Business value

In many cases, field service technicians need to capture a set of answers to questions as part of offering service. For instance, a technician might need to conduct safety checks before servicing a piece of equipment, or perhaps need to inspect pressure levels or remaining liquid in a machine. In other cases, technicians might need to perform an inspection after the work is complete, or the inspection itself might constitute the entire work order. Performing inspections is a key part of proactive service and preventing additional break-fix service calls.

Feature details

  • Create an inspection through a designer experience.
  • Associate an inspection with a work order.
  • Complete an inspection via a mobile experience (including the Field Service Mobile application).
  • Capture the inspection results for analysis or further action.
