business needs? We are here to help! With Clappia, you can build a highly flexible and transparent app to conduct your field inspections efficiently.

Field inspection process is one of the most critical processes of field force management. However, most field inspection processes today are entirely manual, with no consistent check-list or process to carry out the inspection. Paper-based processes are time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult to manage. On the other hand, ERP-based solutions are mainly generic, with no way to tailor them to your specific business requirements.

With Clappia, you can streamline your field inspection process, introduce transparency and guide the inspector through the inspection stages directly using a smartphone app.

Clappia’s Automatic Field Inspection System

The Automatic Field Inspection System template has the following features:

Extract Inspector Details

The app uses formula blocks to extract the inspector's name and email address based on the user account. The app also captures the date and time while filling out the form. The date and time blocks allow customization to disable inspectors from modifying the date or time. It ensures that you always have. a uniform and precise data set.

‍

Detect Inspector Location

With Clappia, it is possible to accurately find out the GPS location of the user. The app uses a GPS location block to detect the GPS location of the inspector automatically. It allows accurate tracking of the inspector’s location. You can also configure this block to ensure that the inspector cannot manually change the GPS location.

‍

Generate Inspection ID

Clappia allows you to organize your reports by generating a unique ID for each inspection report. The app uses a unique numbering block to generate a distinct ID for the inspection report. It allows further tracking and analysis of the inspection report and helps create a PDF with a unique ID.

Fill Inspection Checklist

The app uses single selector blocks to allow the field inspector to complete the checklist by clicking yes or no for each item based on their observation. There are 26 inspection checkpoints; the inspector must go through each and provide individual answers.

Compute Inspection Score & Inspection Result

Clappia allows you to use a formula block and write basic to complex logical expressions to make dynamic calculations based on real-time inputs. The app calculates the inspection score and result based on the inspector’s information on the inspection checklist.

‍

Overall Inspection Rating

A rating block is used, which allows the inspector to provide their rating based on the entire field inspection process.

‍

Upload Inspection Images

Additionally, you can mandate the inspector to upload pictures of the inspection process for further verification and analysis. Our camera block has a feature that disables inspectors from uploading an existing photo from their gallery and mandates them to click a live image and upload. It ensures that the pictures are not forged and are authentic. 

Upload Signatures of Concerned Personnel

Once the inspection process is over, the form can finally be signed-off by the concerned parties, including the field inspector and the site supervisor. The signature block is used to fulfill the purpose, which allows anybody to do a manual signature on the smartphone.

Works Without Internet

Apps designed with Clappia do not necessarily need an internet connection to work. The apps can work offline and the form data is stored in the smartphone. Once the internet connection is available, the data gets automatically synced up. This allows businesses to carry out field inspection in remote areas without an internet connection.
