Construction / Inspection Issues

4

  • Does the Work satisfy the contract requirements?
  • Remembering all the specs & plans.
  • How do I clearly document a quality issue?
  • How much of the work was actually verified? Where?
  • Is the inspection frequency meeting goal?
  • How can quality be verified more cost effectively?
  • How can we leverage technology to improve

documentation about the assets we were building?

  • IDR’s
  • Inspections
  • QC Forms
  • DBE/EEO forms
  • Force Account
  • Secure

Database

4

Optimal Inspector Experience = Better Data

  • Dynamic mobile form
  • Construction requirements preloaded
  • No document handling
  • Photos tagged automatically
  • GIS maps track Inspector Location
  • Works well for both Sr and Jr Inspectors
slide-5
SLIDE 5

Need to Find a Quality Record?

4

Users Access Project Records from Anywhere

  • Search by document query
  • Search by GIS map
  • Photo query
  • Custom data exporting
  • Summary web pages
  • No software required
slide-6

What is Quality?

4

Quality

  • Conformity to Requirements

Inspection

  • Verification that the Work

Conforms to the Requirements

slide-7
SLIDE 7

11

Requirement Verification

Mobile Forms Pre-loaded with Contract Requirements

  • Inspectors use automatic filters to

instantly sort 1000’s of requirements to obtain only those applicable to the observed work

  • All applicable requirements are

available to the inspector, regardless

  • f severity rating
  • Mandatory checklists available
  • Mobile forms work online or offline
slide-8
SLIDE 8

7

Objective Evidence Required

Objective Evidence Required

  • Inspectors may record whether

the work is nonconforming or conforming

  • Photo evidence is required

whenever nonconforming work is discovered.

slide-9
SLIDE 9

13

Markup Photos for Context

Inspectors Mark-up Photos

  • Inspectors can provide captions
  • Mark-ups provide insight into the

inspector’s findings

slide-10
SLIDE 10

11

Project-Specific Lookup Lists

Self-Managing Lookup Lists

  • Inspectors use lookup lists for data

validation – contractors, foreman, equipment etc.

  • Lists are linked to the database
  • Inspectors add new items to list as

needed for project – without any support resources

slide-11
SLIDE 11

11

List Filtering Increases Efficiency

Built-In List Filtering

  • Inspectors filter through potentially

long lists with radio button filters

  • Child lists are filtered on the

selection made in the parent list –

(such as foremen names filtered by selected contractor)

slide-12
SLIDE 12

7

Built-In Data Security

Site Source Record Authenticity

  • Inspectors can only enter data into

the system in their own name

  • Signature blocks required for all

submissions

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Verification Reports Document Quality

Requirement Verification Report

  • Location of the inspection
  • Actual contract requirements

verified

  • Inspector findings noted
  • Objective photo evidence provided

relative to each verified requirement

4

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Dynamic Reports Automatically Adjust

4

Reports are Generated On- Demand

  • Report size will adjust to the volume of

data/photos collected

  • Data is stored in the system, not PDF’s

– reducing the overall storage requirement

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Images with Context Provide Clarity

4

Reports Include Large Images

  • Screen shots of plans, shop

drawings, standard drawings with markups

  • Photo captions include alignment

name with station and offset

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Workflows Provide Quality Control

4

Automatic Email Sent with Each Submission

  • Inspectors review submissions for

accuracy

  • Managers/supervisors can be

included in workflows

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Nonconforming Work Tracked Automatically

4

Nonconforming Work Report

  • Automatically created for each

nonconforming requirement

  • Includes map snippet with GIS

location

  • Alignment name, station and offset
  • Nonconforming contract requirement
  • Inspector findings with thumbnails of

photo evidence

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Nonconforming Work Tracked Automatically

4

Issue Resolution History

  • Resolution history table provided
  • New record entered into table each

time inspector or contractor updates the status

  • Image thumbnails are associated to

the status update

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Nonconforming Work Tracked Automatically

4

Photos Document the Nonconforming Issue

  • Large images of thumbnails

provided

  • Alignment name, station and
  • ffset included
  • Inspector markups provide clarity

to expedite resolution

slide-20
SLIDE 20

9

Nonconforming Work Report Query

  • Dashboards enable users to query Verifications and Nonconforming

Work Reports by keyword or project filter criteria

slide-21
SLIDE 21

9

Nonconforming Work Map

  • GIS maps display the location of Verifications and Nonconforming Work Reports
slide-22
SLIDE 22

9

Nonconforming Work Map

  • Users zoom to see project records in relation to plan graphics
  • Popup windows provide information about selected records
slide-23
SLIDE 23

Contractors Update Issue Status in Field

4

Nonconforming Work Update Form

  • The form is linked to the current list of all
  • pen nonconforming work issues
  • When corrective action is complete, the

Contractor updates the issue status to automatically request verification inspection

  • Contractor may request additional

information for clarification when needed

slide-24
SLIDE 24

7

Color Coded Maps Provide Status

Colors Indicate Issue Status

  • Dot colors change when status of

nonconforming work issues are revised

  • Red = Corrective Action Needed
  • Yellow = Ready for Verification
  • Green = Closed
  • Managers can view in real time
slide-25
SLIDE 25

  • Verification goals derived from risk

management plan

  • Owners prescribe programmatic or project-

specfic verification goals at their discretion

Benefits to be Realized

  • No time wasted handling paper or

pdf’s. Inspectors spend time inspecting work. Cost savings.

  • Contractors appreciate

transparent document system. Increases efficiency

  • Project documentation can be

standardized and audited remotely

  • Abundant number of photos

translates to fewer disputes
