CHALLENGES IN SAFETY TESTING AND TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT
The tasks and skills in the field of safety testing and expert reporting for certification are diverse — from protecting life and health, to preventing costly damage to property or assessing damage that has occurred. Certain sectors cannot yet rely on the Internet of Things. The property sector for example, requires in-person viewings for real estate appraisals. The coordination of appointments is often a challenge, especially when your appraisers and experts must complete a unique mix of multi-skilled tasks in a short window. Customer expectations of service are increasing, and the associated cost pressures are rising.
Suitable software helps to digitise these processes and makes planning and order processing much more efficient. It reduces the workload in the back office through continuous, optimised dynamic scheduling. It also ensures real-time data exchange between head office and field staff. Thanks to optimised appointment and route planning, modern tools also ensure that you save miles, time and CO2.
