kick the paper habit to the curve

1. Kick the Paper Habit to the Curb

Fire protection systems don’t have room for error, so neither should your filing system. The unfortunate truth is that keeping all of your work on paper leaves too many chances for error. The only way to make sure you never lose that piece of paper with a contact’s name or your next appointment is to go digital! Inspect Point gives you that ability by putting all of your contacts, jobs, and technicians all in the same digital space

2. Keep your Administration and Technicians on the Same Page

Human error is inevitable, but in our business it’s unacceptable. Never let your technicians make a mistake on when or where they need to be. Likewise, you need to keep your administration on the same page. Inspect Point allows your administrative staff to schedule and dispatch technicians from their computer. Our technicians are as good as it gets, but removing the opportunity for error will keep their records of success at 100%.

Time is money. We’ve all heard that one before, and when you run a company, you know how true it is. So why would you ever waste time with communication between your technicians in the field and your office? Inspect Point allows you to view inspection reports as soon as they’re completed. That means your office can start working on scheduling services and repairs before your technician has even left the site.
