Inspector (or above)

Inspections provide structure for site inspectors to complete their work. These can be set as checklists or fillable PDF forms. For example, you may use a checklist to complete a safety inspection on the job site.

Extra details such as issues, attachments, and comments can be added to each line item in an inspection checklist.

To start, you need to select an inspection template. Each template may have different fields to complete depending on how the Project Admin has configured them.

Select an inspection template

  1. From the main navigation menu, click Field and select Inspections.
  2. Select the location (or area) where you'll complete the inspection.
  3. Click New Inspection.
  1. Find the template you want to use by selecting a category or searching for it.
  2. Hover over the template you want to use and select:
  • Preview to view the layout of the inspection template. Click the left and right arrows to cycle through each template.
  • Assign to create and assign a blank inspection using this template.
  • Start to begin a new inspection using this template.

Tip!

Templates are set up and grouped by the Project Administrator. Fillable PDF templates are marked with the word 'Form'.
