Field inspection photo reports
Turn the photos and notes field crews capture on site into an organized inspection report, with possible issues flagged for a qualified person to confirm.
Where it starts
The trigger.
A crew finishes a site visit, inspection or job and uploads photos and notes.
How it runs today
- Photos sit in phones and shared folders with no link to the job.
- Reports are typed up later from memory and notes.
- Possible issues are spotted late, or only when someone reviews every photo.
The workflow
Four bounded steps.
Each step has an owner and a stop rule.
- 01 / Capture
Crews upload photos and short notes to one place, tagged with the site and job.
- 02 / Organize
Group photos by location and item, and pull key details from the notes.
- 03 / Flag
Highlight photos that may show damage, obstructions or missing items, with the reason.
- 04 / Confirm
A qualified reviewer confirms or dismisses each flag and approves the report.
Where people stay in control
Approval points.
- A qualified person confirms every finding before it goes into the report.
- Reports are approved before they reach a customer or regulator.
How we would measure it
Against a baseline.
Measured before and after, on the same work.
Time from site visit to approved report.
Share of flags confirmed by reviewers.
Follow-up visits needed because of missing photos or details.
